You Got Mal

Ever feel like everything is finally getting better and then something happens that turns your life upside down? Well that's what I'm going through right now. God has put a lot on my heart in the past two weeks. He's broken it, taken people out of my life, put people in it, weakened me, but also made me stronger. God has a plan for me, and even though I am unsure of what it is I am going to trust Him. Yesterday I had a mini break down, thinking about classes and everything everyone has told me. I know so many people believe in me. They believe that I can succeed up here, but theres also been a lot of negative people saying I can't do this and that I will come home. I try to not let peoples negative thoughts get to me. God gave me this chance because He knows I can do this He knows I'm strong enough. God has also put me here as part of my healing. For the last couple of months God has been calling me. He has been saying " Mallorie, come close to me, Mallorie, le

1 Peter 1:13 says " Therefore, with your minds ready for action, be serious and set your hope completely on the grace to be brought to you at the revolution of Jesus Christ." That verse right there tells you to ready your mind, be educated, be smart. And as I move closer and closer to my classes actually starting I can feel the excitement growing.

I met Mary Grace Owen last night, turns out she is my dorm sister, and this is exciting for me. Not only is it exciting because she is from Alabama, but also she has my cousins name. Here at Liberty they put enphasis on building relationships, not only a relationship with Christ but the other believers that make up the body of Christ. To help out with meeting people they have brother dorms for the girls. Every girl dorm has a "brother dorm" which is basically a guy dorm that t

August 14,2012 - My first offical night on my own. I've waited so long for this moment. I've waited so long for this day. I've begged and pleaded for time to fly by so i could get here. I've dreamed of always being on my own like a big girl. Always wanted to make my own rules, and never wanted to answer to anyone. Well now that this time is here I ask myself " Mallorie, is this what you've been waiting for? To leave everyone you love behind? To go off on your own, and not have your parents around?" Ya, I did wish for this every day of my life, but now that it is here I want to go back. I want to go back to when I was little and my summers were spent on the farm with grandma, and Madison. I want to go back to when Bob would dress up like Santa on Christmas Eve. I want to go back to the nights when my mom tucked me into bed and read I Love You This Much  to me. I want to go back to my care-free high school days when class was a complete joke. I want my frien
