So I'm writing again - amazing - I know - it's only been a day and a half since I've written! Well, since I'm doing some fiction writing, I felt like doing a little blogging as well. It has been a good week - my brother turned 20 yesterday - absolutely amazing - now only my sister is a teenager. I am so proud of my brother - he has come a long way - I look forward to seeing what God is going to do in his life. I know he's excited that his band finally has their cd finished - I plan on getting one when it comes. :) I'm such a proud sister.

I've been thinking alot about the life-giving God we have lately. I have been studying (and will be teaching about tomorrow) the dry-bones story in Ezekiel - God's promise to take the dry bones that was/is Israel and bring it back to life. It is amazing that we have a God who can bring that life into what is completely and positively dead. The same goes with us and salvation. We were once dead in our sins and because of the life God has breathed in us, we can live forever with him if we believe in what his Son did. Praise God. We have a God who will keep his promises - even if we don't necessarily know what the outcome of those promises will be. I can trust God to lead me step by step - He knows what is best for me - I don't need a road map of my life - He will show me where I need to be at just the right time. May I constantly trust My ABBA in all things and not just some.

Or should I say - goodbye to my money as it pays all the necessary evils of the world. The biggest chunk of it went to my car today - oh well. At least my car is healthy again and it passed inspection. That is the important thing.

I am still working on becoming an RA at BFA - there is much to the process - gotta get the background check finished and then have my interviews. It will be nice to get everything done with.

It was a weird weather day today - rain sun rain sun (rainbow too) - I think it is even supposed to snow tonight. Insanity. Shouldn't be too bad though. Whoa I almost said that it shouldn't be back enough to cancel church but it's not sunday tomorrow - I am thinking it is the weekend. That's what happens when you have winter break and each day is not the same routine!

I am so excited though that a week from tomorrow I will see Jonathan Michael - yay. We will have good times I am sure. We usually do. Thank you God for this chance to be together!

Snowstorm

Well, the Lord definitely controls all plans - considering how I was planning on going to NJ this weekend to see Bek but I stayed home because of the snow that finally began tonight. It is supposed to be a blizzard up until tomorrow afternoon - craziness. Though I wanted to go away, I am thankful that I am safe at home and I don't have to drive too much on icy snowy roads. In fact I had the chance to hang with my mom and sis today - something that rarely happens - esp. since my sister works all the time. She took off this weekend though -and it was really cool. I am so thankful to be here and have a little respite despite all I need to do. This application process for Germany is taking a while - but I think it will be worth it in the end. Well, time to go for now - happy snowball fighting :)
