My mom is doing better. She is still in some pain and yesterday she had her IV's taken out. But the tube that drains all the blood out of her side is still in. She might get that taken out today. She has tests that she has to do today. Please pray for that. She thought that she would be able to come home today but the doctor said tomorrow.
Please keep my mom in your prayers and pray for a fast recovery.

The Teen Trip
I told you I would tell you about the trip that I went on. Well here I go!
We went on the 21 of July and we came back on the 25. We basically stayed there for a week.
The first day we went it was a long trip. We left around 1:00 and it took us about 4 or 5 hours to get to the church. On our way to the church we stopped at the first gas station. When we got out our pastors wife, Mrs. Tonda, asked if I was talking to the newer girls, Hannah and Danielle, and I said that I was kind of but not really. She tells me to start talking to them and to tell them some of my jokes, or to just be myself to show them that they are not the weird ones at the church, I am. I thought that was lovely of her to say. But hey...its the truth! We start to talk some and we really start to get along. After that it was just a boring ride. When we finally get to the church, we had to introduce the churches. They did and that was it. Or so we thought. Then the pastor asked who the Know-it-all is of the churches. We all said Joel! Which is true! Then they asked who the guy is that thinks he is all-that, We all said Jared, then they went on to the annoying 7Th grade guy who's voice is changing, we all said Johnny. then they got to the blonde's of the churches, and every one started to scream my name and Danielle's name,(Her name because on the way we saw many cows and then came up on some horses and our pastor confused her and said that the horses were cows). So that was great to know that I am the Blond of the church, but that's true too!
The pastor finally came to the invitations, he said we needed to shake 5 peoples hands that we didn't know. So I go out to find people to shake hands with and I come up to Mrs. Tonda, She shakes my hand and says,"I know you, but I wish I didn't!" And after she said she was just playing and i knew she was. But it was still kind of funny.
The next day we went bowling and that was really fun. The night before I met my new bff and her name is Jessica, but I call her Jess, and we bowled together along with her sister, Mary, and Ruth. The other side of us was Joel, Keith, Matthew, and Garrot. When the second game came, Matthew and Garrot said that they will play for fun and not actually play right. Well Matthew talks Garrot into spreading his legs in front of the bowling part and Matthew threw the ball between his legs. Now, if you are two girls that wouldn't really be a problem, but it takes a lot of stupidity to do that if you are a guy. Or a lot of trust in your friend. I bowled the highest score which was a 99!!! I was happy that night!
The third day we went to an amusement park and the ride that everyone was talking about was the Ge-Force, the steepest roller coaster in Europe. And my friends talked me into it. Before i loved roller coasters, or so I thought. We went on it and as soon as the bars came down I started to freak out! When we go up to the top and start going down it is the steepest but it didn't go strait down, it curved after the first mile down and it did go really fast. For me at least.
After the roller coaster, i had a full bladder, my stomach was in a not, and I could barely walk!
But we still had a lot of fun.
This trip was really fun and I met a lot of new people. I am really happy that I got to go on this trip.

Used Vs. Loved
While a man was polishing his new car, his 4 yr old son picked up a
Stone and scratched lines on the side of the car. In anger, the man took
The child's hand and hit it many times; not realizing he was using a wrench
At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures.
When the child saw his father.....with painful eyes he asked,
'Dad when will my fingers grow back?'
The man was so hurt and speechless; he went back to his car and kicked
It a lot of times. Devastated by his own actions.......sitting in front of
That car he looked at the scratches; the child had written 'LOVE YOU DAD'.
The next day that man committed suicide. . Anger and Love have no
Limits; choose the latter to have a beautiful, lovely life..... Things
Are to be used and people are to be loved, But the problem in today's
World is that, People are used and things are loved...
During the day, be careful to keep this thought in mind: Things
Are to be used, but People are to be loved ... Be yourself....This is
The only day we HAVE. Have a nice day Watch your thoughts; they become
Words. Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits they become
Character; Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

Tomorrow
Tomorrow is the day that I go off to my teen trip in Germany. I will be driven there along with many other teens by my Pastor. Please pray for safe travels there and back. We will arrive at around 9 o'clock. I will be back on Thursday or Friday, then I will show the pictures that I took of all my friends and family. I will be back with fun stories of what we did and-or didn't do!
Please pray for me and all the others on this trip! Thank you and will be back soon!

How?
How can some one say that there is NO God? How can we look around us, look at the world, and think that there is no Creator? How can YOU say that there IS a creator for the car, but NO creator for the world that we live on? You may say that the world was made by the theory "The Big Bang", but how can there be an explosion made by NOTHING and yet created EVERYTHING? If you say that it takes no faith to BELIEVE that a "Big Band" could do that then what does it take? Please tell me! I would love to know!
