mentors.

hello all you bloggers. hope that you've had a fantastic start to your weekend. well, in case you were wondering, I did have a pretty good day. I am on worship team this weekend at my church, and so I loved that. God really revealed a lot to me tonight. So, in , what all can I say about her. She's so amazing. I tonight's blog, that's what I'll be talking about. God really told me that He has put mentors in my life for a reason and that He thinks that the people I have are the right people, and that they will be there for a long time to come. There are 4 people in my life that I think of when I hear the word mentor: Thad, Leah, Susan, and Morgan. So, I'll tell you a little bit about them. :)


Thad - Thad is the coolest guy I have ever met, hands down. He is one of the most creative, sophisticated, smart people that I have ever met.  He's a runner and he started a running club at my church. He usually tweets or puts a status on Facebook about how his running went that day. He has such a heart for people and for serving others. I met him last year while I was interning and we just became friends instantly. As I've grown and matured, Thad has been there for me when I need to tell him something. He's there when I need a good laugh, but he's also there when I need to tell him something. He understands where I'm coming from, and he's always so encouraging. He's my dad, he's my older brother, and he's my friend all at once. :) 


Leah - Leah is the best person ever. She's my role model and I look up to her so much. She is the high school pastor at my church, and she is the best. She is one of the first people I met when I started going to my church and I am so glad I met her. She's been there for me through my happy days and through my sad days. She  has absolutely inspired me to be me and to trust that God will provide, even when it's hard to. She's helped become who I am, and I so grateful to have someone as amazing as her be in my life. I don't know what I would do without her. :)


Susan - Susan is such an encouraging person. She is the worship leader on the worship team I play on, and she's amazing. She is an amazing woman of God and she's such a huge role model in my life. She has such a caring spirit about her and she really inspires me and motivates me to continue to pursue God. She's the best person to go get ice cream with late at night when you need to talk about life with or when you just need some encouragement. Susan will always be there, ready to pray for you or just give you a hug. Susan has taught me so much about worship leading and I love her so much! :)


Morgan - Ahh, I love Morgan. She is such a confident, beautiful person. She is so amazing to be around and she really cares about her friends and family. I've learned so much from her about what beauty really is and what God truly sees me as. She's really inspired me and she's always been so encouraging to me. I have such a high respect for her and I love her to death. She has such a passion for God and for sharing His love with others and that is something I love about her. She's someone you can just be real with about anything and you know that she'll be there to help you out when you need her. 


Well, there you have it. Those are just brief descriptions about some of the most important people in my life. If any of you are reading this, I just want you all to know how much I love you all and that I am so glad that I have such amazing role models in my life. :) 


the song for tonight's post doesn't really correspond with the theme of mentors, but it's a really good song that we are doing this weekend at church.
