Make It Happen…

For all of the advice, I thank you.  Each and every word lays heavy on my heart. 

You may be happy to know that I’m feeling much better today, now that I’ve made my decision – Art School it is!  I am just going to have to buckle down and work and pray harder than ever before.  I know that if I set my mind to it, with God by my side, I can make it happen.  Oh and here’s a special shout out to the fabulous Britt Nicole, her music is truly what got me through yesterday.  (My apologies about the scatterbrainedness of this post)

So what are you waiting for?  What do you have to lose?  Your insecurities – they try to hold to you.  But you know you’re made for more, so don’t be afraid to move.  Your faith is all it takes and you can walk on the water too.
<3 Britt

I had someone suggest I start a photography blog as a way to grow as an artist.  Thoughts?

Soundtrack – When I look to the Sky – Train

Today was sooo good, a near 180 from the way things had been.  Such a vast contrast in such a short amount of time: this is why I believe in the power of prayer.  I am beginning to realize that I can’t do this on my own – why would anyone want to?  Thank you all for your prayers, for your support and understanding.  When we stand by each other in Christ, there is absolutely nothing we can not do!
