It's so pretty!
I can't believe my eyes. I am in shock. literal shock. It seems a little strange maybe that I am so blown away by this little thing of getting a new car, but you have to understand that I have never had anything this nice in my entire life. It is a complete blessing from God and I am unbelievably grateful. God's goodness to me is astounding, and I feel so undeserving. Why does he do stuff like this to me! I wasn't even looking for a car, and he gives me an awesome one. I wasn't even looking for a job and I got one I love! God is so funny. I am floored. This car is his, this job is his! I feel I have no choice but to use these things for his glory. They are sacred because they are so His, and he has entrusted them to me for some reason!?
Last night when I saw the car for the first time and my sister gave me the keys I felt like the luckiest most blessed girl on the planet. I was thinking about it, and realizing that this is probably the kind of feeling I want to have when I get married! Even more so! To feel utterly blessed, giddy, and undeserving to have such a wonderful gift from God! I want to get married with that feeling. I feel like God's favor is wrapping me up, and I just can't figure it out. But I'll take it! And I praise God for he is SOOOOOOOOO worthy.

Prophetic?
Check it out. I was reading my dream journal from three years ago. Here are some exerpts of dreams I had. What do you think? Prophetic?
April 24
Dreams I was with a bunch of girls in a big mansion...it sort of turned into a grocery store. and these guys were stocking shelves. One guy was stocking toilet paper very high like super high. Then he fell backwards. We knew he was too high to survive that fall. But we all started to pray. I prayed first. It was the most intense prayer deeply deeply powerful, hands streatched out, I remember the intensity and unity of prayer and how we prayed in faith, in earnest, it was a long time. even for dreams, we prayed a long time. And he rose from the dead! Praise the Lord! Yet we weren't surprised, just thankful and worshipful, our faith was so big.
July 19
Dreamed that I got pulled over by a cop and got another ticket. But I wasn't speeding. I looked at the ticket to see what my offense was. It said, "Fear." I got a ticket for fear! I was so mad cuz I was like, what does he think I'm afraid of? I'm not afraid! I'm going to contest protest this! He can't give me a ticket for fear! What the dirt!?
Interesting, eh?
I'm trying to apply for a loan these days so I can get that car. But I've been denied twice already. Grrr. What up?
Trying to beat this cold that's trying to beat me up these days. I'm gonna win. No doubt. Just taking a couple hits in the process.
I best go check on my vegie soup.

Overflowing
I am just overflowing. OVERFLOWING!
How incredibly good God is to me. How dispicably undeserving I am of His riches. Yet he finds it good to bestow blessings on me. I haven't even gotten over the blessing of this job yet, and here come more blessings........!!
Today my boss called me into her office. That never sound like a good thing. But what she said was crazy-awesome. Aparently they had been comparing the sallaries of their employees to other people of the same job in other organizations and felt it neccesary to change my wages according to the wages other people are getting. Which means I get a dollar increase! And that's besides the fact that my 90 day performance review is coming up in January where I will be eligible for another pay raise!!!!!!!
Not only is this INCREDIBLY awesome, but it's just in time, because I just decided to buy a car. How exciting is my life right now. ha ha ha!
My wittle sister Eva's friend is selling his car to go love on orphans in Germany, so she's gonna drive it up for me over Christmas break. What a beautiful God.
Check out the car. It's so cute, eh!?!?
