Writer Workshop - Fear

Writer Workshop....and I choose the prompt:

{Where does that fear come from? Write about something that frightens you that other people might find ridiculous. Write about it in a poem, a story, or whatever.}
Fear

I have found that I have allot of fear in my life! Take from the start, I was REALLY afraid to get my drivers licsence! It scared me to death...now..I love to drive.....
So you ask what my fear is...well..here you go!
I fear bad storms. Yes I live in the south, but I HATE the storms! Thunderstorms, Tornado's you name it! I HATE THEM! I cannot sleep at night when there in and I feel whooped in the morning! I toss and turn allot. Thank goodness for Facebook on my Blackberry Pearl :)
I am always afraid that a storm is going to do damage to me or people I love. For some reason I think that if I stay up I can be ready for it. I even get myself so worked up that I hear things that are really not there!
In other terms...I also fear storms in my life! The hard times that come up! The times that threaten everything I have worked for!
Those storms make me feel like I am out of controll..when in reality, I dont need to be in controll.


Now, y'all go over and pick a promt!

Crazy Love

Its kinda hard for me to put this one here cause I dont want to be seen as a moocher but I feel that the Lord brought THIS BLOG into my life today to use it! So here it goes!



1. Do you and your family tithe?
Since I am single I would have to say, yes I tithe! Allot of times I dont just give to my church but I give to missions, dear friends in need, and who or whatever the Lord lays on my heart I am open to! It is not my money but the Lords!

2. What Church do you attend?
I attend the French Camp Presbyterian church here in French Camp! I am a member of my home church Calvary Baptist in Texas!

3. Are you involved in your church at all?
YES...I am the 10th grade girls sunday school class teach, plus, I help with nursery and I also play violin during service!

4. What exactly is your need?
I am working for a ministry called Sermon On The Mount ( www.sermononthemount.org) ! I work as there receptionist and many other things. I work with my family. The only thing is we do not get paid by them. It is a missions support job, so I have to raise my income. At Christmas I sent out over 50 support letters to family and friends, I have only heard from my parents who support me monthy, and that is not even enough to cover my cell phone bill ( YET...The Lord has still been oh so faithfull!)
So after all that..my need is...financial support as I am basically a missionary in the states!

5. How would the money be used?
It would be used to help me live! Cover my cell phone bill, car insurance, gas for my car, my clothing, bathroom products...ext.... I allso am looking at doing some more schooling if the Lord provides as well as I LOVE to bless others with what the Lord gives me!

If you are at all interested more in my ministry..feel you want to give, just want updates from me to pray, or any other info please e-mail me at cooking4him@gmail.com

Thank you so much for taking time to read this, I pray the Lord will bless you amazingly!

Welcome New Friends!

I am going along with all the fun over at The Girl Creative and doing the New Friend Friday!
And since I am doing that...there may be several people who will be reading this blog for the very first time and dont now much about me! In fact, there may be allot of you who fallow me already and dont now much about me! So, today, I will tell! :)

First off my name is Joanna Noel ( thats my first and middle name just cause I love my middle name!) yes, I may be living in French Camp, Mississippi ( really little town in the middle of the deep south) but no, I was born and raised in Spring Creek PA ( really little town in the middle of the frozen north!) I do belive even though I was born Northern I was ment to be a southern girl ( I totally love everything about the south!)
I have 5 amazing siblings and I am oldest out of all of them! One lives in Washington, 2 live in PA and the other 2 live here with me and my parents!
I work at an amazing place called French Camp Academy! We are a christian bording school for underprivalged youth! I love to work with these kids and love them all so much! It is sad to hear and see some of there home backgrounds they come from. Some days I wonder how people could show so much un love to one person.
You will find ( if you stick around and learn more about me through my blog) that I LOVE my friends, my family, My Jesus, and my music! I talk allot about different bands and most recently the amazing Winter Jam 2010 I was able to go to!
I am a Christian and I very much let you now it in my post! I tell what the Lord is doing in my life and if you dont like that, I am very sorry, but I am called to reach out to all the corners of the earth! The Lord has done so much for me, this is the least I can do for Him!
I totally love meeting new blogger friends ( if you fallow me I will always come check your blog out and fallow you!) and totally love comments ( they make me feel happy!)
I will end for now.........but if you have more questions about me..do ask :)
