The Indianapolis conference

Whoa, what have you all been up to? I majorly miss you guys. But here goes on the Indy conference...I actually don't have any pictures. But. aaaannnyways....

At the conference, I saw Rachel Jorgensen, Jessica Friesien, James Lindley, Amy Ortiz, LeeAnn Martens, Sarah Ferraro, Nate what'shislastname (I don't think he remembers me), and some other people from my CI team...Andrew Jorgie (Rachel's bro), Anna Grier, Kat Taylor, umm...oh! Mr. Gothard :), and I met some new people....

At the conference, the Lord really just shouted one thing at me. I tend to hold tightly to people, expecting them to fulfill me, love me, make me happy, and satisfy me in general. God and God alone is worthy of that place in my life! What am I doing, replacing Him with these human idols? I don't know, but it's silly. It helps me to write things out, so I wrote out a bunch of names of friends and...other...people...and gave up my expectations of these people to the Lord.

I was a COMMIT leader, which I enjoy with my whole heart, and I got to give my testimony there to the the whole group. I look out on those girls and think, where will they be in two years? The same place I was? Or will they be given over wholly and devoted to the Lord?

Now I'm doing the graphic design class at ITC, and actually got to see our own Anna Crigger and her family for three days...we said goodbye tonight . I hate goodbyes. But it was great seeing her...now I'll only have my new buddies and Tyler and Ryan to smile, talk, and laugh with. Or cry and pull out my hair with, if my creativity for layout is exhausted...oh! my word...I'm going to die. I'm so tired.

Well, come on, give me lots of comments, and I so am looking forward to seeing all of you! In heaven, if not earlier. Keep close to the Lord, and all your ducks will fall in a row. That...is not the right expression. But too bad. I'm tired.
