Letter un-to Great friend
Hey. I left a note on your Xanga. I hope it didn't seem accusitory. Is that a real word? I guess I've had some time on the computer and realized that the friends I used to hang with aren't here. What's up? I know, you're crazy busy with all your activities. I am trying to get a little un-busy and focus more on school. Only three weeks into the quarter-that means only eight more to go! Do you read my blog at all? I have been posting. Hey, when is a good time to talk? I don't have your number, but I know you have mine. I wish I was more computer savy so I could send you pictures of my family.
I am leading worship twice a month for True North and you can't tell anyone this(not like you know anyone to tell), but Pastor John wants me to move into music director for True North. I am praying about it (I know that I have already said yes in my heart) and probably sometime in June I'll step into the postition. I am so excited! This is one of my goals being met! What awsome experience! Mom and dad sat down and listened to my dreams and plans for the years ahead. I asked them for their support and encouragement (and wisdom to). I told them that nothing should come between these dreams and what God wants to do in me. I asked them to keep me on track and help me with distractions. I said, "no guys, no ministry, no short-term passion. This is the vision and I am sticking to it!" That isn't to say that God won't redirect me or that his way of getting there will be different. I just know that I get side tracked easliy. Wow. I should get back to my books. Once again, WHAT'S UP?
Talk to you soon!

I'm going to be really honest with you. One, because I love you and I think that's what you would want from me and two... well, there is no two.
This place where I am now has become my home. I feel more at home here than any other place in the world even though direct family isn't here. You know why it's like this? It's because this is where I've found God. Really. He is here, I can feel him with me all the time. I also know that my family is much bigger than just blood, it extends to everyone in the Kingdom of God.
I'm telling you this, because in reading your posts, you seem to be searching for something. I can tell because I've felt that before. There are only a few in my life that I could see being here, J. You are one of them. I want you to prayerfully consider going on a summer internship next summer with me. I wish I would've kept in better touch with you this year so that you could go this summer...
anyway, this is just how I feel. I love you. Pray about it. I'll call you soon.
-Maria
