Adventures!!!

Well, too start off with I got a "new" phone yesterday, actually it's just like the one I had. So if you want to text me your number that would be awesome, because at this point I probably don't have your number...yep all my contacts for all the awesome people I know were left in the lake. :)
So, start off with, I'm a little board (sitting in Starbucks)...well maybe I should start off with everything that happened this morning, We were planning on leaving at 9 am this morning to head up to the Northwoods, but that didn't happen...so we found ourselves pulling out of the Staff Center around 10 am. Life seems to be going great, just resting and enjoying the ride, then we get a call saying that we left one of the girls that was supposed to be coming in our van. So we turn around and head back to the Staff Center, We pick up Hannah and head off again. Well all that said, I thought that was a pretty good adventure....until we get the next call saying that Mr. Gothard and the other guys that were traveling with him, the transmission in their vehicle went out...Yeah, not good, so they took our van and they droped three of us off at Wal-mart and Starbucks, and they headed up North. Yep, so that's how the day is going so far, I just love adventures!!! They are so fun, you just never know what is around the corner! :) Anyways, that's about all I have to say, you would have to be here to understand it all. Life is great! You can't help but love it!

Lost Phone. . .

So, if you have my number don't try too call or text because it is lost in a lake, I might tell the stroy later.... Anyways you won't be able to get ahold of me, you can email me or simply wait till I get a new phone, but I will need most of your numbers again, because my memory of phone numbers was on my phone which currently, is on the bottom of the sea. :) So I will let you know when I get a new phone and maybe you can text me your number. I had a great day yesterday (besides loosing my phone, but hey things could be worse), the Stress Resolution Seminar ended and we had a great staff meeting! It's really kind of wierd because the Lord has blessed me with a great day and a joy that isn't containable! May God richly bless each one of you with an extra special day!

The Lord is so good it's hard to describe how he watches over us and keeps us safe. He only allows things in our life that would benifit us the most. I stand amazed at how he turns not so great situations into something truly magnificent, so that we might honor Him and give glory to His name.

Photoshoot on Saturday!

Abby and I went out on Saturday, and she took a few random pictures. Everything is going well here, I've been helping out in the Graphic Arts department which has been a great experience and of coarse always learning new stuff. Anyways that's about all for now. May you continue to seek the Lord and draw closer to His holiness.



We had a lot of fun, it was great to spend time together!

Chick-Fil-A

Last night we went out for dinner, it was a blessing to support chick-fil-a in their effort to stand for what is right.

"Eat More Chicken"

Hannah is an awesome friend, she's always encouraging me in my walk with the Lord!

This is the line at Chick-Fil-A!
Yep, it was pretty long, the line at the stop light was probably backed up about 50 cars waiting to get through, but it was totally worth it! The line moved really fast and the service was great!

Our "little group" or maybe not so little, you can't see everyone in the photo.

Eating our delicious food! We had a great time of fellowship!

Most of the group, it was a lot of fun.

Love vs. Selfishness


Love is giving to the basic needs of others so that their authorities get the credit, God gets the glory, and we have the joy of eternal rewards.

"The knowledge that God has loved me to the uttermost will send me forth into the world to love in the same way." - Oswald Chambers

Love is enjoying the fellowship of another and showing by laying aside personal rights.

"One of the world's worst tragedies is that we allow our hearts to shrink until there is room in them for little beside ourselves." - A.W. Tozer

Genuine love is giving without any expectation of personal gain.
