Isaiah 55

Isaiah 55 rocks my socks off...just an fyi. God gave it to me this morning, and I am so in awe of Him. He knows exactly what I need to hear exactly when I need to hear it.

I had a lovely trip to SGF this last weekend, and I really was ready to be back there for good, but I just have about two and a half weeks left until I am. Well, I have the trip to VI and then I'm in SGF. I can't believe how the summer has flown by, and yet at the same time, looking back it seems like forever. Funny how that works.

I'm a little stressed about my financial aid because I haven't received any information on it yet, and it's almost August!! So I'm going to call on it today. I also am going to call the chiropractor that my friend goes to in SGF and set up an appointment because I'm going to get a really good deal on it. :) Thanks K!!

That is a real answer to pray because I have been thinking that I really would like to go because my back hasn't been feeling the greatest, and running jolts my body so much, but I had no idea how I was going to afford it. God is such an extravagent giver!! We can never, ever outgive God...just think about that for a little while!!

I am starting to get excited about packing for the beach...and I am so ready to be there!!

Something fun that I got was when I was back in SGF I stopped by my apartment and picked up my mail, and I had a little photo album of my kids from MOPS in the mail...such a treat!! I love to see their little faces, and to read the notes their mommies have written for me. It really made my day!!

It's been back to the grindstone this week, and I'm working this weekend, but I'm really looking forward to getting my next paycheck. I work this weekend, the next weekend is my parents anniversary and the next weekend, I leave...wow!

Well, that's about all for now...peace! Also love the melody of this song.

Called Beauty

I'm listening to Pandora right now, and the song that is on is Love Song . I'm not sure what exactly that has to do with my life at the moment, but thought I would share it with you all. In fact, I feel rather at a loss as to what I should say as I sit here eating sweet potatoes. I had a lovely run with my roommate, B, today. We both decided that it is much more fun to run with someone than to run outside alone...not to mention smarter as our neighborhood isn't the greatest. Running feels so awesome now. I am getting new running shoes tomorrow, and I'm really excited about them. The lady at the store let me go out on the sidewalk and run back and forth to test them out when I went today to look, and they just felt really amazing. Switching Subjects... I have never really had many guy friends. I'm not sure why. I think part of it had to do with the fact that for a while I was really scared of men in general. Then I went through a men disliking period (I refuse to say

learning to savor

I was asked today if money wasn't an object, if I didn't have to work, if I could do anything in the world, live anywhere in the world, what would I do? I wanted to give her a thoughtful answer, a truthful answer, so I thought about it. If I could do anything what would I do? My heart leapt within me at the thought. It's one of those rare opportunities where you just allow yourself to dream for a minute of a perfect world. What would that world look like? I knew within myself what I would do, and I did my best to express it to this lady. I would have a house on the beach. It would be a safe place, a resting place, a refuge. It would be open to anyone who wanted to come. I would have tea every afternoon with my friends. I would cook and bake. I would work in my garden in the backyard. I would spend hours in communion with my Beloved. I would take walks on the beach, watching the sunset. I would sit on my front porch and soak up the day and night. I would savor life, and I wo

I say Hi!

I have discovered the secret to avoiding awkward situations... things are only awkward if you make them awkward. Think about it. We take our cues from the people around us. If someone else is trying to make you feel awkward, and you just ignore it and go on with life...then they will stop. I was in a situation tonight that could have been awkward, if I had made it that way, but I choose not to. As a result I ended up having a great conversation and was very encouraged and uplifted from it. Anyway...this is going to be short because it has been a very long day and I have a lot of homework to do tomorrow...so tomorrow is going to be a very long day. We finally covered Philippians 3 in Bible Study tonight...so excited to move on. Also, I am greatly enjoying playing chess with a good friend...we are having about a weekly match up. Good times!! I'm getting better, so we'll see if I'm able to eventually pull off a win. Funny how God grants little desires of our hearts. I always k
