Day ten: Someone I wish I talked to more

Okay, I'm totally doing these out of order, and I'm skipping the one about my internet friend....because not to be different, but I just think that's dumb. Ahaha! But anyways, sorry that I keep putting the wrong day number before the wrong subject. I'm all confused. BUT! I'm starting at day TEN, and I'm talking about someone that I wish I talked to more than I do.

Alright, I have two people who I will talk about, but I must say that I always think that I don't talk to people enough. So, I would list a ton of people if I had the time....and interest, but these are the top two!

1) Jon Armistead is the first. He's got to be one of my favorite people ever! He's great! I get to see him a good bit, but we never get to talk as much as I would like. I love his company, he's one of the funniest people I know, he's got the most contagious laugh, and we are really alike. It's crazy cool! We will just sit there and laugh at each other for really no reason. It's hilarious. But yes, definitely Jon! I would love to just sit and have a forever long convo with him about life and whatever he's going through. That would make my day!

2) Jade Green! I miss that girl, and I love her so much. We grew up being super great friends, so it's hard for me that we don't talk as much. I really love her, and think she is such a great person. She is such a great listener and such a great Christian. I never had a hard time telling her things and we really complimented each other's personality. I respect her and adore her and her family. Hopefully sometime soon, I can see her and talk to her some. Miss ya Jaba!

And that's about it. What an easy day!

Day eight: Someone I want to meet

Hmmm.....who is someone I would like to meet? JESUS!

Dear Jesus,
I would love to meet you! I'm looking forward to the day that I can stand before you. I also fear that day in a sense, because I want you to be proud of me, and what if you aren't? I mean, what if I have been a total failure? What if you look at me and say I have been lukewarm? God, that scares me, but it also challenges me and pushes me forward, making me want to be the best I can be for YOU. I want to kick myself sometimes, because I don't get excited about meeting you, but why shouldn't I? The thought of seeing you face to face should be what drives me on, what makes me strive to be better and more like you. Shouldn't my main goal in life be to hear the words, "Well done my good and faithful servant?" How "well" do I think I'm doing? How can I be better for you God? How can I make my life more beautiful in your eyes? You look at my mess and see something useful...how can I be a vessel for you? Help me to be more righteous and in love with you. Help my life to be something that you smile upon. Help me to live solely for YOUR glory, not my own. I am nothing in your presence, and my life should be nothing but exalting YOUR name and YOUR sovereignty! Thank you so much for loving me and giving your perfect self for my wretched being. I love you! Please give me strength and a desire to know you more, and for my love to grow stronger and stronger every day. When I come into Your presence, I want you to be pleased in what you see.

Because of You,
Becca
