God closes one door....

... and he opens another. You don't know how many people have said that to me in the past few days. Although my whole graduation transitions are thrown out the window, God did in fact open another door. Instead of going to school JUST for photography I am looking into Kwantlen at their fine arts program. They do have photography classes so I will still get to do what I love. But this will open doors for me, I can still be a photographer but I will be able to get other jobs as well. I'll probably go in September to get my certificate and if I enjoy the program maybe I will keep going to get my bachelors degree. Who knows? 

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." - Matthew 6:34

THINGS I LIKE #003.

 

I saw this recently on a blog and I flipped out. A lens mug! Annddd it's Canon. These babies range from $20.00 to about $60.00? I want. They're so sweet. Perfect idea for any photographer. Wink Wink ;)

wait for the Lord

completely broken

When people say don't take things for granted, you really shouldn't. Today has been one of the hardest days for me. I found out that someone i really look up too, someone i trust and someone who's been a leader for me for 6 years is gone. He's not gone gone, but it's not gonna be the same way. In that moment that he told all of us, i broke down. Why? Because i went back to the first day i met him, 6 years ago. And i can remember exactly how that day went. Over the years we've both grown and he has been the one that has helped me with my faith and grow closer to God. He is someone that is very important to me, and now in 2 months time he's gonna be gone. I imagined growing older and coming back to help him in his work. But now, he's gonna be gone. I feel so sorry for the kids that never got to even know him. It's not his fault this has happend. But i ask God why he does this, is this suppose to benefit us? Cause it sure doesn't feel like it. I can't imagine what he's going through, after working so hard and putting so much time into all of us kids. This has been his life for the past 6 years and now all he's done is totally done done. Being the oldest in the group i couldn't even keep it together when he told us the news. I thought that since i was the oldest i should be able to be an example to all the other kids. But instead, i broke down. He was a mentor to me, he was the one that i have always gone too. Now since he is gone, i dont want our group to end. i don't want us kids to be alone and not do anything. Just because he is gone doesn't mean we will stop. This will only make us stronger.

Sr High Camp

So i was gone for the weekend with my youth and our district camping. It was my first time going and i was super nervous and had no idea what to expect. If you know me i'm not the camping kinda girl, don't get me wrong i love it but my family never goes camping. Anyways it took us around 2 hrs to get to the camp. This year our camp was at Camp Squeah. We had our own little area in the camp where we set up our tents and did our thing. The great thing about Sr. High Camp is that it's not like normal camp. We don't have planned activities or have to wake up at a certain time. Unless you want breakfast and lunch you gotta wake up at 8:30am to get it. Then you can go back to bed and do whatever you like. But i had an amazing trip i met so many cool people did some awesome stuff and got to reconnect with God. Sometimes you need some time to relax and get away from all the distractions...

here's some pictures of my trip

wow.

Yeah, i'm blogging lots i know. aha but this is really crazy. so i signed up for a daily devotional so i get one in my email everyday. anyway i got my first one. and i can't believe what bible verse it was!!

Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. - Matthew 6:34

that verse is one of my favourites, wait not one of my favourites, it IS my favourite. it has helped me so much these past years worrying about life and whats next. and i can't believe this was the first daily devotional sent to me.  

God Is Good.
