About Me

Hi,
My name is Kara Kozloski. Why did i decide to start a blog? Many reasons. I am copying a friend in doing this by documenting a fast that i have decided to do with a friend, and also to document my summer at Eagle Lake, where i will be a counselor. I also am a huge intervert and i tend to keep things to myself so this blog will challenge me to share with people and hopefully encourage them, when i normally would not.

Basic Information
The most important thing in my life is my relationship with God, i try to follow Him daily, and some days i will admit i fall flat on my face when do. That is because i am a sinner and i am not afriad to admit that. I also knwo that I am His (Christ). I have to remind myself of this daily and that i strive to be like Him, Philippians 4:12" Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own". This verse is where the name of my blog comes from.
The second most important thing to me is my family. I am the youngest of four and i would not have it any other way. I love all my family with all my heart. They know me better than anyone espcially my mom, who i talk to almost daily and my sister Hope who can read me like a book, so it is quite impossible for me to keep anything from her.

I also love my friends with all my heart. They have helped through so many things especially Sara, Clare and of course Jenny(who is the friend i copied and am also doing the fast with)

The last most important thing in my life is my work with special needs children. That is my major and i can not image doing anything else with my life. Through my volunteer work i have met my second familly who i do not know what i would do without them. i volunteer and work with a girl named Becca she has autism, but she showed me some much love and reminded of simple things in life. My dream goal in life is to start an orgnization that will help provide parents, who have children with special needs, with the funds to get the best eudcation and therapy for their child (this is a new aspiration that came about today). Thats enough about me.

So the fast that i am doing is called the Daniel fast and it is based off of Daniel in the Bible when He fasted for 21 days. He did not eat any meat and only drank water. He only ate fruit and vegetables. The only things i can eat have to plant based and i can not have sugar or preservatives. I am only four days into it, but i know it is going to be so challenging. Through this challenge i have already had to rely on God through prayer and reading the Bible. My friend Jenny has also been encouraging me through text since we do not live in the same city. Every time i get a strong craving i pray then i remind myself that God is bigger than that craving and anything that i could ever image.
