When life throws you lemons... you get lemons...

These past few weeks SO MUCH has happened...

I got my first ticket! (which is a miracle that I haven't already had one) <-- thats for another time

I dropped my phone and the pixels broke (very small crack its not that big of a deal)

I have been struggling to cope with my emotions... (Im not usually a crier... BUT MY WORD CAN I CRY)

Not only that but I've had a bunch of random things thrown at me... and its odd because when I think Oh no something else happens here come the tears... I just laugh and move on... But when Im laughing and having a good time... I have to walk away for a second and have a secret cry session... LIKE WHATS HAPPENING TO ME!!

These past few weeks have been torture... Every day I wake up thinking Lord just help me get ready... I get in my car and pray that he will help me get wherever I'm going... I get to work or school and pray that I can make it through... I get home and pray that I can make it through the night with out breaking down...

Through all of this there have been strange things happening... God things... BIG ONES! For the first time in my life I have come to an agreement with myself that I really dont care how people perceive me... The only View I care about is Christs view on my life...

I want Him to look at me and say well done good and faithful servant... NOW dont get me wrong I have, am, and will make mistakes but I'm giving all of me to Him...

Im done thinking that Im in the PIT and I cant get out...

when really im only in knee deep but because I am constantly looking down I forget about my surroundings...   And now Im looking up focusing on Him and Im finding myself closer and closer to the SOLID GROUND (its cheesy but how I feel!)

Im done with worrying if people are lying about me or saying false things about me... I am done with feeling sorry for myself!

I am a WOMAN OF GOD! I AM STRONG IN HIM! not through my own strength but through the strength he puts in me!

I am proclaiming my love and affection for the Lord now... To everyone! THERE IS NO GOING BACK!!! THOUGH NONE GO WITH ME STILL I WILL FOLLOW!!!!!

Family, friends, co-workers... May look at me like I'm crazy... or out there... BUT IM DONE LIVING FOR THEM!!!
I WANT TO GLORIFY THE LORD!!! NOT MYSELF!!! I WANT TO LITERALLY BE A REFLECTION OF CHRIST!

My heart has been so heavy lately and Im laying my burden out there and I am moving forward!

I am no longer concerned with the things I have done in the past, and the lies that have been said against me... Im done with the drama life throws at me... Im done living a worldly lifestyle and yet claiming to live for the one TRUE KING!

Im working on myself! and it wont be over night! All I need is prayer! LOTS AND LOTS OF PRAYER!
Encouragement and assurance... I am thankful to have so many out there already doing this for me! and I appreciate every one of you!

GOD IS AWE-SOME!!! LITERALLY!!! All I want is to bring Glory too His name... and to worship him with all that I am!
I know there will be ups... and there will be downs! but He never leaves me...

Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength" If that verse can help me get across the monkey bars... It can surely get me through life :)

"When I'm lost in the mystery

To You my future is a memory

Cause You're already there

You're already there

Standing at the end of my life

Waiting on the other side

And You're already there

You're already there" Already there by Casting Crowns
I have Jesus on my side... And with Him... I am made new... I am redeemed... I am alive... And I will Serve! :) 

5 Things that make me the most happy right now :)

Oh GOODNESS!!!!

Only five things... well lets see if I can sum all my happiness up!

1. All my family, friends, and coworkers <3

2. My youth kids. ABSOLUTELY LOVE MY KIDS! There is not one thing you could tell me or I could find out that would make me love my children any less! They seriously all amaze me! From humbled hearts to selfless acts, passion for life, love for sports and everything in between. I wish I didnt have to work so that I could go to all of their games and plays. Also, that I could tutor them if they need it. Have personal bible studies with them... But even though I cant do some of those things every minute I get with them makes me over joyed!

3. My BABIES! My life changed almost eight years ago when my sister gave birth to one of the SWEETEST gifts I have ever received! :) Pure happiness! and then a year and a half later I was blessed with another baby girl... I would do anything for them... I never experienced LOVE until they were born. HONEST TRUE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! (of course other than GOD!) :) <3

4. My Lord, Savior, Redeemer, and friend! My Father has NEVER left me. He always answers my prayers, whether they are the answers I wanted or the ones he gave me out of future knowledge... :) I dont think I can write down how much Christ has impacted my life!

5. All of those people who invest in my life! Spiritually I wouldn't be where I am today without them! Momma Donna... Jonathan Veal... Sterling Adero... Reegan Elizabeth... Megan...  and Most of all My loving Grandmother... She has seriously been with me through everything...

Those who know me know I need Godly advice EVERYDAY!!!!

10 things would tell my sixteen year old self!

OH MY GOODNESS I DON'T KNOW WHY BUT ITS BEEN FOREVER SINCE I HAVE BLOGGED!!!! MY BAD!


So moving on to this topic. I have been trying to think of ten things I would tell myself. Honestly I can only come up with 1.
I would remind myself that life isn't for us... I would tell myself to trust in Christ and to depend on Him! I would give examples on situations that may arise and how to deal with them.

I would warn myself of things.
BUT! Im glad I didnt have the opportunity to do this because without the heartbreak and pain and failures I would not be where I am right now. My life would be completely different!

Well I know this was short but I am kind of in a hurry!

Till next time! (which will most likely be tomorrow...)
BYE <3 Bridget!

Relationship with My Parents!

God Blessed me with an amazing family!
Even though sometimes I may get frustrated or sad or upset with my parents I still Love them!

My Dad:
              I'm definitely a Daddy's girl... Partially because I look JUST like him...
              We don't have the best relationship but that's because we hardly see each other...
               But I love Him with my WHOLE heart!

My Mom:
                I think out of EVERYONE in my entire family I get my mom the most... I know what she likes
                and dislikes... I know what she thinks of every thing I do before she tells me... I know her! and in
                that I love her! I know that one day we will be BEST FRIENDS! and she will be an amazing
                Grandma to my children! :)

My GRAMCRACKER:
                  HAHAHA!! Oh my lanta! My Grandma... My mentor... My little ball of SUNSHINE!!! she always
                  knows how to make me smile! :) My grandma and I are like the SAME person! we think the same
                  thing about different situations! I swear if there was anyone I would love to be like when I get older
                  its her!!! Even with Arthritis and Age she still runs around like a TWENTY year old! My Grandma is
                  one of my FAVORITE people! EVER! :) she is most definitely one of my best friends!


My PAPA:
                  The leader of the family! My protector!
                  My relationship with him is one I dont think I can really explain...
                  If something is happening in my life he is one of the first people I tell!
                  When I go to his house sometimes I like to just sit in the living room and watch T.V. with him
                  I feel safe whenever Im around him... I even feel happy... we dont even have to talk and I can leave
                 feeling more refreshed than when I came! I love him more than I can express.

Yes my relationships arent perfect but with love and RESPECT all things are possible!

"Honor your mother and father"
:) Words to LIVE by!

Love you!

Kindness=Repentance

So this is a little break from my thirty questions...

So on Sunday Nathan was preaching and recited Romans 2:1-4

"Therefore, any one of you who judges is without excuse. For when you judge another, you condemn yourself, since you, the judge, do the same things. We know that God’s judgment on those who do such things is based on the truth. Do you really think—anyone of you who judges those who do such things yet do the same—that you will escape God’s judgment? Or do you despise the riches of His kindness, restraint, and patience, not recognizing that God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?"



Lately I have been listening to Kari Jobe, (amazing Christian artist who also sings in spanish! :) )


Anyways, in her song, You are Good, in this song she declares:

"Your kindness leads me to repentance!
Your goodness draws me to your side.
Your mercy calls me to be like you.
Your favor is my delight."

And before Sunday I always contemplated where she had come up with that line. It really spoke to me.


I mean have you ever heard lyrics to a song that REALLY changed your views on your relationship with Christ. This was one of those moments!

The Lord definitely wanted me to hear this. He has placed this on my heart to be kind in order to lead others to repentance! :)

I pray that y'all will see this group of scripture in a new light!

Thank you for reading!! :)

3 Legit fears and why?

1. Someone in REALLY  high heels stepping on my foot.
     One of my teachers in high school had this happen to her in the middle of a wedding ceremony... and she showed me pictures... it just looks painful!

2. Breaking a bone... Im pretty good with pain... but that would freak me out! (yes Im 20 and I have never had a broken bone!) and this one is specifically for my shin bone... I cant explain why but IT MUST NEVER BE BROKEN. UGH!

3. Death... Not my own, and not really other peoples death... but I have a HUGE fear of how I will react when I find out someone I love dearly has passed away... I know its selfish but I have gotten better with this over the years...

AGAIN Thank you for reading! :)
