How do I...

How do I learn to have a plan for tomorrow yet, be open to what tomorrow brings. This seems to be a road block for me. So much of a road block that at times can keep me from enjoying life.

Enough of those thoughts. I am going to the Oklahoma City Arts Festivle tonight with my main man...


I really like this guy. Wont go into detail, but one thing I can say that I really like is 1) he is a boy and 2) that at the heart of this whole thing called a "relationship" he is my friend. So he has completly fufilled his duties, boy and friend. :)

Martha Vs. Mary

"But the Lord said to her, My dear Martha, you are so upset over all these details. There is really only the one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it-- and I won't take it away from her." - Luke 10: 41-42

My deep need, He Will Not Delay

"But may all who search for you, be filled with joy and gladness. May those who love your salvation repeatedly shout, " The Lord is great!" As for me, I am poor and needy, but the Lord is thinking about me right now. You are my helper and my savior. Do not delay. O my God."
- Ps 40:16-17

I need joy and gladness. I am poor and very needy, but the Lord, my God, my Savior is thinking of me, Laura Elizabeth Prince, right now. He has good things for me right now. He is my spring of living water. He is my guide. He promises to blindfold my mindseye and lead me over life's mountains through the river of the Holy Spirit, found in the deep places of my heart.

My heart's desire is know Him, to walk with Him. For Him to be my guide.

"He lifted me out of the pit of despair out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along. He gave me a new song to sing a hymn of praises to our God. Many will see what He has done and be astounded." Ps 40:2-3

Do not delay. O my God

Invention rubberband. Many different purposes. Over all theme, to hold things together. Lets have a chat about friendships and the Love that holds them together. Love them and I hate them. Very normal here when I admitt that I like them when I FEEL loved and wanted, not to up on them when I don't. When you are inside the rubberband of best friendship you start out tight. You tell them all your hip and hops, you trust them, they like who you like and avoid your frustrating people not because they agree with the wrong you hold them to but because they are choosing to stand by you and not the middle ground. But then life brings about changes and you grow a bit apart. They start dating someone, you start dating someone, they get married and you breakup with yours. They move, you stay. They come home and you move and so on and so on. But there comes a time in each relationship where you decide, am I cool with the distance we now share in our friendship, or does the idea of getting out not not putting forward any efford sound more appleaing. Truth be told I have made both moves. I have stayed and I have left. And I hounestly can't tell you (once again because of my friend Illusion) if I did the right thing.

More to come...

Hope, Dreams and Illusions

Lets talk about Hope. Hope and I are friends. Very good friends I might add. There are a few events in my life where if she and I hadn't become buddy buddy, life would be much different these days. However... she has these two cousins, Dreams and Illusions and they all hang out together in my mind. This is a problem. Dreams and I get along great when I see a path which leads to her. She has the potential to bring about life and she also can bring about disappointment. But Illusions, that chicka only brings confusion to my heart. So here is the deal. I would love to separate the three, but no can do at this point in my life. These three girls all run together. Hope is my anchor friend. She reminds me that all things work together for those who love Christ, that He is good and believing the best about this world will do you right. Dreams can cast vision of tomorrows Hopes. Illusion and I don't get along. The freakin girl drives me up the wall. She is the one who whispers lies about how my life would have been different if I hadn't... or this friendship wouldn't have ended if I had been more patient, or my life would have looked like this...if I had gone to a different school. She never quits.

And Illusion has a straight path to my emotions. One two three and she has me all tightened up. She gives the illution that I wish life would look different (when maybe I really like how life is going) or tell me that this relationship issue with my friends, or family or boyfriend is all their problem when in reality it is mine.

So back to Hope. I want us to be better friends and we will. But Illusion and I need to have it out before Hope and I become better friends.

Finally a Love Come True

I bought a house yesterday. I have wanted to buy a house since I was like two. Seriously, large dream come true. I think I always thought I would have to wait to get married to have my own home, which was always a frustrating thing for me because marriage is never in ones timing much less mine. This is the crazy thing, people have been asking me if I am nervous about owning a home, and truth be told there is nothing in me that is nervous. Most emotions I have revolve around the finally feeling. I can't wait to paint. I bought a book on how to paint things in an unique way long time ago and now I can do something about it.

My house is a male. I am good with that. Makes me feel safe.

Only more to come
