This song is amazing, and fun, and wonderful to sing to. Not to mention who doesn't love Toby Mac, and this new girl, Jamie Grace, is beyond talented!!! And they love Jesus...woah.
So I just had to share this song because I'm pretty sure it sums up just about everything going on right now. :)
In other news...news that my mom loves to flaunt.
I'm graduating tomorrow. And I get to be the first to walk in, the last to speak, and the first to leave because.....I'm Valedictorian. Crazy, I always dreamed of it, but never imagined I'd actually make it. I'm excited though. I've worked 7 hours a day for the past 4 days on this speech and if I may, I believe it's pretty stellar (yeah, I said stellar...now what).
Anyway, I'm super excited and ready and confident and proud. And I am definitely NOT thinking about what comes after graduation...because that side is not quite as celebratory for me...not yet.
Side Note: Natalie, Bethany told me she invited you and you were going to come but things came up. Which I understand. And just the fact that you were planning on coming is probably the best graduation present I will receive, honestly. :) But I hope you know that we will have to meet one day, even if it's at Bethany's wedding with the is it "Fresh Prince of Elijay"? ;)
Back to the Post: I'm drinking coffee, can you tell by the way I'm writing. It's decaf...but I still have a feeling that I won't be very well-rested tomorrow. haha. It feels like Christmas Eve all over again.
This week I have had the time of my life hanging out with the same 4 people from school. And my one regret in high school is that I did not get to know these people sooner, and that once I did know them, that I did not treat them nicer and be more like Jesus. It's amazing what God does when you choose to live your life with an open heart, ready to take in the mercy of Christ and pour out His love on others.
I know this is only the beginning, even if it's hard to imagine. And I can't wait to see where God's going to take me. I know He won't leave me in one place for very long...He never does. :)
But I'm thankful for the memories, both fond and foolish. And it's amazing to me how much God can do...He rips you down to your core and clothes you in glory and all you can do in return in kneel in the dirt and wash the feet of those around you as He continues to pat your head and wash others while He stands over you. :) I love my Jesus....He's just brilliant, splendiferous, wonderful.
