I am obvoiusly Perfect. (not)
You know the other day I was thinking about how I have such a Me me me mindset
like how I have a friend who I was bashing for not being my definition of a Christian
and how hes speaking in front of a congregation. As if God cant work through him as
well... I need a BIG attitude and mindset adjustment.
I just thought that I would broadcast it so that you would all know that I was wrong
to think that (if you heard me talking about it)
Reconsiddering a whole bunch of things,
Jenny

Would you like a ring pop with that?
Have you ever embarassed yourself to the point of no return?
Well Robin, Aimee and I totally did tonight.
We were at work and were bored... what better thing to do when your bored than have a rolly chair race?
So we roll down died laughing cause it was crazy. Then, cause I didn't have a rolly chair, I had to pull/push them back up. I started pushing but sad to say my "farm girl" muscles weren't up to the job so Robin had to help me. As she's helping me she starts yelling PUSH! So we are laughing at each other and finally get all the way up the isle and we see a pair on eyes looking at us in shock... someone was waiting to go to the movies... That made us laugh extra hard! After that the second movie started and I was serving this one guy and just as I was about to grab his pop it fell on the counter and went EVERYWHERE. I was like oh man my bad... and Robin just "big" laughed.
So there was my night.
Pretty darn good I'd say.
Crying on the inside,
Jenny

Oats and Chai Late?
What do these two things have in common, you may ask?
Well let me inform you!
It has to do with this week and how INCREDABLY STRESSFUL it was.
Heres how it went down.
Sunday~ Couldnt go to church cause we hauled grain...
Monday~ Went to Cold Lake to get Erin some dance shoes... couldnt find any but I did get to see Danae!
Tuesday~ Sorted freaking gross drama costumes and got yelled at for no apparent reason
Wednesday~ Went to youth group WITHOUT K.P. which was bad enough not to mention got yelled at by big Wayne because he didnt know who one of my best friends was, who has BEEN here like 40 times...
OH and I was told that we had a Biology 30 test the next day of which I had NOT studyed for yet.
PFC, for thoes who dont know its a extra cirricular activity that takes up all your wednesday lunch hours...
Thursday~ Drama AND Band let alone was hectic enough not to mention I had a test and like all the assignments in the world due.
Friday~ TODAY! "Yessssss I made it". I think as I get home today. But no dice. "Sooo ahhhh why did you not come home on the bus today... there is a bear around here you know."
"Dang it" I think
"I was suckered into selling programs at the football game" I say.
she replies in a snarky tone.
"Safe!" I hear the umpire of my mind say.
"sorry... "
I rush into my room and get my work shirt on. Make a quick supper and rush out the door. I get my sister from the neighbours and rush to work. Hopeing and praying that I am not late for once in my life. PLEASE! I cry! As I run to the door I bang on it and my boss saunters towards the door. Aww dang im late again... but whats that I see on his face??? Is that a smile?
EURIKA! It is! "Safe!" the umpire of my mind says!
I look at the clock, 5 minutes early even.
YESSSSS
The night goes on and it is pretty good and uneventful. Until,
She walks in,
looks at me aaaand....
yells, "JENNY SPOFFORD"
"KIM WEIERS" I yell in return.
and there was my night.. good and perfect.. I had everything good that I wanted to happen, happen.
9:15 hits and im done and on my way to spending my "Mr.Beans Holiday" with Kim.
I watch it and it turns out to not be spectacular but satisfactory.
I get out hopeing to have a goodnight ahead of me but Shayne comes up to me and says,
"You should call your mom, she had called here and I forgot that you went in to the movie".
Well let me skip the fighting details but I will tell you how it ended.
Mother was worried that I was in a car accident cause I was not home yet. Noar had called to see where I was to give me a Chai Late that she so caringly bought for me.
Therefore my mother got carried away and thought I was dead somewhere.
There
My rant is finished.
I just had to let that out.
Anyways in short I have found new meaning to the verse "... Consider yourselves fortunate when all kinds of trials come your way"
Im not gonna lie, im not feeling to fortunate.
Later Days,
Jenny

Am I truly free?
This is something that I have been wondering lately.
"It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened against by a yoke of slavery." Galatians 5:1
Sure I live in Canada (one of the most secure nations) and I have never been in under any real prejudice that would make me feel like I was not free to be me but still something suppressed me.
As I pondered this for quite some so I started to eat, not out of hunger but out of boredom, then something pressed on my heart and a little voice inside said "Jenny come and read in my word"
to which I replayed "Um I'm busy right now, later I will" still munching down.
After I was done I aimlessly walked around the house and finally found myself reading a magazine.
"Jenny please come and spend time with me," the voice crooned "I really miss you."
"I will just after this" I reasoned.
After I had finished reading the article in the magazine I wandered to the computer and started to check my email.
"I feel as though we are separating" the voice whispered.
"Yea, I know" I said "lets spend time together sometime soon, alright?"
"If that's what you want" the voice said, now barley audible.
As I finished checking my email I realized that I had done that yesterday but I had not read my bible yesterday, or today either for that matter.
I walked up that stairs and opened my bible and stared to feel the gap that I had so rudely made between God and I fill up with understanding and love.
This is how I usually am when it comes to spending time with God. Because of this I am burdened by a yoke of slavery. Whenever I think 'just one more job' or 'just half an hour more sleep' I am playing into Satan's trap that is to keep me as far away from God as possible. And as I fall farther and farther from God, his voice gets quieter and quieter until finally I have just learned to tune Him out.
Why? Why do I do this to Him after all he has blessed me with so much. Because my sinful nature seems to like to lead me every way except the way I want to go. I have to stop and turn myself around and start heading toward the right direction and repeat this over and over. So if this is the way you are feeling don't let Satan suppress you. Stop and take 5 minutes and read your bible. It will do more than you know.
Keep pondering,
Jenny
