A Collision

Wow...

Talk about being knocked back down to Earth. For those of you that didn't know, I was in a car accident (nothing serious) this past Thursday. It was pretty scary because I was the only person in my family who wasn't out of town. Thankfully, everyone is okay. The whole thing was definately a big wake up call for me. I just realized that I have been trying to control everything in my life and I can't do that. I obviously couldn't control my vehicle on Thursday. I just feel like I have been constantly putting myself in a position where I am following a way of thinking that is bound to get me in trouble at some point but I seem to think I can control myself and stop when things get out of hand. But what if things start catching up with me? What if I stop outrunning all of these problems and let them hit me like a ton of bricks?

I am slowly coming to the realization that God has been trying to get my attention refocused on Him for quite a while now. I am going to have to start compromising my wants for His will and as much as I want it to be easy for me it isn't. I'm finding it so difficult to let go. So difficult to just hand it all to Him. Why is it so hard this time?

I don't even know where to start. Please keep me in your prayers that I may find some guidance and get a little more clarified. I love you all so much!

hello all!

i am currently in new york. it's been interesting and loads of fun but it as been really challenging too. i've met a few other christians here and have had some good talks but overall, this trip has really challenged not only my dependence on God but my sureness in all of my stances. if anything, i know that this will make me stronger but at the moment, it is getting pretty hard. i should be returning to New Bern sometime this weekend and i'm looking forward to it. i have missed you guys so much and i have a ton of things to discuss with all of you temple folk!

it is interesting to me because this trip has really been somewhat of a taste of college on a non-christian campus. IT'S HARD! i'm only here 10 days and i'm still struggling. i actually got into a conversation the other day when someone asked me if i thought homosexuality was wrong and i replied yes. they became very emotional (we have all had a lack of sleep) and the conversation ended right there. because i didn't get an opportunity to share my testimony with him, i felt that things were really unfinished and unexplained. so i wrote him a letter yesterday in hopes that maybe he'd be up to reading it. he did...and he wrote me back. it was awesome. i believe that God really used this interaction to encourage me in witnessing to people. i think that the kid i talked to really got a taste of God's love and care through me and that is suck a blessing.

well i'm gonna go because i have some art to waork on so i will see you all later when i get home. please remember me in your prayers.

i love you all and am remembering you every day!

so yea..it's been a while.

guess who's 17!!!...yay me!...lol

okay that was lame. hmm...what to say. new bern, i'm ready to leave. i'm ready to be gone and somewhere else. some place new and exciting. a city, the mountains. i want to see new faces, learn new things and be on my own. waiting another year for this freedom doesn't sound so appetizing at the moment. but i can't complain. life is going well for me...except prom night, well not quite. prom and the after party were great...it's from about 6 to 9 that it completely sucked you know what. sorry guys. and now i'm sick.

what an exciting life it is. it seems odd to me sometimes to come up here and post things. i mean i guess i just never really feel like i have anything to say. besides, if i say it all up here anyways then i'll never tell anyone anything in person. no more person to person contact. that's what we're missing here.

claire mills is gone. i am sorry to say. i miss her dearly and am saving up as we speak to go see her. i know she is going to have a great time in oklahoma though. from what i understand there is a lot to do there so that's always good. can't wait for you to show me around claire bear!

well i guess that is all i have to say for now.

i miss my peas but i will be up to see them soon!...hopefully.

good night all.

Yesterday, Today & Forever

wow...it's been a while. I must say that I am sorry I haven't been keeping up with all of y'all but I get here when I can. Anyways, things are going well. The Chris Thomlin/Matt Redman concert was great...I wish more of us could have gone though!

Things are going well and so far I am liking this semester. My days fly by but it's helping me to live a little more in the moment instead of worrying or thinking about my future. 3 hours of art every morning isn't too bad either.

I've just finished reading Wild at Heart, the male companion to Captivating, and you guessed it...I strongly recommend this book to both males as well as females. It gives us girls a different perspective on things. If any of you boys have read it, give me your feedback, I'd like to get a male perspective on how John Eldridge explains things.

My latest professional interest is teaching. Teaching English and Literature to be more spicific. Weird huh? Anyways...I hope you all are doing well.

Shout out to all my 11th grade girls! Mo, Brittany, Claire, Jess, Hope, Marianna, Abby, Alicia and Natalia! You all are my strength at many many times. I love you dearly for it.

Thanks to Phil and Alli for inviting Rob and I to the concert. We had an awesome time and I mean awesome.

Thankyou Miss Aimee Epperson for always being there and remaining a spontaneous yet constant influence in my life.

Thankyou Rob for all of it. It's been so great being with you, watching you grow..I'm so proud of you!...and having someone to help keep me sane in this crazy place!

I love you guys and I hope this finds you in good spirits!

Love,

Becca
