Today is the last day of June. My birthday is officially in two weeks. I slept in today. I did not wake up until 9:30. I needed the rest so I allowed it. My parents left to go to a funeral this morning and it was only me and my younger brothers at home. I filled out the permission slip for camp. The third week of August, I will not be posting journals. When I get back, I will post exactly what I wrote in the notebook I take with me. Just so you have a heads up for what happens in August, there it is. You can probably guess what I did today. I listened to music and played Spider Solitaire. I also watched YouTube and I wrote a chapter in one of my books. Currently, I am stuck in writing Hybrid in Hiding. If you have any suggestions for that please PM me.

I just watched the music video for Heathens by Twenty One Pilots. To be honest, it makes me want to see Suicide Squad. I might not know much about Marvel (is that the right universe) but I know I like the villains more than the heroes. Her is the music video. It does not belong to me. If you want to suggest a song, put it in the comments.

Today is Michael Phelps' 31st birthday. I remember watching the 2012 London Olympic games after I turned eleven years old. I never missed watching swimming or equestrian. Phelps is a swimmer for the American team and has won 22 gold medals. He was the youngest swimmer. His wife had a son, Boomer, this year. I was always rooting for him and I will still be rooting next year at the Olympics from the comfort of my home. A picture of him is at the top.

Jude 1:4
I say this because some godless people have wormed their way in among you, saying that God's forgiveness allows us to live immortal lives. The fate of such people was determined long ago, for they have turned against our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

"Grace is not a "get out of jail" card for doing anything that we want. People will want to justify their behavior using the language of grace, but this is a perversion, or a reversal of the concept of grace. Grace doesn't just deal with what we do, but why we do it, and the person who is gripped by grace is someone who is experiencing God's deep supernatural power to break the cycle of their sin." -Dave Whitehead.

I have no prayer requests or praises for today, but if you have any put them in the comments as I would love to pray for you. You may also add an unspoken, just list that.
