joy in hebrew means leap for joy.though the fig tree may not blossom, the fields yield no food...yet i will rejoice in the Lord.

i'm in mansfield.

funny how the Lord works things out. like i never thought i'd come here. and here i am, right?

well. the coffee shop is slow. and i prayed it would be busy. oh well. God knows.

it's sunny and it makes me so happy!!! praise the Lord!!!

praise the Lord for... oh loads of things.
like redmire and church retreat that i got to go on and crazy fun people to hang out with. i'm blessed i am.
and people that need babysitter and kids that are fun to sit. hahahmmmm.
and good good classes that challenge me to think hard and think well. i need that.
and cookies and crumble. i was in a baking mood today. and then two people called me betty crocker and i had memories that almost made me cry i was like guhhhhh.
and prayer. i wish i had words.

thank You Jesus for loving me so VERY much. i don't deserve any of it.

i'm reading up on my church history stuff. great fun. haha. honestly, it could be worse.
this morning i woke up and peeked out the blinds and saw the sunshine on the wall and it gave me the courage to get out of bed. so i took my bran flakes and Bible to the wall and reveled in the sun. praise the name of Jesus.

p.s. it's SO good to be back. some moments more than others. but generally just good.

hiatus

i suppose i took a little hiatus from xanga.

i'm leaving for england next thursday. so i may be taking another hiatus. let's see how many times i can say/write that in this post. haha but not funny because i used to get so annoyed when writers would use the same words frequently, especially if that word was even in the least bit unusual.

it's difficult to believe that a year ago (!) i was going to hungary. whew that seems like not so long ago!

tomorrow is my last red robin shift. i have mixed feelings about leaving and then of course coming back. i have lots of praying to do. anything could happen i know.

i bought this 'Anthology of The Will of God' at half price books the other day. i'm afraid lack of use will relegate it to my bookshelf but i wish that wouldn't happen. it kind of already has. why do i do this?

i've done so much shopping in the last week. yikes. i'm not really that much of a shopper, i'm finding out.

o Love that wilt not let me go,
i rest my weary soul in Thee;
i give Thee back the life i owe,
that in Thine ocean depths its flow
may richer, fuller be.

-george matheson
