A little tidbit

I haven't posted an update in a while and trust me-it hasn't been due to lack of material! There's so much I want to blog about that it's hard to find a starting point. I have been inspired to write off and on but then don't because I am tired or don't feel like it at the moment. So here are some random tidbits until I get into my full blogging swing again.

It's really cold-so cold that when I walk to the subway in the morning it feels like the insides of my nostrils have frozen up. It's a weird sensation. And I pray-"Lord-please help me, please God help me get through this." Then I remember how I still need to buy earmuffs and a hat or something....even if it's one of those dorky looking hats with built in ear cover things-hey fashion doesn't matter at this point-if it keeps me warm it's good for me!

I LOVE THE WORD OF GOD!!! It has been so explosive! I am getting more out of the bible and understanding it in a way that I never have before. This is awesome! I have been filling my little "verse book" up and treasure being able to write at least one down during my 15 minute lunch break. I began reading in Timothy and I just kept on going....I'm in the Peter letters now. I love the Peter letters-they are ones that I treasured and loved to read when I was a brand new baby believer. It's been really awesome to find my special verses again. Also, God has been using the word to do some "tough love" on me. It hasn't been fun taking a close look at myself and the things of my sin nature but I thank God that He loves me in spite of it and still died for me-to set me free. Thank you God for your amazing love!

Church is awesome. I love the folks there-especially this older lady named Mary. I have taken quite a liking to her and we have great talks. I have made some friends there and I love hanging out with them and playing games. I love work-it's cool. Mom, Maria & Evan will be here soon!!!! They should be arriving in about a week-woohoo!!! I can't wait to tackle them down with kisses and hugs! Evan is so gonna get some lovin' from his auntie! I'll probably spend the last 2 weeks of February in western MA staying with my mom and helping them get settled into their new house. I'm sure I'll get to see Jen, Arnaldo, Roy and Becky too so that'll be cool. I totally see God moving-especially in Roy-I see changes man!

I'm still dreaming big and God is continually taking out His paintbrush and adding more colorful strokes to my life's canvas. I'm sitting back and watching Him create His masterpiece. It's not done yet but boy is it quite an incredible work in progress!
