www.explodingdog.com God has been teaching me that I do not have to be perfect in order for people to like me. I dont have to be skinny, perfect and a servent for God to want to love me. I have this dumb lie going around in my head that "yeah God loves me but i am not going to be first picked for anything unless i do everything right and i am skinny and a servent." I think that about humans too. I have such an insecurity about people rejecting me because i dont do things right all the time and that people are burdened by my problems. I compare myself to others and i feel judgments from people. But the thing is i am creating an unrealstic expectation upon myself to be something that i cannot. So, i am going to fail, and then i will think that no one will want to be around me. man how screwed up is that! God is showing me how much he loves me. Thank you God for not having these espectaions of me. | | |
| Hey everyone! How is it going? Well it has been a week since i got out to colorado. It has been great and woderfull. I love my job, as a lifeguard, and i love the people that are out here. I can say that it has been hard as well. even though it has been a week God has been really moving in my heart. He has shown me how i really view myself and how that contradicts to the way that the bible says that he views me. I know that it is going to take a while to get through all those lies that i have about myself but i know that i am on my way to finding my idenity in christ. I am getting so close to people already. I am so excited to see what is going to happen next.
Love ya
beth

| Hey, So it is about 12 hours till we take off for colorado. I am excited beyond words and nervous at the same time. There is going to be a lot of bonding and a lot of awesomness going to happen this summer. So what it is going to look like tonight is dinner at 6pm, worship, prayer, and send off. Then we are going to bed and waking up at the butt crack of dawn and leaving at 6am. Tomorrow is going to be longest day traveling. We are going to end up in Nabraska (aka the longest state to drive through). Then the next day is going to be driving until we reach fort collins , CO. we are going to get there in enough time to mull around town for the evening. I like Fort Collins. It is a cute town on the outskirts of the mountains. ahhhh.. I am so excited. but i dont think that it has hit me yet. Hopefully i will be posting a lot this summer. I want to keep everyone updated on what is going on with me this summer. OH... my friend just got married yesterday. I was not able to go to the wedding because it was all the way in Illinios. but, i really wanted to go to it. I wanted to go so bad. but my summer roomie got to so i am going to sqeeze the details out of her. So, that is me right at the moment. I dont know what else to write. Love ya all beth | | |
| Hey all, Wow! it has been a while since i last updated. Well, i struggle to put my thoughts out so. well ya know! So, i am done with classes for the summer. I made it safely home and i am just waiting until i get to the time when i leave for colorado. I still am going to colorado LT and i am super excited for this time. I had such a powerful summer last time and i know that i am going to have an even better summer. I am so much more healthier, emotionally, and i have such a fantastic group of people that i am going out there with. here are some goals that i wish to accomplish: 1. Gain a better understanding of my identity in Christ. To know my worth and to stop relying on others to tell me who i am. 2. grow closer to God 3. Grow as a leader 4. Grow closer to my friends and make new friends those are just some of my goals for the summer. I cannot talk for much longer. supper is waiting for me! beth | | |
