Tomorrow is Valentines Day. If you didn't know that and you have a significant other, I think some stores are still open and if you get lucky, you could probably find a one dollar box of assorted chocolates. But let's hope it doesn't come to that.
Along with Valentines Day comes the flood of Facebook statuses about people(mainly girls) wishing they had a Valentine for the day. They want that special someone to share their love with.
LISTEN UP LADIES: You do not need a guy to make you complete!!
You do not need a man to make your life whole. I realize it's really awesome when you find someone, but don't think that you're gonna die alone because you haven't found anyone by the age of 18. Your worth does not depend on the guy you aren't/are dating.
Rant over.
I've started my internship at First Woodway and I couldn't be more excited about it. I'm loving getting to know the people at Woodway better and I'm so glad I'm able to get this experience. It's only 3-4 hours a week so it's not a lot but I'm still super happy that this opportunity was given to me. I have a conference time with my mentor once a week, I'm involved in a discipleship bible study on Wednesdays that is based on raising Godly children, I'll be involved with different groups starting up a family ministries program and also one that is developing a curriculum for a family devotional based on missions.
It's also nice that people up here are getting to know my heart and my passions with ministry. I've been up here for almost two years and people know my personality and what I like/dislike. However, it's nice that a person within the church is getting to know my heart for families within the church. Also, as much as I absolutely LOVE Rockport and FBC Rockport, it's kinda nice that the people at First Woodway just know me as Erin. They don't know me as Bobby and Kathryn's Daughter. Or Courtney and Joey's sister. Don't get me wrong, I'm extremely proud to be known as those things. However, it's nice that they just know me for me. They know me as Erin, the girl from Baylor that is passionate about working with families and helping them grow closer to Christ.
