Biblical Principles


My Personal Philosophy:

As a Child and Family Services professional, I would try to see my work as a calling to reflect God’s love and compassion. By attempting to ground my actions in biblical principles, my goal is to create environments where families really feel valued, supported, and empowered. I feel like every interaction is truly an opportunity to glorify God through service, demonstrating integrity, kindness, and a commitment to justice. Guided by faith, I strive to be a vessel of healing and hope, ensuring that every child and family I encounter experiences Christ’s unconditional love and grace. I am truly so excited to serve God in my career!



Love and Compassion: Christ commands us to love others as He loves usChrist commands us to love others as He loves us!

This encourages me to persevere in serving families, especially when the work is challenging
This scripture in Galatians encourages me to persevere in serving families, even when the work is challenging.
 Advocating for vulnerable families is a central part of my work, aligned with God’s heart for justice.

Colossians reminds me to serve with excellence, knowing my ultimate accountability is to God

I integrate faith into my career by letting my actions reflect God’s glory and grace.
Justice and Advocacy: Isaiah teaches that we are called to defend the vulnerable and to pursue justice for the oppressed!

Faith in Practice
In my career, I will strive daily to integrate these principles by treating every family with dignity, advocating for their needs, and fostering a culture of empathy and respect. For example, when working with families experiencing trauma, I rely on prayer for guidance and wisdom while applying practical solutions grounded in love. Faith is the foundation of my work, inspiring me to pursue justice, act with integrity, and remain steadfast in service to God and others.

okkkay, so basically i haven't written in ...... forever. i know, i'm sorry. since my miss debby downer pessimistic post. everything turned out okay though! :) apparently it didn't technically count towards our grade. So the ta was like, "forget about it!" it was Grrrreat!! so anyway, i figured i'd give you my life, err nahh

my Grandma!!
Leora Yuvonne Bjarnson!

so this picture was taken in Sun
Valley,

summer and she usually comes with us.
so our relationship is a great one. basically it's me telling her how much she loves me and me making a fool of myself. and her laughi
ng at me and making fun of me because i am a straight up goof. But my Grandma just astounds me, she has been through so much in her life and has has gone through so many trials, yet she doesn't let them ruin her faith or her family. She just stands strong in the gospel and despite all the crap she has gone through she is still so positive and happy, i love my grandma!!

isn't ironic don't ya think, a little too ironic ya i really do think

DuuuuDe!

sooo once upon a time CHellyN is Retarded!
if you don't know me let me explain. I have problems waking up.
If i don't get enough sleep i am screwed.
Most people wake up with their alarm regardless of how tired they are.
They just suck it up and get up.
My body doesn't. It just can't handle it.
If my body is that tired, it doesn't wake up.
it is determined to get the sufficient amount of sleep.
So once upon a time i had to memorize the Gettysburg address and the preamble for my political science class.
So i passed of the preamble a while ago, because i learned it in 8th grade.
We watched that school house rock video 20 million times that sings the preamble, thus i still know it.
I can memorize songs easier than anything else, so i think that's why it stuck.
So i was really worried about the Gettysburg address.
cause i'm not that good of a memorizer.
and unfortunately there is no song linked with the Gettysburg address.
so Sunday night i got the first 2 paragraphs down.
and then last night, Monday (it was due Tuesday in class) i was trying to get the last paragraph.
which is the longest paragraph of the stupid address.
and i was trying, but i wasn't succeeding so well.
so Andy was trying (poor guy working with a failure...) to help me memorize this speech that Honest Abe gave.
and i was suckin it up.
and we ended up staying up fairly late to try and force me to get this speech through my thick head.
and then i had the genius idea to put the speech on my comp.
and then put it on repeat.
so then i plugged my ear buds in and just fell asleep.
listening to the speech.
all night long.
holding onto my computer.
hoping that it would hopefully
somehow
in some way
engrave into my brain.
however, my alarm goes off (my alarm is my phone.)
and as always i go to grab it and go back to bed and work on slowly getting up.
but actually i just grabbed it.
went back to my bed.
and went to sleep.
and then the next thing i know.
i wake up.
at 11:00 am.
my class poly sci class is from 10:00-11:15
at uvu
in o-r-e-m
i live in p-town.
so ten minute drive to school.
plus takes me 10 minutes to find a parking spot.
then to walk to class from my spot.
so ya i shot myself in the foot.
didn't feel so good....
you may be wondering why didn't i go to class that late.
well really i couldn't.
my teacher, the judge.
wouldn't have let me pass it off anyhow.
pass what off though?
i didn't even succeed at memorizing the dang thing.
so here is my,
i.hate.my.life. post.
kill me now.
cause i suck at school
ya i already screwed over my math 1050 grade.
the last test i sucked up.
so i'm shot in that class.
just waiting for the e-mail where the teacher says i did.
guess what.
i'm only taking 2 classes.
i suck at school.

also i suck at work.
i got written up 2 weeks ago.
i clean up old people's crap.
i get scratched at work.

also i am currently waiting to shower.
why can't i you may ask?
my freaking Asian roommate is showering.
like a normal human being?
no.
on-off
on-off
onnn.....offf
i think she's using all the hot water.
i think i wanna beat her up.
seriously i bet i could take her.


sorry for the poor me post today.
i'm just retarded.
and not good at waking up.
or school.
or life.
please do the world a favor,
and kill me now.
ha just kidding.
but SERIOUSLY!
yeah i know this post is a total
downer,
sorry you'r still reading this.

the next one will be happy one.
promise.
honest.

My House, is a Very Very Fine House!


hey Happy New Year!! (almost anyhow..)

i've been home the past week and a half for Christmas break (since in case you were wondering i don't normally live at home) and can i just say my family is Crazy!! haha i love them a whole lot but you should know they are for real crazy. haha of course i wouldn't think it was really my family if they weren't as crazy as i am. Cause i am out of control. But can i just tell you this Christmas wasn't like all the other Christmases i've had. i worked from 10am-6pm which was sort of suckish. because that took up my whole day. because typically i work from 6am-2pm so it was super weird to work from 2-6. anyhow we woke up at 930 they shoved some of my presents at me and then i was like, see ya and was off to work.. haha and then got back when everyone was just kickin' it watching tv and junk.

In case you didn't know i hate driving in the snow. Especially while it is snowing, and my loathing for driving while it is snowing was just proved why juust last night. so my friend brenda and (the photo above is one of her and i in the summer of 09 i believe) i decided to go to the mall. at first we were going to go to the university mall in orem but then i was scared that i couldn't get up this big hill that is on it's way there. so i decided to turn around and go to the mall in south provo. (it is a freaking blizzard by the way. like snowing like CRAZY and you cannot see the roads or any lines on the road or anything like it was for real out of control snowing!!) so i turn around in this blizzard and first of all i may have accidentaly turned into the the on coming traffic...(and if anyone i know reads this, *sss*you are not allowed to tell ANYONE! because you could't see where you were going and i am typically a very good driver and yeah) i couldn't tell so yeah that was the scariest thing ever! we were pretty certain we were going to die.. and then i was going around this stupid round-about near branbury and my tires suck, and it was hecka snowing so we were going around the round about and i was driving quite slow and cautiously, however i slid into a giant truck, but guess what the owners of this truck were a dealership, yess the drivers were test driving this truck. So i try and get out of the round about.. which wasn't easy by the way. and so first the driver called the po-po but we were like the 4th accident in line since ours wasn't that bad. so they called the dealership and and the man from the dealership told me to drive my car to the dealership to check out the truck to see the damage, however i told him i was scared so he asked jokingly if i wanted him to drive it. i accepted his offer, in all seriousness might i add. so he drove back to the dealership and went through the round about the wrong way might i add and hauled a. to the dealership, but when we got there they concluded that the truck was fine and i could leave. my car however you cannot open the passanger door all the way anyway.. :( and the alignment is off..
there is my sad story of the day...
Love you tons to no one who reads this ;)
and may i wish you love and luck, CHellyN

hate is a strong word, but i really really don't like you

okkay so here's the thing. i'm on a mission. This mission is for everyone i know to like me, or at least for me to think they like me.. so my project for the time being is my roommate, i was recently informed that she is not so fond of me.. (here's the thing about CHellyN i act like i'm all cool and stuck up but not so much..) and despite the fact that semester is ending later on in december and she is getting married in january i will get her to love me again. So apparntly i treat her movies badly.. which is a possibility, she's probably right i am not as clean as i'd actually like to be. My parents think i'm super messy, but i try to be clean. Try harder is my goal. plus be suuuper nice and get her to like me betterr!!! plus for everyone (which is no one) reading this i am going to start posting again. just for kicks. i feel like i have some meaningful stories.. okkay i probably don't have meaningful stories. but i like them so i am going to share them with my online journal (this thing right hurr)
