soo.. what to say.. actually i dont know where to start cuz there is too much to say... uh midstate choir was a lot of fun and my dad got me roses!!(aas you see in the picture) how sweet lol west side story is good. uh i've made a lot of new friends through that! umm.. siegel is now district champions! SIEGEL NATION! uh. and im going trough some tough stuff right now soo prayer would be much appreciated :]]

got to see my cousin, Billy, who came home from Iraq for a few weeks to recouperate from a bomb going off next to his car. soo please pray for him, and us, as well cuz its kinda hard but im so thankful God has kept him safe thus far.

i've had a hard time lately just letting God have control of my life. i want everything to be done my way and in my time and its really selfish.. God has definitely hit me with some issues that i can't get through without FULLY putting them on His shoulders. and its such a big relief finally realizing i can do that :]

" Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light." -Micah 7:8

DEFINITELY my verse right now.. now the only thing is to apply it. prayer would be much appreciated :]

i promise i will try to keep more updated lol <3 (pics from galinburg coming soon!)

IN HIM <3   kristin

finally after months of deep prayer and relying fully on God i realized what i needed  to do and now life is incredible!! my friends were with me through it all :] thank you guys!

*andrea girl i really wanted to come to your voice recital. -sighs- im soo sorry i should've done homework earlier lol im sure you did amazing!! and i have confirmation of that from lisa! :]] love you girl!

whew... losing friends is NEVER fun but sometimes the only option... even though i never thought it would happen this way or none the less happen at ALL. God has definitely used it to show me he has more in store for me :] with the help of lisa's words (thank you lees!)

my best friend rachel :]

SHINE FOR JESUS!!

" Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. The you will be able to test and approve what God's will is- his good, pleasing, and perfect will." - Romans 12:2

"He has made everything BEAUTIFUL in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end." -Ecclesiastes 3:11

these two verses have helped me through this week.. the week i thought i'd never get through but God didnt let me down :]]

Judgement House this week was.. indescribable! im convinced it was like one of the most incredible experiences of my life!

91 people this week came to know Christ as their Lord and Savior!!

353 people in the past 3 years we've been doing Judgement House have come to know Christ as their Savior!!

i dont know what you think but i think thats pretty AMAZING!!!! im soo excited for all those people!

one thing... i dont think im as excited as i should be... its become just another thing and its soo much more than that... their lives will NEVER be the same! and that is soo exciting because now they can tell others the incredible truth that everyone needs to hear about the Lord Jesus Christ!!

guys im not going to lie.. someone is really burdned on my heart right now.. they went through Judgemnet House and everything but didnt make a decision and i know its not in my hands but its soo hard to watch her go day after day, knowing that if she were to die she wouldnt be celebrating with me... knowing that she would be separated from God forever and that is the most scary thought to me.. please pray..

thank you for everything! God is incredible and I'm not going to let anything make me forget that.. <33

just when i thought i had it all figured out, life takes a huge turn. but you know that isnt for me to decide. it's all part of God's plan.. friends go different directions and things go differently but it all works out for the best in the end.

God is incredible and one that i can completely rely on to be there when i am in dire need..

the variety show was amazing :] it was such a blast! i wouldnt be complete without the stage! performing is one of my passions. <3 its incredible how God works in such odd ways...

I will never leave you nor forsake you...
