Here I go with the song lyrics again. You know, sometimes I think that the only thing that dosn't let you down is music and God.
I don't need another friend tryin' to tell me something
I don't need somebody's expert advice
When just another two cents still adds up to nothin'
I get away to find a place to close my eyes
And I don't need somebody new on the television
"Send your money and we'll send you a new life"
And I don't need your tried-and-true paperback edition
The one that fixed you overnight
I'm lookin' at You, lookin' at me
Lookin' for love that comes with a guarantee
What if I knew all that I need
Is held in a hand that'll always offer me this love
And I don't have to waste my time wonderin' who will love me
I don't need to look for some kind of clue
It isn't written in my sign or the stars above me
It isn't hidden in the blue
I'm lookin' at You, lookin' at me
Lookin' for love that comes with a guarantee
What if I knew all that I need
Is held in a hand that'll always offer me this love
I'm not tryin' to set an expectation
I'm not askin' for the moon
I just need a little confirmation, something true
I'm lookin' at You, lookin' at me
Lookin' for love that comes with a guarantee
What if I knew all that I need
Is held in a hand that'll always offer me this love

Mirror
I keep being hit across the face with song lyrics lately. Maybe its because lately I don't listen to anything besides christian music. Which is awesome! So BarlowGirl sings this song called Mirror on WOW HITS 2006. Its really cool. Not that I'm one of those girls who is always down on what I look like, but thats not to say that it dosn't bother me sometimes. Duh, I mean I am human. But this song just remindes me that I am made in God's image and I am a face of one of his children, and thats more beautiful than the most attractive person in the world. WOO!
Mirror, Mirror on the wall: have I got it?
'Cause Mirror, you've always told me who I am
I'm finding it's not easy to be perfect
So sorry, you won't define me
Sorry, you don't own me
Who are you to tell me
That I'm less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you?
Yeah, yeah
I don't need to listen
To the list of things I should do
I won't try, no, I won't try
Mirror, I am seeing a new reflection
I'm looking into the eyes of He who made me
And to Him, I have beauty beyond compare
I know He defines me
Yeah, yeah
Who are you to tell me
That I'm less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you?
Yeah, yeah
I don't need to listen
To the list of things I should do
I won't try, no, I won't try
You don't define me, you don't define me
You don't define me, you don't define me
Who are you to tell me
That I'm less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you?
Yeah, yeah
I don't need to listen
To the list of things I should do
I won't try, no, I won't try
Yeah, yeah
Who are you to tell me
That I'm less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you?
Yeah, yeah
I don't need to listen
To the list of things I should do
I won't try, no, I won't try
Mirror, Mirror on the wall: have I got it?

Cast your burdens on Jesus, for He cares for you!
Cast your burdens on Jesus, for He cares for you!
Higher higher,

Life Jesus higher!
Lower lower
lower lower lower lower lower lower
Stomp Satan lower!
Wider wider

Spread the gosple wider!
Super super (oooha oooha)
super super super super super super
Supernatural Powers!
Friday was shopping for congress/camp stuff and then McDonalds on Vaden :) In the night there was a Youth Rally at the West (really good!) followed by BBQ at Jessica's!
Yesterday was the Program Staff meeting at Melanies, then I went to Rob, Susan and Tim's students recital, then McDonalds again then practicing for solo then off to Jana's to watch the Oilers WIN. Game 7 here we come!!! Right after the game we mad reservations Monday night at Don Cheerys!! Its going to be a fun time :)
Its been a busy week/weekend. and another busy one to come. I start working at DHQ tomorrow from 8:30-4 until Friday. That's very exciting because its all prep for camp. Which is in 10 DAYS! I can count on my hands now! wooooieee!
Anyways, like I was saying... The Youth Rally was good on Friday night. There were lots of courses sung and one of the ones that stood out was Cast your Burdens Now, here's a song that we sing at least once at week at church. Its one of the kid's favorites but I always loathed it because... Well its not an masterpiece of musical composition by anymeans. Its realllly repetitive, and it just never had a good place in my mind. But boy was I wrong. On Friday night I don't know why, but it actually clued into me what that song was saying. Whenever I sang it before I never payed attention to what I was singing. This simple song has everything you ever need to know about the christian faith summed up in like less than 20 words!
- Cast your burdens on Jesus, for HE cares for YOU! (everything that's weighing you down, Jesus wants to take away because he loves you SOOOOOOO much)
- Lift Jesus Higher! (Praise him for everything he is!)
- Stomp Satan Lower! (self-explanatory)
- Spread the gospel wider! (wittness to tell others about Jesus!)
- Supernatural Powers! (He can do miraculous things!)
Seriously!? Is there any better promise? I think NOT! :)
So from now on I will not 'loathe' this song, because even though its not the most impressive piece of music ever written it still has something even more special in it!
Later Days!!

Gratitude
Send some rain, would You send some rain?
Cause the earth is dry and needs to drink again
And the sun is high and we are sinking in the shade
Would You send a cloud, thunder long and loud?
Let the sky grow black and send some mercy down
Surely You can see that we are thirsty and afraid
But maybe not, not today
Maybe You'll provide in other ways
And if that's the case ...
We'll give thanks to You with gratitude
For lessons learned in how to thirst for You
How to bless the very sun that warms our face
If You never send us rain
Daily bread, give us daily bread
Bless our bodies, keep our children fed
Fill our cups, then fill them up again tonight
Wrap us up and warm us through
Tucked away beneath our sturdy roofs
Let us slumber safe from danger's view this time
Or maybe not, not today
Maybe You'll provide in other ways
And if that's the case...
We'll give thanks to You with gratitude
A lesson learned to hunger after You
That a starry sky offers a better view
If no roof is overhead
And if we never taste that bread
Oh, the differences that often are between
Everything we want and what we really need
So grant us peace, Jesus, grant us peace
Move our hearts to hear a single beat
Between alibis and enemies tonight
Or maybe not, not today
Peace might be another world away
And if that's the case...
We'll give thanks to You with gratitude
For lessons learned in how to trust in You
That we are blessed beyond what we could ever dream
In abundance or in need
And if You never grant us peace...
But, Jesus, would You please...
You know this song never ceases to amaze me. No matter how many times I listen to it or how many times someone sings it in church. Its just so powerful.
Even though God doesn't Provide you with what you think you need or what you want, we should thank him for not giving that to us. Because in the end who really knows the best? Us or God? Duh.
This part especially; "Bless our bodies keep our children fed... Tucked away between our sturdy roofs... Or maybe not, not today. And if that's the case... We give thanks to you with gratitude, that a starry sky offers a better view is no roof is over head."
Seriously, if I was homeless would I be praising God because I could see the stars? I seriously don't know. That would be so hard. But that's what has to happen. Even in the bad times think positive and worship God for what you have... Even if you think that is nothing. That is what God is there for. He is there for us in times when we need Him the most, and times like that are the very times we need Him the most. I want to be like that. I want to worship God and trust Him in the hard times. I hope and pray that I will succeed. Because I haven't really come across a time like that yet in my life. But when I do, He'll be there, and I hope I see Him.

Starfield
Dosn't that ^ look exciting???
I'm not sure if this includes them coming to YC for us... but somehow I don't think so. They're booked randomly in the states in September, after YC and in November. So I don't know what they're going to do. But anyway, they said "start spreading the word" so I am!
Who's excited!?!?!?!?

Soccerrrr
I just watched 2 world cup games while getting ready for tonight. Thats alot of soccer in a row. 180 minutes worth. Woah.
And that was the most intense 3 minitues of a soccer game I've ever seen. And trust me... SJMSA (St. John's Minor Soccer Association) can get pretty crazy. HA.
I also want to say that the polish goal keeper is very cute. And he played awesome-ly for playing a team with a powerful offence. Props.
GO BRAZIL! I missed their game yesterday, but they WONNNNNN.
Cup 2 years in a row? I think SO!

Hello All!
I like to think that I write so much in this blog because I'm going away for the summer in 14 DAYS and I won't be writting an entry until August 19th or so. But thats probably not true, because even if I wasn't going to camp I think I would write just as many. Oh well!
I love being up early. It sure isn't fun when you know you have to go to school or something... but when you're on summer vacation, and just get up, relax, drink some coffee, go for a walk (etc) it's clearly a wicked feeling. Well this morning I got up for a reason... to drive Mommy Airport! She's going to Monteral for a Nursing Conference therefore, until Monday, its just me and the boys! I guess there will be a whole lot of fast food and lack of clean clothes going on for the next few days. I kind of like it when mom's not here. I love her (duh!), but when she's not here I'm kind of like the one who takes care of the boys... well if they want a decent meal I get to make it... I don't know. Its different.
I also have the access of Mom's car whenever I want it! WOOO. haha
Yesterday Laura picked me up and we went shopping and stuff, looking for her sneakers. I love just spending the day with her. haha. And I did it on Monday too. Man, we are always together. YES. love it. We went to Wal-Mart and she bought a BOCCE ball set! For those of you who don't know... its clearly one of the best games ever! It's kind of like lawn bowling and curling. Each team gets 4 balls, and someone has to throw a smaller white ball out in the grass, or dirt, or sand and you have to get your balls as close to the white one as possible. It seems boring, but its really fun. So anyway, after we bought that one we went to church and played it on the lawn. Tres fun time.
Last night we had a BBQ at sarah's for Jill's birthday. It was so much fun. Everyone is home for the summer... Jill, Jess, and Lesley along with me, Laura, Sarah, Susan (and special appearence by Jonathan) It was cool to all be together again. I must say, we had WAY too much fun laughing at may things including very odly shaped plants. Oh dear.
Oh! I can't get enough of John Ortberg so now I'm reading "God is Closer than You Think". Its a good book so far! Even though I'm only at chapter 3. More on that later!
Now, here comes the VOTING part! I need your help! On Sunday I'm doing a clarinet solo at church (PM... BE THERE!) and Tim is playing for me. We have it narrowed down to 3 songs (one fo them is not the best for clarinet though, but tim dosn't know that yet! haha), so which one do you think we should play!?
a) Breathe (in a bad register for the clarinet) so probablynot going to do that one
b) As the Deer
OR
c) Above All
So what do you think!? hummm... definitly one of the last 2. I think we're going to pratice both of them and see what happens. Maybe I'll just fall in love with one of them. I guess it depends on what Tim does with them.
Thats all for now. I may get bored in the next few... hours!... haha... and write something else... but until then.
Later Days!

118 days until SHOUT!
STARFIELD oh yeah, thats right!
www.ycnewfoundland.org
(Court you can come if you want! With my church or Bethesda :D)
Peace
eighteen
Thats right... eighteen days until I'm home. Well, you know... obviously this is home too, but camp is my other home. And its true. Other than this house, I would say that Starrigan is the place I have spent the most time at other than this house. 6 weeks last yeat 4 the year before that and 4 music camp's, Corps Retreat. I know some people have been there way longer than me, but for only knowing about it since 2000 I'm not doing to bad. haha. Anyway, I actually can't wait to go.
Its going to be really weird without Dale, Andrew, Kayla, Jillian, Jon, Seritha, and Deborah since they were all there my first year, but we have an awesome bunch of newbies comming in to. Jeremy, Sara, Erica, Maria, Marcus, and Jon... ( I think thats all?). No doubt its going to be an awesome summer, with loads to learn from God and from eachother.
These pictures I scamed from Bethany :). Thery're from last year, the infamous 'Staff Dance'. King of Magesty. haha. Man that was fun, as much as we complined about having to learn it and having to do it week after week, its definitly one of the biggest and funnest memories from the summer. Even though it was embarsing. haha.
<- Me and co-counsellor Jillian :) I'm gonna miss you misses.All of you fine people should ask me for the Starrigan address and write me letters :D I might even write you back.
I'm there from June 28th until the 19th of August. DO IT!
Anyways, I'm sure there will be more camp related rants comming, so stay tuned!
Later days!

BJH. Good times.
The BJH grade nine leaving ceremony was this past week and Deirdre's sister Emily and Amanda's sister Melissa graduated together just like Me, Amanda, and Deirdre did. But I don't have a younger sister in grade 9 or a younger sister at all. But they didn't forget. haha. They're soo funny. They made a space in their picture for me! (Or my younger sister) the caption said: WHERE ARE YOU MELISSA WILLIAMS?
I thought it was halarious. Thanks for remembering me girls! You're awesome! haha

Consuming Fire
Yesterday I watched all the special features of the HP and the Goblet of Fire because I'm cool. And I can never get enough Harry Potter :) . Dale came over for supper and we had BBQ. (mmmmm...). I had no plans for the night time so I decided to go to a bonfire at Topsail Beach. Tim had nothing to do either so I picked him up and we went together. When Jon, Dale and Dave showed up we decided to get the fire started. And this guy Dave knew had a whole pick-up truck full of wood and he said we could have as much as we wanted! Awesome! So the 5 of us (well I should say the 4 guys) got the fire started and tryed to make it as giagantic as possible (with wood in a teepee shape about 6 feet high!). Props guys, it was a good fire. Then later Jess, Melanie, Steph and Susan showed up and they brought marshmellow's and all that usual stuff. It was fun. My clothes smell like smoke now. I like that smell. So at 11 we doused the fire and I drove Tim home. It was a fun night.
Consuming fire,
Fan into flame,
A passion for Your name.
Bonfires are always an awesome time.
ps: Camp in 24 days! :D
