my  mom set me up.
with a guy - to go out with tonight.
and well. ...i'm not really thrilled. I mean..he's not really it. I talked with him a bit about God and stuff...
and well, he was raised Catholic, so he doesn't really know a personal God and it sparked his interest to know that there's a loving, personal God out there.
I can't say much else about it. it was fun to be taken out by a guy- but it was weird to hang out with two people he always hangs out with- at work. so, i was the fifth wheel. and i felt like it.
he plays video games, definately a no-no for me.
but i can't judge a book by it's cover, and i don't intend on taking this new friendship anywhere else...so, i have nothing to be afraid of.

so i am still, very much on my own...in this little house on 4 Mile road. and it's alright. cuz I'm with Jesus and HE makes it worth it all.
and now i have a mission.
go to Dental Ass. school- graduate (and go further, if Jesus tells me to), and go to a country to help the poor to have a good smile.
i have a mission.
"I'm on a mission from God..."
so said the Blues Brothers!

ciao for now.

just didn't care about the name of all the plants in the forrest???And you care about teeth? April, you're going to go stir crazy if you go after Dental stuff. I have this image of you working in the dentist office, going home and throwing a fit because you're not happy. What makes you happy?

I've seen several things that make you happy: 1 - Worshiping God. 2 - being outside and getting to do things outside. 3 - Talking and reaching out to the hippies.

I see 1 being your whole life, 2 as a possible career (forest ranger, research assistant, biology researcher, archeologist), and 3 as a future ministry (say that commune you've talked about).

And here's a thought: Don't settle for less than God wants - and He wants you happy.

yeah-
but JC, you gotta belive me,...what kinda job thing can i get if i go into something like that? anyways, I'm pretty sure this IS what God wants me to do- AND i'll get the opportunity to travel, with being a dental assistant/hygenist. I could help out with mission and stuff to africa- (which Iwould love to go to!),
i'm just saying, i'm not willing to put EVEN more years of my life into going for something like Biology orsomething...although i do like it. i don't mind the dental thing either.
