I am grounded for a month. No phone (house or cell), no texts, no email, no ushering, no youth band, no car, no keys, no friends, no parties, no hanging out. Nothing, nada, zip, zilch, zero. Maybe not even Revolution Weekend. :/
So what I'm thinking is God wants to get real with me. I have communication issues. That's why I'm grounded, wrapped up in a nut shell. So I'm going to have to learn to be a better communicator.
Alas, goodbye for a month.

"The depths of despair?"
"Yes. Haven't you ever been in the depths of despair?"
"No, I have not."
"Couldn't you imagine you were in the depths of despair?"
"No. To despair is to turn your back on God."

aw, Kristina!!!!! :(
I'm so sorry! And my dad was like, 'that's what's gonna happen to you if you don't start communicating better.' I hope my dad calmed him down some. :/
But consider it great joy. I've always hated being grounded, but at the end of it, I actually enjoyed it. I didn't have distractions and places where I could go. I got more rest, I got better time with God; it actually felt better. But I wonder if this means no youth group either?! Like, I didn't see you at church at all, does that mean no church?!
But I'm glad you're seeing it like that too. Like you're seeing it through your dad's eyes. My dad had to explain to me where your dad was comming from because I was like, 'well she tried calling! And it was only an hour and a half difference!!!!!' haha, so you rock girl. You're wise, you are. Enjoy the time with God, get a whole bunch of rest, and find out even more what God wants from you. And I'm praying that, it does NOT include Revolution Weekend!
(And I could totally see you being a Christine Caine type of person! :))
well,
isn't that just gay.
just do me a favor. do what ever you can to get to revolution. please.
I'm going to go and cry me a river of tears!!! I don't get to see you forever!!! :( Life ain't going to be complete without you. And I'm with Joe, do whatever is possible to get to Revolution. You missed last year's Revolution. So don't miss this year's Revolution.
i love you babe and i'm glad we've got 2nd every day (:
um. no Revolution? don't make me call your house...
way to go get grounded for a month! haha, enjoy the sleep part of it cuz i suspect you'll be doing a lot of it.
