finally

I know. I've very over due. So I'm going to copy my old roommate, Katie, and do this blog the way we used to... informative lists. Awesome.

This past weekend was Journey (Disciple Now). I had 11th grade girls and it was awesome! God moved in mighty ways.

I keep fooling my self into thinking that life will soon slow down. I think it helps me for the time being.

Daniel and I just celebrated 4 months. :)

The weather has flirted around the upper 60's for too long. I'm ready for beach weather.

This semester feels soooo different then last semester. I am really enjoying my job and my students. Not that I didn't last semester, just more so this semester.

I had my first (and hopefully last) MRI this past week. It was unpleasant.

On the medical note, I broke my toe.

3 more weeks to Spring Break! Me and Daniel are meeting up with my family in Austin. Can't wait!!

Sarah is about a month and a half away from having little Joshua. I'm looking forward to holding him.

Last week I got asked to write 4 letters of recommendation for my students. They must like me.

I realized this weekend that I truly enjoy working in the ministry. I help out with the junior high on Sundays right now, and will soon be leading a small group for the college ministry. This weekend though made me want to work in some way with the high school too, but I guess I have to limit myself before I make too many commitments.

In my small group we have been doing the Experiencing God study. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a new and refreshing devotional. It has dramatically changed the way I view and approach my relationship with God.

Daniel and I have been memorizing Romans 8. Here's what I got so far. I'm sure I'm missing some words....

Therefore there is now no condemnation for anyone who is in Christ Jesus for the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death. For what the law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh as an offering, He condemned sin in the flesh so that the requirement of the law might be fullfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For a mind set on the flesh leads to death, but a mind set on the Spirit leads to life and peace, because a mind set on the flesh is hostile towards God for it does not subject itself to the Law of God, for it is not even able to do so, and those who are in the flesh can not please God.


...I need to get some work done :(

DEBATE IS OVER!

Dear Mom,
I told you I would update my blog today, but the day got away from me and I no longer feel like sitting down and catching the world wide web up on my life. Perhaps I will tomorrow. Until then, please accept this short and inadequate blog and know that a much overdue one is on the way. Love, Your favorite daughter.
