Power Soccer

Hey guys! Guess what!! Today I was at Vocrehab taking care of some stuff for my school and a really nice guy came up to me and started talking to me about this sport called Power Soccer. Its a program here in Nevada that focuses on sports designed for the disabaled community. I got so excited. I almost jumped out of my chair. I have been looking for something like this in Vegas for a long time. So I was invited to attend there upcoming game. How cool is that! I have never been a sports kind of girl but soccer is my number one favorite. So I will keep you guys posted on the latest news. I am supposed to attend a game on Nov. 7th. Everyone have a great Friday!

My Prayer

Lord I know I have been pretty busy. Nonetheless, that is no excuse! So I just wanted to take a moment and reflect on Your loving kindness. There are no words to comprehend how great You are. I am dumbstruck by Your awesomeness. Without You I am like a ballon without air. I need You every second of everyday. Help me to breathe You in. You are my air and living water until the day You call me home. Help me to live my life like You want me too so I can be an example to others around me. I want to leave a legecy that people will remember and carry with them always. I will aways thank You, I will always praise You, I will aways love You, even unto the end and there after. Then we will be together for an eternity. I can't wait to gaze upon Your face. It is than that I will see Your nail percied hands, wounded side, and where they placed that crown of thorns on Your head....all for me! Finally, I will sit at Your feet and wash them with beautiful fragrance. Just like You do for us. You wash away all of our sins until we are found completely blameless in Your sight. Thank You! I love You with all my heart! You are my everything!

Without You...

I am sitting here listening to Kirk Franklin and he wrote a song called Without You. It talks about without Him were just a song with no end, like having a heart that won't mend, were just actors on a stage, a child who's lost his way, wouldn't be here today without you. Amen to that my friends. Today at work I was having church with one of my other coworkers. Strange I know but there is another Christian lady who I work with and we were in the back listening to our (what I like to call) holy bump, Jesus freak, gospel music lol. It was so much fun and I don't know if you are allowed to have that much fun at work but oh well. :) She is so funny, great to work with, and such a blessing! If there's one thing Iv'e learned it's that God is all knowing, mighty, and powerful! He is in control of all your situations. Tonight, He says be still and know! Don't know why but I felt that I should put that out there. Consider it Reyda's nugget's of the day. But anyway, I think I'm gonna turn in. I have my little cousin's soccer game to go to tomorrow. I am so excited. I love going to these games and I'm looking forward to spending time with my family. I will let you guys know how the game turns out. Peace out! Oh and when you get a chance read Psalm 42.

God's Great Faithfulness!

Howdy Friends :)

Church was so good today. Pastor John was talking about how the enemy loves to bring us down when things are going just the way they need to be. He said as long as we have a willing heart God will do His part to make sure we are taken care of. It is so good to know that someone will always be there for us no matter what, isen't it? People will always be in and out of our lives, but God is always present, everlasting! Every time I start getting discouraged or start stressing, He says, "It's going to be ok, be still." Then He sends ones close to me to confirm not to worry and that God is in control. THANK YOU LORD! I don't know how He does it, He just does. I guess that's just one of the great mystries of our great God. He never ceases to amaze me. I love Him so much! He is truely all that I need!

Hello There :)

It's been busy these last couple days, but God is good. I had two tests today and one of them was open book. Who doesn't love those kind of tests! Today in my enviormental science class my teacher was talking about how asprin is made from olive bark trees. I totally didn't know that. I guess you do learn something new everyday. I got the information today on the Praxis test that I have to take. I was happy about that even though, it costs $160! Yikes! Hopefully, I won't have to take the test over too many times lol. :) Either way, I know God will be with me every step of the way! Well guys I'm gonna turn in early...I am so exusted lol! Sweet dreams everyone. :)

Deep Reflections

I am sitting here listening to Rascel Flatts as I am writing this to you. I love his music. I know...I am such a country girl. I love it! Country music is fun and most of the time depending on the artist their music tells a story. Sometimes their stories are sad or encouraging. Then there are those songs that make you just want to get up and dance!

I don't know guys, I do have to say that I have been in a strange mood today. I'm not sure what it is but I think I'm afraid...afraid of lo0sing the dream. Loose everything I have worked so hard for. I mean I have come so far and I am almost there, but I feel like I'm slipping. I feel like Joseph. I mean he had a dream, but really how important was it to him? He fought for that dream. I mean he went from slave, to prision, to being king. So no doubt he certainly had to face some major giants. He had to decide, "Ok, really how important is this dream to me?" I guess now here I am asking me the same question. This drem is very important to me, but I'm tired of fighting. I am always getting knocked down. But I guess that is what makes the fight worth while. Was she able to withstand the trials and tribulations of her life to reach the finish line?
Yes, my friends, as hard as it is, you as my witness, I have a dream. A dream to be the best teacher anyone has ever seen. A dream to see children reach their full potential and their deepest desires come true. I will live to see that dream come to pass. I will just keep running to the finish line without looking back. I have always been a fighter, since the first day I was born. I am not going to give up. So my dear ones, I will meet you at the finish line with the grand prize in my arms, held high for all to see!

Lord, I pray that You will help me and give me strength to reach that finish line. Renew my strength so that I can fly like an eagle! Teach me that when people say, "The joy of the Lord is my strength!" to live it out. I love You Lord and know that with You by my side I can get through anything that will come my way. Thank you for being me this far. I know You will be there too waiting for me at that finish line. I can't wait! Too see that beautiful face! See You there! :)
