The Fourth.

My day was alright.
I was too tired before church, but after being there for a few minutes and drinking a Mountain Dew I was wide awake. I really enjoy the people from my church... even though theres no youth exactly, I can't imagine a place I feel more at home.
Church was okay, we sang songs we always do, over and over again. I was lead singer today, for the second week in a row - which was nice. But the lead singer is coming back next week, which is relieving because being the lead singer is stressful because you have to, lead. lol. The sermon was alright, it was hard to stay awake like usual, but I got a lovely verse from it.

1 Thessalonians 5:4-11 (NIV)
4But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. 5You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. 6So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be alert and self-controlled. 7For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night. 8But since we belong to the day, let us be self-controlled, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. 9For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. 10He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. 11Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.

The only verse the pastor actually quoted was 1 Thessalonians 5:5... and so I investigated all the verses...

After church today I went home and watched The Secret Life of the American Teenager, which I adore even though it kind of sucks. After that I went to Chelseas church youth group. I was very very shy at first. But since they we're just working on their drama it was pretty easy going. I enjoyed it a lot actually, I think I'm going to go back now. :] The people were just lovely. And Chelsea has amazing talents. [I miss doing drama skits at my church...]

I didn't read the bible much today, since I was in church the entire time, lol. But I do plan on reading it after I get off, it always helps me get at peace and ready for the next day, which I'll deffinetly need since tomorrow is the first day back in two weeks. I can't believe I'm supposed to go back to school... I don't want to, at all. But I'm more prepared than ever, spiritually. I'm just ready for this semester to be over with, because this week is almost pointless to me. I'm sure I'll fail Biology and probably get a C in EnglishIII, since I'm like, failing english at my new school. I'm really looking forward to the new semester and the new chances. I'm sure that when the change comes I'll be able to take ahold of that.

I'll tell you all what verses I read tonight, tomorrow!
I hope you all have a wonderful first day back, and I'll talk to you later. :]
