A Little About Me

Hi, my name's Bethany and I am sixteen years old. I love life, singing to the top of my lungs, drinking tea, reading novels, watching football, and being my friends' cheerleader.  Some of my hobbies include: straightening my hair, praying until my knees ache, loving with all my heart, and watching breath taking sunsets.
 I try to live my life everyday to please my Savior and make Him smile.  I love to soak in His word in the quiet hours of the dawn or the night; and sing hymns loud.
I love my family with everything I have, and I love to be with them whenever I can be.  My friends mean the world to me and have helped shape me into who I am now. My close friends: Casey, Allison, Braydyn, Savannah (S), Charissa, Julia, Caryoln, Natalie, Sydney, Kylie, Chris, Bryce, and KC are the best friends anyone could ask for! They make me laugh and cry!
I am the kind of girl who loves late night talks, snow covered trees, caroling, stunning landscapes, horses and love stories.  I enjoy writing in my journal, jogging, and taking pictures. 
To me 31's look like backward 13's. Tea should be sweet. Friends should be forever. Romance should be saved for your beloved. Prayers should be long and often, stories should be sappy and sweet.  Football should matter to everyone, farms should be in sight anywhere, colors should be bright and makeup should be pretty.
I love Robin Hood BBC, horses, old pictures, hats, gloves, dresses, healthy food, and hot cocoa.  I am dazzled with early morning snow storms, the fall, sea shores, mountain peaks and summits-rivers and valleys.
I think everyone before they die should: (most important by far) accept Christ as Savior, go and pray in a field, lie in grass, gaze at stars, hold someones hand, visit a small town, go on a missions trip, smell the flowers, run in a pasture, kiss a horse, jog two miles, stare into someones eyes, fast for someone, create a snow angel, cut down a Christmas tree, make pie, keep a diary, pick apples and pumpkins, dance in the rain and write.
I believe in Jesus Christ, heaven and a Savior. I believe in fairy tales endings and true love stories. I believe that you can grow to love someone, because you were their friend first. I believe in old fashioned things like horses and carriages, strong wooden doors, hard floors, brick houses, and quaint seaside cottages.  I believe in a real prince charming.  I believe that God uses are weaknesses to show off His glorious power. I believe He loves us more than we can imagine. I believe that you can glorify your creator in everything you do.  I believe that God has a purpose for each and everyone one of us. I believe that God makes everything beautiful in its time.
I believe in red lipstick, pearls, and dresses with belts.
To me day dreaming is a hobby, singing is like breathing, praying is like talking, and laying in a field is endless bliss. 
Anne of Green Gables, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, North and South, Wives and Daughters are movies that inspire me. I love regency and anything BBC. I love anything that is creative, fun, or sparkly. I love the color yellow and picket fences.  I love cottages, windswept mountains, lazy rivers, sunflowers, green pastures and old rusted buckets.  I love fields of hay,  corn and beans.  Big waves at the ocean side, and secret entrances enchant me.  I am in love with old homes with stories, lofty barns, corn cribs, staircases, and fireplaces. 
When everything goes right- I'm amazed; and when everything goes wrong, I know God must have a reason.  To me life is simply complex. Simple because God calls us to walk with Him and trust Him with everything, and He will lead us.  Complex, because of everything that is involved in that journey of trust.
I love what comes with the journey of life. The winks, the smiles, the verses, the songs, the sunshine, the love, the forevers, the fall, the colors, and everything in between.  Jesus had completed my life making me whole and beautiful in His sight.  Praise be to Him- who makes everything beautiful and perfect in its time! I love Him and He has given me life!
This is me- Miss Bethany .
