Late Start

It's day 2 of my blog and I'm beginning to think that early mornings are the time for writing!

Today I was off to a late start as I slept in til noon after babysitting til 2am last night. Nonetheless, I was able to pack loads of fun into my remaining daylight hours.

I showered and cleaned up, and was out the door by 2pm to go shopping with my friend Virginia, in order to buy a birthday gift for our friend Emily's Sweet 16. After hitting up Walmart, Target, and the good 'ol mall, we had a plethora of items for Emily's gift. (While at Walmart, I found applesause in a pouch that was only sixy cents!! It's my new favorite thing!)

After a quick stop at Virginia's, we were off to Emily's party. It was lots of fun playing Encore, a white elephant gift circle (total madness!), and eating lots of food. It was a great party!

After the party, Virginia, Caroline, and I rented the movie Charlie St. Cloud. Lots of things made sense as this was my second time seeing it! Man do I love that movie.

Anyways, it's currently 1:19am and I'm going to our traditional church service that begins at 9, so I have an early morning. Nonetheless, God is still good! He never ceases to amaze me each and every day!!

I'll end today's post with a question....this is for all the atheists out there, or anyone unsure of their faith.
How do you explain the beauty of our earth? I mean, when you're at the beach and you look out into the ocean, don't you think about the fact that none of that could have "just happened"? God's fingerprints are all around us. If you think that believing in a God just seems like too much to wrap your mind around, think about this. Our world is spinning millions of miles per hour and we don't feel it. We don't fall off. Or how about the people in Australia or countries on the bottom of the globe. They're 'hanging upside down' but to them, they're standing rightside up. When I think about the fact that I believe all this about our earth and don't question it, but sometimes I doubt or question God....it confirms my faith that much more.

I don't mean to ramble, I'm just curious about other views. Feel free to comment with questions or feelings. I'd love to hear from you!
