My Journal: “My View”
Date: Monday October 15, 2007Posted in: Articles, Home & Family, Ministry, My Journal
We got in late last night from being gone over the weekend. About 2 am was when I finally went to sleep. As soon as my head hits the pillow I am out. I never have problems falling asleep. We were able to sing as a family, something I love to do. “When He Reached Down His Hands For Me” I love that song. And yes we sing with that country flare to it…. I have a solo that I sing and I absolutely LOVE to sing solos. People often tell me “you look like you enjoy singing” and I say I do! I love it.
Today I got up tiredly to wash my hair and curl it as always just to realize I had left BOTH of the curling irons I use all the time at the hotel. I was sad. They are NOT cheap either. These are professional curling irons so they cost a good amount of money. And since I got paid today I guess I will have to stop by Sally’s Beauty Supply for more… I can’t go on without my irons, that’s for sure.
Today I am looking for two very exciting things in the mail. A movie I saw when I was little and loved and haven’t seen in video stores so I ordered it! I can’t wait till it comes. My sisters and I love to have girl movie nights of course the guys like to join us too, we don’t mind. So we are planning it already.. you know a good romantic movie. Whenever I am asked if I want to see a movie I always, always ask… “Does it have romance?” if the answer is “no” I usually don’t want to watch it, thats just me! That’s just how I am.. and I think God made me like that. That’s why I love the Bible too… it has beautiful romance stories in it. And of course the most beautiful love story of all time. So, I can’t wait to get my movie and have a movie night.( Little secret about me is that I LOVE movies, good ones that is. ) That’s going to come and my candles hopefully! I can’t wait to get them. That should come today! :Update: Mom just said my candle kit has arrived as I write!! I am so excited to get home now!
I am working now two days a week for a lady in Hinsdale, as I think I mentioned, I am a personal assistant helper and have really enjoyed that. The other day driving a BMW for the first time… I tell ya you feel very cool. People just look at you differently. Anyway, so tomorrow part of my work for her will be volunteering at the Hinsdale Community House. I tell you God has just opened the doors for me to go out and work in this community that I live in ! I praise Him for it. I want Him too “Shine” through me. People have asked me questions about Him and I have answered boldly. It’s been wonderful. Yet, I know my God is never pushy or awkward. He always knows just the right thing to say and I love Him for that… I know He will use me if I am just willing! The cool, awesome thing for me to realize is that God will shine through me if I am willing! I don’t need to know all the right words I just need to be willing. I want to be a willing person He can use.
Today, as I was sitting at my desk here at work it’s a little but of a slow day. The TV was on and “The View” came on. Bless their liberal hearts they are and there “views” are very much OFF. They were putting down Ann Coulter for something she said about out Christians and the topic of your fine as long as you serve or claim a god that seems to be the popular belief today. I sat here and watched as Hillary Clinton walked on and people applauded her and she spoke as though she was already the president of the United States.. (God Forbid) She has a feminist speech about how wonderful it would be if she was president and people remembered when women couldn’t vote to a day a woman became president. She talked about the fact that Bill would do what she wanted and she would send him around the world gaining back respect and speaking… I don’t want to be mean. I want to love people. But wrong they all are!
We need women… strong women who still stand for what is right and true and moral. Women who have a “Right View” based on the Foundation that cannot fail, the Word of God. Women who know what life is and they protect their own wombs from anything demonic that would try to destroy the preciousness of an innocent life inside them the life we, as women have been given to protect. Women who can humble themselves under the mighty hand of God who will all one day bow down to Jesus Christ alone who sits upon the throne. Who IS the only way the truth and the life and no one comes to the Father except through Him and Him alone!! I don’t know much really, I don’t know a whole lot about my country and current events and I find myself not knowing a whole lot about much …. But I do no one thing… and that is I believe the Bible and that The only View we should ever have is through the Holy Word of God. I believe in my heart and KNOW what is right. He has opened my eyes to Himself… and I believe what He says to my heart. I know that He speaks to me this “High and Lofty One” and I believe what He says is true. And in that I have everything and know all I will ever need, and so much more! I want to be one of the women used to stand for truth in this world…
I praise God for women like Nancy Leigh DeMoss and her stand for what’s right… there aren’t that many out there saying what needs to be said though! They have their “View” do you? Then make it known wherever you go and however you can they are not quiet nor should we! So find a voice and stand for what’s right. And pray that God never allows a woman like Hillary Clinton to disgrace America by being our first lady president. I know I am going to pray that way… every single day. But, that’s just my “view”.

WOW am I proud of you and thankful for you. Keep writing, Holly, keep singing, keep talking about Jesus wherever you go. Never let anybody knock the romance out of you.
That is a tragedy about the curling irons, but it was a great cause.
