Extraordinary things

Oct 18th, 2012
 It is impossible to explain how much I was inspired, refreshed, and strengthen on that Thursday night, two days ago. In the beginning, when I clicked on Britt's website I thought at first it wouldn't work out. But it did.. and I finally got to see my dear friends, Charity and Angela after almost a year!! It was amazing!! We both love Group 1 crew and britt nicole and it was perfect. When the car pulled up to the Cunningham house, It was so worth all the waiting, planning, and  hoping to share a warm hug with the two of them. I love you guys! Catching up was so good. we talked about the usual teenage stuff; school, hobbies, Taylor swift, Facebook, video games, the worship bands we were going to see, all of it. the best was when we recalled past visits, staying up till 12am taking photo booth photos, listening to music, playing goofy games, being silly and ridiculous together." Good times." Charity says with a smile. Good times indeed. Those visits, talks, and hours spent together meant so much to me. they only come once, twice, or 5% maybe three times in a year. It's then I realize how much my far-away, long- distance friends mean to me. Time is precious, it goes by fast, and so we treasure every moment. Never hurrying on to the next thing. We arrived at the Britt nicole concert and I must say... I've never had so much fun this year( except for the time I went to see Titanic in 3d) this has been the best! we danced, worshipped, and sang with Royal Taylor, Group 1 crew, and Britt nicole. We cheered, hands held high. It was indescribably wonderful! and then there were those moments... of quiet reflection... talking to God with the soft sound of the gutair.. Britt''s beautiful voice softly worshipping, hugging people. I could feel and see Jesus in the room. See the smile and how proud he was of Blanca, Man well, britt, and royal taylor for .. encouraging their fellow friends in the Lord.. sharing their struggles with honesty and not hiding their imperfections.   And i knew.. he was honored and blessed by these whole-hearted servants who used their talents to glorify him.. who gave all the honor and fame to him. Towards the end of the concert, Britt let us up front. We danced and sang with her to " Gold". She even held Charity's hand and winked at her. I remember Charity saying afterward," her hands were soft." :) It was so sweet of her. B. N. ( Britt nicole)  shared with us her goal in being here, that she wanted it to be more.. far more.. than a concert. She wanted us to leave there refreshed, with hope, and knowing," God has not given up on you. If you think you've let him down so many times that he has just abandoned you, than don't give up hope. You think you've waited so long.. he'll never come. But he is is here.. he has not let go of you. and he's still holding on to you.. he's still there and he says you're beautiful.. just the way you are.'' Beautiful. I'm beautiful. Charity is beautiful. angela is beautiful. Every one of us. Yes, we have made mistakes. But God is changing us and he doesn't expect us to be perfect.. to always do what we're supposed to.  He loves us for our uniqueness, extraordinaryiness  our talents, personalities. We shouldn't try to be anyone but ourselves. This is the main thing that has really changed my life. Britt nicole can never know how much she has done for me. It was by no means ORDINARY. Group 1 crew and royal taylor can never know how much I was encouraged and full of hope afterward. Life is extraordinary and beautiful, even with it's hurts, joys, pains. It wouldn't be beautiful if it weren't for every part that makes beautiful.. even the hardships.. even the seemingly endless nights of waiting on God and wondering.. crying... feeling like we are never enough.  So many times I've thought I wasn't enough, called myself names and thought" You're hopeless." but I'm not supposed to listen to that voice. I'm supposed to listen to God's voice telling me" You are beautiful. Don't be afraid. I'm with you and I have an amazing plan for your life. So live with passion and hope and meaning in me" And to believe it.. not just say it.



Thank you guys so much!
