Simply Me.

Rebekah's the name. Although if you call me Rebekah, I will insist you call me Bekah, because Rebekah sounds like a sophisticated name, and I am in no means a sophisticated person! I am wonderfully blessed with a Saviour who gives me happiness and mercy every day. He gave me my little blessings; my two nieces and nephew. I love them like they are my own children. They mean the world to me and I am a very proud aunt. I am a big dreamer. I know, or at least think I know, what I want in life. I want an adventure more than anything. I want to get out of this place some people like to call Roanoke, and find life. I want to move somewhere like England or Italy, learn cultures, and learn how to be me. Nothing will hold me back. I will do everything in my power to follow my dreams. I've had that branded in my brain for a very long time, since I was a young child. I'm a very outgoing and social girl. If you ask me to do something, I will squeeze it in because I love people. I'm also a very independent girl. I think on my own, and I write on my own. I have a lot of feelings that need to be expressed, and adventure seems like the perfect way to express those feelings.

Beach in April - Day 1

Day 1 - Corolla, North Carolina.

My sister and brother-in-law, Sammie and Josh, came and picked me up about 1 AM. We drove about 6 and a half hours to get here at the beach. Our family rented a huge beach house. I'm staying here until Sunday. So happy to be at the beach! It's been rainy and cloudy all day but hey, it's the beach! 

So far today, we have seen a HUGE whale, and about 5 waterspouts! I am the kind of person that is DEATHLY afraid of tornadoes, but waterspouts are pretty cool! I guess the only reason I like them, is because I  know they don't touch shore. Well, it's only about 2 PM right now, but it's rainy so we won't be doing much of  anything today. May hop in the hot tub later, and we are going out to dinner tonight. It's only Day 1, and I'm already having fun! 

This is pretty much what we saw!

Sickness STINKS!

Just wanted to blog real quick before I head to bed. Made it through about 2 hours of school today before I couldn't take it anymore and went home, once again leaving Mary Wall and her BEAUTIFUL FACE! (;

Anyways, just a small update: my temperature lowered today but it still hasn't quite gone yet, and my appetite returned although I'm sure I won't feel like eating again tomorrow.

Right now it looks like I'll be making an appointment to go into the doctor's to get blood work done. GROSS. My stomach and needles don't get along very well, but I'd rather do it so I can get better!

We figure that I have hypoglycemia, which could be very possible, but we'll just see what the tests show.

Although this whole situation has been very scary for me, I've felt the most peace than I've ever had in my life.

These situations are the ones God really tests people on. They are the ones you have to show your faith and rely on God. All while praising and glorifying Him, no matter the outcome.

He really is The Comforter and I am so thankful for that! Thank you, Jesus (:

Also, keeping Japan in my thoughts and prayers, glad I know that God comforts ALL, even Japan (:

Not Again...UGH!

Hi. Don't feel good...at all. Sick again. This is really getting old. Went home from school today with a temperature of 100. All I can say is...

..."Be strong and courageous. For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go!"

I received a message from Heaven today.

Hello Audience!! (something I got from a youtuber, ha.)

I know it's wierd! I'm actually posting a blog, IN THE MORNING! Ha! But, I had to share this, because this is just TOO COOOL! (as the lovely Mary Wall would say) (:

In my first two blogs, I put in there Joshua 1:9....AMAZING VERSE by the way....but the other night it was not only in my blog, BUT it was in my DEVOTIONS, I mean that alone is pretty cool! This morning I looked at the facebook news feed and my dad's status was Joshua 1:9! I didn't even tell him about it. 

FOUR TIMES that verse has come across me in a matter of 2 or 3 days! THAT IS SO COOL! I can only take it as a message from God as cliche as that is. I mean lately I've been going through some health scares, going to get that bump checked out on my shoulder, and I'm about to go through some pretty rough stuff with my mom for my bible study....

AND I CAN'T TELL YOU ENOUGH, HOW AWESOME AND  HOW MUCH THAT VERSE GIVES ME PEACE!! And it's because of only one person, God, my LORD and SAVIOUR Jesus Christ.

Now that's some pretty awesome chiz. (:

Santa Monica, here I come!!

Yet again, it's 12:11 A.M. and I'm writing a blog. Night time is always when my brain is more active, (; Today has been kind of a down day. Rainy, and just bleh. I've been thinking about my favorite place on earth alot, today....

Santa Monica.

I can't wait to graduate and make my way to the sunny beaches of Santa Monica, California!

Also, today I bought a webcam/super awesome microphone, well thinking about buying. Ha. Got to see if Mom or Dad will um...buy it for me, Ha.

Here it is:

It's pretty sick nasty.

Well, I'm SLEEPY, so 

GOODNIGHT INTERNET!

(:

Joshua 1:9...Simply Amazing!

HELLO INTERNET!!

A bit hyper tonight. Well, Brain-Hyper. Not so much physically anymore. This winter has just about killed me. With the Flu, Stomach Flu, Sinus Infection, Cold, Strep Throat. My immune system is just about ready to shut down, lol. Not to mention all the stomach problems, but most of that has to do with stress. Really hoping I don't get sick anymore, it's really kind of frighting. I've had a lot of issues with my health lately. Alot of it really frightning to me. I might not show it, but on the inside I'm probably freaking out, lol (: Hopefully going to the doctor sometime next week to get this bump on my shoulder checked out. Praying it's nothing serious. Really worried about it, but do you know what pops into my head EVERY TIME I worry? Joshua 1:9. I put this in my last blog, too. It says:

This verse reminds me that NO MATTER what goes on with parents (no pun intended (; ), friends, or even health, God with NEVER leave me. He will do what he wants to do with my body, with my friends, with my parents. BUT HE ALWAYS TURNS INTO SOMETHING GOOD FOR ME! My God is a merciful God, and a loving God, and I am SO thankful that I can rely on him when things get hard. SO THANKFUL <3

Dreams Will Live FOREVER!

Hello Everyone,

It's 10:52 P.M. I probably should be in bed, but I needed to share this.

This quote pretty much sums up everything that I ever want or believe. "Dream as if you'll live forever..." Never stop dreaming and trying to figure out who you want to be and what you want to do in life. You can ALWAYS reach your dream as long as you put HEART & SOUL into it! Easier said than done, huh? It's true, but I believe everyone has the strength inside to carry their dreams out. "Live as if you'll die tomorrow..." It reminds me that we have NO GUARANTEE of tomorrow! Live every day to the FULLEST!



















THERE  IS NOTHING WRONG WITH WANTING SOMETHING MORE! Wanting something that seems "impossible." IT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE! Nothing is impossible with God! IF GOD IS FOR US, WHO COULD BE AGAINST US!? NO ONE!!

I guess all I have to say is I'm going to pursue my dreams, pursue yours, don't let anything get in the way.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9 (:
