One Million Possibilites.

If you were required to distribute one million dollars any way you wanted, how would you do it? Why?

If I was required to distribute a million dollars any way I wanted I honestly wouldn’t know what to do with myself. I’d probably be a little jealous at first because I’d at least want to keep some of it, and if we were all honest, you would agree with me. That is a lot of money for one person to have power over in distributing. It also has the power to make a huge impact in people’s lives.
      My dad is the state side director for a corporation that does a lot of overseas work. Times are tough and missionaries need help. I, being the daughter of a mission-minded home, have a huge heart for the missionaries. I would use some of the money I was given to help the families overseas as well as the corporation my dad works for. I know they would use it in a way that would glorify God.
     I also have a huge heart for adoption. Going through the process with my family, I know how expensive adoption can get, and how stressful fundraising can be. One million dollars can help multiple families with the expenses that are needed for the adoption process. It would be a relief to the families knowing that they had the adoption paid for.
     There are truly so many things I could do with one million dollars. The possibilities are endless. Supporting missionaries and families who are in the process of adoption are just two. It’s a lot of money for any one person to have, and given time I know I would use it to better God’s kingdom.

What's been happening with my netvibes account?

Well, I have definitely not checked my netvibes account in, what feels like, ages. The update on my Oklahoma Sooner’s is good though! Although, they got beat by Missouri a few week ago. Those fans had to be the hardest thing I faced the next day. I just wanted to hall off and punch them, square in the jaw, but I kept my cool. The rest of the sports teams seem to be doing well and my site for flute music has a bunch of new songs. I’m not sure if I’ll ever play those songs, but they are fun to look at.
     I still have managed to avoid learning how to play Sudoku. No matter how hard I try I can’t figure out how to play. I also have a problem in patience and I get frustrated too easily, so I just gave up on that one. My site for dancing has no news feed, sad day. I guess I won’t be learning how to dance either. On the other hand, the verse for the day on Bible Gateway is 2 Corinthians 3:6- “He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.”
      Jon Acuff’s “Stuff Christians Like” is just hilarious. He posted on finding out that Justin Bieber was a Christian, and the rarest church musician of all time. In the blog about Justin he stated three things about how people might treat him now that he has said this- People are going to “Bono” him, People are going to Brittan him, and People are going to think Ludicrous is next. The guy is just hysterical.
        Acuff’s post today was on organs. He talks about all the reason why you would want to play the organ, in the kindest way to make fun of someone. If you haven’t read this guys stuff, I would advise you to. After searching through my netvibes account, I guess netvibes isn’t so bad after all.
