fall is here.

well what a beautiful fall morning it is. Jesus is good! i know i say that a lot but i just keep realizing more and more each day. its really cool. i woke up today wide a wake...and it was 7:30 in the morning. that's not normal for me. i also woke up wanting to go visit the other beauty school today, franklin academy. Not just wanting to visit but feeling like i really really need to. So I'm going tomorrow at 12 to look at it and see if i like it better. I thought since i was feeling so strongly about it this morning that God might be placing a peace upon my heart and showing me a direction on to what to do and where to go so i was feeling pretty good about it and then i show up at school and there is a new girl coming into my class. that made me so confused because she is also going to be full time (staying until 2) which means i would have someone to talk to and learn with. which as been my problem from the start. not having anyone here to learn with me. so now I'm all confused again. i guess i will just see how it goes tomorrow when i visit the other school. and like Alex said i just have to keep praying about it.

on another note, a kinda sad note. i wont be seeing my boo much at all until next week. he cant go to pigeon forge with us this weekend because he has to work. i was hoping he would be able to because one, i would get to spend time with him and two, he deserves a break. i met him last night at panera he was doing homework and the poor thing was so stressed. it made me sad. he had had a rough Monday. I'm ready for this week to be over for him and for me. but no worries because I'm praying for him :)

yesterday i read Isaiah 6 and wow God humbled me so much. I started Isaiah like a week ago i guess and honestly its been kinda depressing because all God is talking about is the destruction that is going to happen to those who don't believe and clearly that doesn't apply to me. but there has been verses here and there that have stood out to me. like for example....Isaiah 1:18 " No matter how deep the stain of your sins, I can remove it. I can make you as clean as freshly fallen snow." hearing that made me think of something i read in my Jesus time like a year ago saying "Soak me in your laundry and ill come out clean, scrub me and ill have a snow-white life..set these once broken bones to dancing" man that's good stuff! and should be so encouraging to hear. Another verse i liked a lot is Isaiah 3:10 "But all will be well for those who are godly. Tell them, " You will receive a wonderful reward!" I liked that because through all this destruction and evil time God still promises peace for his lovers. i liked that a lot. he is good! Then i got to Isaiah 6 and like i said he humbled me so incredibly much. I'm sure all of you have heard the song that goes a little something like this "i saw the Lord seated on the throne. He is clothed in glory and exalted high. The train of his robe filled the temple and angles gathered round him and cried. You are holy oh so holy. you are holy Lord of all" That song brings back precious memories for me because me and miss michelle peters use to sing it constantly...at the top of our lungs :) another reason for liking that song so much is because every time i hear it it paints a beautiful picture in my head of heaven. Well i say all that because that is what Isaiah 6 is talking about. And yesterday when i read it i realized yet again of how small i am and how big God really is. he blows my mind and leaves me standing in awe. and then today i read Isaiah 7 and the verse that i loved in this chapter was the last part of verse 9. it says "If you want me to protect you, learn to believe what i say" I read that and it just made me laugh a little. God already knew we were going to doubt him and have little faith so he just told us straight up to just trust him. Just to expect him and he can and will do great things.

A lot of times when I'm reading the bible i think man God was so good then and look at all the amazing things he did. well um excuse me katie, HELLO! God is the same yesterday today and forever. meaning, he can still do those same exact things he did then. he just have to expect him to. make sense? i hope so!

I'm so glad fall is finally here. I'm ready for cute jackets and cuddling up with my star wars blanket! :). give Jesus this day. you cant do it with out him. let him regin in your heart. allow him to consume you. that's all i got. have a wonderful day in Christ Jesus :)
