Carmel Apples

Carmel apples are so amazing. One of my favorite parts of the fall is carmel apples. They are so yummy. My roomie brought home two pack of 6! Agh. I'm going to gain weight like crazy =). Green granny smith apples with carmel and nuts are the best ones! They will definitely be gone by the end of the week.

Christmas Break

I am so ready for Christmas break! It cannot come soon enough. I just can't wait to have like three weeks to relax and see friends from home. No homework, no stress, and home cooked food =). The only down side is packing up clothes and everything for that long of time.. it's going to be a pain to bring everything home! Christmas break will just be amazing and will be a great time with my family and church at home.

Isiah 40:30-31

This Bible verse has helped me through some troubles recently. The verse reads, "Even youths grow tired and weary. Even young men stumble and fall. But those who trust in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not be faint." This verse has been particularly helpful recently because I have gone through some difficulties during the college transition and this verse has reminded me that even strong and youthful people will endure hardships, but those who put their Trust in God will always have their spirit strengthened and rejuvenated.

Slow Fade

Be careful little eyes what you see
It's the second glance that ties your hands as darkness pulls the strings
Be careful little feet where you go
For it's the little feet behind you that are sure to follow

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
It's a slow fade, it's a slow fade

Be careful little ears what you hear
When flattery leads to compromise, the end is always near
Be careful little lips what you say
For empty words and promises lead broken hearts astray

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day

The journey from your mind to your hands
Is shorter than you're thinking
Be careful if you think you stand
You just might be sinking

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
Daddies never crumble in a day
Families never crumble in a day

Oh be careful little eyes what see
Oh be careful little eyes what you see
For the Father up above is looking down in love
Oh be careful little eyes what you see

This song is so true. No one falls apart in one day. Little things creep in people's life and slowly pull them
apart and bring them farther and farther away from God. The boundaries that were once made become farther
and farther away and the area becomes gray. The choices you make, the thoughts you think, will all have a price, and could lead to a slow fade.
