John 15:5 (New International Version) I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.

The key to not quitting is simply to keep doing what you are doing no matter what life throws at you may be in a season of amassing resources, educating yourself, serving someone else’s dream, or taking action. Whatever season you are in, do it with all your energy. Don’t set the cruise control. Do it purposefully, one step and a time, and don’t quit. - Reaching Your Dreams By Tommy Barnett

Anna here, I hope you had a good week!! So here is another picture :) and I'm just going to put it with that verse because I was thinking about it last night.

Proverbs 3:5 (New International Version)
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;

Hello!

Well it seems to have been a long time since I've posted. Sorry about that. School's started for me, and so far it's been good. I might even stretch to say it's been sorta fun. The only newest thing that's going on in my life is my pets. No, we haven't gotten a new animal, but I was realizing what a blessing animals are.

Whenever my dog Marty(shown below) sees me crying, he'll come up to me and wag his tail and lick my hand, and somehow it's really comforting. My cat, Pardalis, on the other hand, (who is highly selfish) will allow me to hold him (sometimes) and even that's a comfort. On a VERY rare occasion, Pardalis (as shown above) will jump up on my bed and meow in my face. And just holding him really calms me down.



So I guess I just want to take the time to thank God for my pets; they've really helped me through alot of rough times. It's fun to know that God knew that we'd love animals. Unless, of course, you're frightened, or allergic to animals. In that case they can be your worst nightmare and a danger to your health. >_< P.S. But remember that God is our greatest comforter, and He can comfort us more than a dog or cat could. ^_^

Hey anna here!!
