Call me Dr. Love

Dr. Love is my new nickname for my Hebronite friends in Dacula. The second everyone found out that Robert and I had started dating, everyone (6 people in 3 days), started calling me, telling me about their crushes and asking for my advice. As if dating someone for three days makes me a love expert. I listened to their gushing romanticisms and rantings and then I told them that if they like someone they should tell them. We are all adults here, it shouldn't be that hard, right? Then, I looked back on my life, at how many times I have wanted to tell someone how I feel, whether it was a guy I liked, someone who hurt my feelings, or someone I didn't neccessarily agree with and how I chickened out, got scared, tucked in my tail and ran. I realized that I am in no way, shape or form the person that needs to tell others how to handle this kind of situation. Although, I am very glad that my friends trust me enough to bare their souls to me and tell me their deepest desires and emotions. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. So, from now on, just call me Dr. Love.

Ok, complete random subject change.. I am good at that :>) So, this weekend I am going to be doing Disciple Now with Hebron Baptist Church. Beth and I are in charge of 12 8th grade girls. We sleep at a host home, teach the girls lessons, do community service projects and recreation. Two Bare Feet will be doing a concert and the chaplain for The Georgia Bulldoggs will be speaking. I am so excited. It will be very exhausting, but life-changing I am sure. I was a little nervous about doing this, but when I met the girls last night, I became super excited. They are so sweet and they just started talking to me right away. I am sure that we will have late nights and emotional days, but I KNOW that God's hand is on it and that He will touch the hearts and lives of those students, as well as the leaders. I am sure that I will learn more from the girls than they will from me. Just keep us in your prayers and I will keep you posted. Peace out!!!
