Wow, so I totally forgot this thing existed. My bad. It's certainly been a while. My life has changed drastically since the last time I posted.. and this is just going to be a random recap of the last ten(ish) months in the totally crazy life of Allie Mills. So, September I can't even remember. I know some great stuff probably happened. Hold up, yeah, Great stuff did happen. Charles Carrin came to the Inn (Christian Training Center International). I was reunited with an amazing woman, Carol, who I was blessed to stay with and get to know in the Dominican Republic last summer. She totally blessed my socks off!
November: I don't know what happened here at all. It got cold, I was taking way too many classes and working my butt off. Ohhhhh yeah. I gave a talk on the story of the Prodigal son at chrysalis in november. I got to spend the weekend with an amazing community full of people, be a table leader for the first time, and love on some new friends. I shared the depths of my testimony to a ton of people, which I had only shared with one person previously. It was amazing. God did such a work that weekend!
December: Christmas is hereeee. So is baby Jesus. Just kidding. Yeah, this month is also a blur. Most of this time was just spent longing to be somewhere else. I wasted quite a few months with my left in other places. The trees in Manoboa, the hearts of orphans I've yet to meet, a group of interns that I miss like crazy, and a boy.
January: I brought in the new year in Kansas City, Missouri, at the International House of Prayer. Talk about crazy amazing! I ended 2012 encountering the Living God, and started the year in the same way!!
February: This month was spent running from the father's heart for me. Spent some time working through old hurts. I spent alot of time denying the healing that had already been provided for them. To make it even worse, I lost one of my best friends on February 22nd. Justin was killed in a car accident, leaving me with a giant hole in my heart.
March: I gave a talk on Christian growth through study. Then I turned 18. I bought my first lottery ticket, and it was no longer special. Still numb from loss, and angry at the world. I had a brief relationship, what a waste of timeeee. hahaha. But really. I mean I tried, I just wasn't capable of dating.
April : I spent this month blowing off all responsibility and screwing up my future. I started hanging out with some not so great friends, not doing any work in school, forget about reading my word outside of church. That was unheard of during this 30 days. I was frustrated... I hated being in my own skin. Anxiety took over, depression lingered.
May: Well, This has been an eventful month. I failed my biology class (reference April for my self justification). So, I've started a summer class. I finished High school, graduated with an associates degree, (which I will receive in the mail post completion of Conceptual Physics), started working full time alongside a part time job, and have realized I have no idea what to do with my life in the future. So there it is.
This is me. Currently.
Allie Mills. 18 years old. Uncertain about the future.
Certain about only one thing: God is faithful when I am faithless.
