Lately I've been really negative and God has convicted me that I can't show the joy that Christ has given me if I'm not positive. I mean I'm not walking around saying I hate life or something, but the little stuff. Stuff like movies, I'm always the one that doesn't like them. Granted it may just be a bad movie, but I don't want to be the party pooper. Then we're doing this dance in choir and it's not the greatest, but really I auditioned for it and it's not going to be good if I go in with a stinky attitude. I know this is little trivial stuff, but I'm just really trying to work on a happier attitude all around. I want the joy I've found in Christ to come out in every aspect of my life. So that's that. I hope you have/ are having a fantastic day.
P.S. My friends and I were chosen to sing at graduation, which is a really sweet thing. We didn't think we would make it in because a lot of people were trying out. Then they asked us to choose a different song and it took us like two weeks, but we got one. It's by Natalie Grant and I'm really excited because the words say exactly what we would want to say. Here are the lyrics (I am so excited!!! Singing at graduation means singing in front of a LOT of people. There are about 400-500 kids in my senior class and we all get 20 tickets, we get more because we're a small class. But if you do the math that's like 8,000-10,000 people. Maybe I'm just calcualting this wrong, i don't think i am. That's a lot of people).
sometimes i get that overwhelming feeling
so sad those faces on TV
if i tried to make a difference would i help anyways
but then i stop and to myself i say
CHORUS:
so you wanna change the world
what are you waiting for
you say you're gonna start right now
what are you waiting for
it only takes one voice
so come on now and shout it out
give a little more
what are you waiting for
sometimes i feel a little helpless
seems like i can't do a thing
but anything is possible just you wait and see
good things happen if you just believe
CHORUS
someday somehow
gonna take that step
cause time is ticking away
right here right now
before it's too late
gonna face tomorrow today
CHORUS
