Vacation and Fasting

 Well I finally got my blog onto my  Google account. But, (there's always a but) no access to any settings! My verse today is one of my Sunday school verses. "The LORD will fight for you, you need only to be still." Exodus 14:14

Well, I found some books that I like!(I am extremely picky so this is very good) I am reading the Harry Potter series! I am in the middle of the fourth book.

We went on a cruise this past weekend! It was my first cruise, my first time out of the country, plus I got to go with friends! It was soooo fun! I was a short cruise, only Thursday afternoon till Monday morning. We went to Cozumel, Mexico. It was so cool! It was my first time going to a beach with blue water and it was amazing! Of course, it can't all be perfect. James did not want to be in either family picture. I fell of the inflatable water park and salty water went gushing up my nose.(Luckily, I had a life jacket) Elisabeth got super motion sick after being in the waves a lot combined with the rocking of the boat. But overall, it was one of the best vacations ever! Here are some pictures:

Another thing is, I decided to become a pescatarian(it means, I eat seafood but no other animals). The main reason is I had just read an article about how not eating meat benefits your body. Also, I am just trying to be healthy, since I don't do any sports anymore.

The reason I wrote fasting for my title is because that is exactly what I am doing. I am doing a 30 hour famine to help our church feed the homeless. I 'm 10 hours in so far. Sadly I can't be there because I'll be at baking class (I'll be making cheesecake while fasting:(:( ). But I 'm still doing it. I am actually too young because I'm not in youth (middle school and high school) but I really wanted to participate so I got permission. I am really looking forward to middle school. While I'm on the subject of our church helping with things, we also helped with one called Free The Captives. They are an organization that works to stop human trafficking. Most people don't know this, but Houston is a big city for human trafficking. It's really sad. But you can donate to them at their website!

  2. Still doing 30 hour famine and Free the Captives. Love that! Here's one of my favorite verses: Fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

5 things you probably don't know about me

Brothers,  join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk  according to the example you have in us.  For  many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you  even with tears, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ.   Their end is destruction,  their god is their belly, and  they glory in their shame, with  minds set on earthly things.   But  our citizenship is in heaven, and  from it we  await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,     who will transform  our lowly body  to be like his glorious body,  by the power that enables him even  to subject all things to himself. Philippians 3:17-21 Once again, I'm so sorry for not blogging this past week. I was at D-Camp, which is a camp where my church and a bunch of our sister churches have a camp for middle-schoolers and we get to know each other and God more. The Bible verse above was actually the theme for it. Camp was super fun by the...
