My Hubby! ♥ =)
Father, lead me day by day
Ever in Thine own sweet way
Teach me to be pure and true
Show me what I ought to do
When I'm tempted to do wrong
Make me steadfast, wise, and strong
And when all alone I stand
Shield me with Thy mighty hand
May I do the good I know
Be Thy loving child below
Then at last go home to Thee
Evermore Thy child to be
{J. P. Hopps, 1834-1912}
Bless me, O Lord, and let my food strengthen me to serve thee, for Jesus Christ's sake. AMEN.
Some of the artists whose music, ministry and message have influenced, encouraged, inspired and sparked that passion for Christ's sake in the deepest parts of me.

Hey Yolanda. Yeah I'm SUPER excited about going to the womens retreat. Actually, I'm excited about everything happening this summer and getting to be there in general!! I was nervous for my "Life in the UK" test that I had to take to be able to apply for residency in the fall. But I took it on Friday and passed! Yippee!!!!
WOW! Has it really almost been a year for you two!?!? congrats!! I hear ya on the little things...I wish I had more time...but lately, its been all I can do to serve on worship team, and the high school ministry amidst planning a wedding for this aug. and finding a place to live in CO where he will be stationed at and getting things in order here.....amoung a very loooong list of tiny stresses that have been keeping my time rather tied up! But...I'm feeling really excited about it all. I think mostly I am excited to see Eric. God has been teaching me to focus on one thing at a time....His job is to plan, so to speak, since He already knows what is going to happen....I just need to be still and rest in the moment. And not look ahead. So that has been wonderful. Life is good....and in the grand sceme of things...I still have my legs! :) Meaning, I have a lot of things to be blessed about, you know? :)
aww... thanks for the love. i miss you! and thanks for your comment about my picture. it's one of my favorites. my most favorite picture isn't on my computer. it's a old-fashioned hard copy. =) *hugS*
no, I don't have time. I work everyday and then I have class... I just go online to check if I have messages, but that's about it. I'm doing ok. A little stressed and depressed.
Hey you!! Yeah.....two weeks!! I can't wait! I miss him SOOOOOOOO MUCH!! It will be nice...haven't seen him since jan 4th! heh....not like I'm counting...ok, I am! lol
Hey, how's it going? I was gonna send you a hello message but it wont because it says you're marked as away. Anyways, just wanted to say hi. Hope everything is well with you and Gregg. God bless.
thank you!! those are my dad's best friends kids and i babysit them alot they are adorable!!! haha. so how are you and greg doing?? i dont get to stay and talk alot on mondays right now cuz i have to be home for school
haha! Yes, I really want to do the Cruisin Grand thing when it starts! It's a great idea and will be a great outreach. Plus, I would get to play my guitar and give praises to the Lord one extra day out of teh week! YAY! Not saying that I only give praises to God at church, but you get what I mean! And yes, that is an amazing song by Jeremy Camp. If I could get the chords for it I would totally play it in the youth group!
OH! right... thank you by the way. i was tired of my baby picture to be honest... well... for the potatoes: check your messages! i don't wanna leave a huge long comment on your page! c ya sistah!

COOL! the video is a SEND promo video I have it on my myspace its like 4minutes long...it's the second video on the far left. Yeah the talk went well I was greatly encouraged! I also got to talk with Josh a little.. so that was just more confirmation from God. I will tell you about it when I see you. Yes my plan (lately I have not been allowed to make any firm plans) is to go to the missions night! I am excited, what do I need to bring for the potluck? It's at 530 right?
Oh Yeah, when did it come out. Im glad you got to read it! Was it too long you think? I could have gone on forever LOL. I am so blessed by how God used you in my life Yo!
Awesome! we're gonna pan fry chicken breast, and steam some asparagus... maybe. they're up to 2.99/lb right now... :( and make a fresh spring salad and a caramel cheesecake for desert. its gonna be yummy! See you monday!
I'm trying not to be a total couch potato on my days off too. especially since i have homework i could be doing... hahaha and a gov't test to study for... My mom had a B-e-a-utiful vegetable garden before i was born. (i've heard about it alot... i'm going on what i've heard, obviously not seen... lol) i would love to start one too. but i can't really afford it. I'm a poor college student! will you and greg be coming up on the 10th for bible study? casey and i are trying to figure out how many will be coming so we can prepare enough food!
