A week too full or a week to praise!

This week has been a little bit of a hectic one! Everything turned out fine of course!
I was super busy the first couple days trying to get homework done from being gone over last weekend. We are heading to week 9, then dead week and finals are approaching! So glad that everything got done, but I was getting a little antsy. Catching up on homework, making sure my projects are getting further then they are. I spend every week the same. Which is fine, at times variety pops in there too. That I like!

This week I was preparing for a music mini lesson I had to do in my class. My late, 7pm-9:40pm class. Gosh I had no idea what I was doing with my mini lesson, and kept thinking it wouldn't turn out the way I want it to. Guess what! It turned out great! (Or at least I am hoping great) In class we did everyones mini lesson, I was second to last. I would sing, dance, clap and move around the room. I wanted mine to be up, sorta of I could just be done. It was finally my turn, and it seemed that my class really liked what we were doing! Thank goodness! I really liked it too. Probably a highlight of my week was the mini lesson. And now, we are pretty much done with that class!!

Thursday a friend texted me, asking if I was going to the concert Friday. In my head I am thinking, I have no idea what concert she is talking about so no. Turns out some friends from Ocean Shores were going to a concert in Portland. I did some thinking of what my Friday was looking like and decided to go! And man am I glad I did. I could have used the excuse that I had too much homework (which I do all the time, my fault) or that I didn't have the money. My roommate Ashley came along too, and it was her first concert! A girl my friend Kelsey knew needed a ride to the concert so I invited her to come along! We had decided to leave early to get there around three; they don't let people in the doors till 6. It was such a beautiful day! I personally love love love the rain, but was glad that the sun was shining, because that could have been a much longer wait with rain. So I am waiting for my friends to call and show up at the concert. I live half the distance they do. I see a bright orange sweatshirt walking by, and it is Kristy and everyone else!! So good to see my friends. So we are waiting around, it was a fun evening. Actually fun is an understatement! It was an amazing night! Awesome singers, packed arena, great prayers, and wonderful friends. So nice to be able to spend the whole night worshipping the Lord with friends and fellow believers! Man I wish I would have known about this concert before. Guess what I am doing next year around this time!

I had a good week. I go through my times of deep thoughts and try to seek what the Lord is telling me. This morning Pastor Sean asked us if we are blocking anyone from seeing the Cross? Then he also asked us if there is anything blocking us from the Cross? Puts your life into perspective. If I am living everything I have and do for the Lord and are allowing people to see that. Or if I am going on with life and not caring about showing what Jesus did for all of us. That it is all a free gift and all you have to do is accept this gift! The gift of Jesus dying for our sins is a gift too many take for granted. I want to show everyone that I have accepted the gift. I want Him to use me on this Earth as an example of who He is. I love being able to hear new things or be challenged with how I am living my life.

I am ready for a new week. Made a morning date with my friend Ciara! Have Young Life and prayer going on Tuesday and so much more! I am psyched with what the Lord has to show me and how He is going to use me this week!

Hope everyone had an awesome weekend and has a great week :)
Love to all,
Lyssa
