I've been putting off this whole blogging thing. I don't think anyone truly reads it. But it's just so nice almost to have somewhere to put all my thoughts on besides my Journal.
What has been going on in the life of Miss Hilary Brooke? A lot... Going to school, and then right after school going to the Day Care Center, and then on occasion working at the Ice Cream Shoppe here in Town. I've just been pretty busy, getting this car...soon. I can't wait.
I've been thinking a lot. Thinking about all the wonderful people in my life. I have lost some friends, but have gained so many more. I have this really great guy friend in New York, he actually attends West Point Military Academy. He has been such a blessing in my life. Met him ona mission trip two summers ago in Omaha originally from Iowa. He's been that guy who has been such an encouragement, through hard times. It's strange to think that a guy that you meet 5 minutes in a homeless church will be one of your best friends. God works in strange ways.
I am starting to think more and more about college....I have three choices Narrowed down I think. Northwestern in Orange City, Union University in Tennessee, and Nyack in New York. I have met this girl from Nyack, she is one of the most Godly girls I know, and is truly like a sister to me. I have been helping her a lot, she's been going through some rocky times. I believe God places people in lives for reasons unknown. Reasons that are seen but yet truly, when you look deep within they are mind boggling. I don't DESERVE all of these amazing people, plus my God.....but he continues to be good, and faithful and pours out his grace to us.
I have been praying and thinking a lot about the future, but when it comes down to it. We should be remembering that in the Book of Jeremiah the Lord reminds us that he has a plan for us, and that it will bring us hope, and a future. (29:11) I have been reading this amazing book by Billy Graham, it's called JOURNEY. I urge you to read it if you haven't. It's all about the Journey that life takes us, and what the Lord's purpose is for us. As anxious as I can get, and wonder about all the small things in life, or maybe even huge, I know at the end of the day...when I lay my head on my pillow it's him that will guide me onto the path, and the Journey that will be beneficial to my future.
