Back In the States

Well, I have been back in the states for a couple of weeks now. It has been great to see all my family and friends again! I did not stay at home very long though before I left again. I am now in Florida with my sister Alisha and am having a great time with her and her family. I was only suposed to stay with her for two weeks, but I am probably going to be staying with her for about three weeks now because on the first of June we have to go to court and testify against our biological father. Both of us are looking forward to it, but we are leaving it in God's hands and knowing that He will take care of us. I will be glad when it is finally all over. I am glad that this is giving me another week with my sister though.

Tonight I went to my first Wednesday night service in a long time with my sister Alisha. It was really good. It was fun to meet all of her friends and get to know them a little bit. Also, at the same time, I felt kinda awkward being there because I dressed differently then them, I used a different Bible than them, I never went up to the altar and prayed during prayer time, and the church was just super small. After church, I talked with the pastor for a long time. One of the first questions he asked me, after "how old are you?" and "where are you from?", was "are you saved?"...then we talked a little about how each of us became saved. Soon after that we all went home. Friday night they are having a game night at the church so they can all get to know me a little better. They were all so excited to meet Alisha little sister (me).

Well, I need to get to bed now so I can get up early with Alisha tomorrow. She has to get up really early in the morning to get Lil' Bobby of to school and to start her chores. Good night!!
