Sunshiney Day!

Ahh sunshine..


I love love love Saturdays! They are my absolute favorite day of the week.
Sleeping in,
Reading for fun, yes I do that and it's amazing by the way,
Jesus time,
Naps,
Time with my man,
& my community,
and enjoying God's breathtaking creation.

Today has been wonderful, aside from the homework and dreading dead week in two days. It's so good to wake up to read God's powerful word. Oh and I also love to enjoy delicious food on Saturdays. Today my boyfriend to me to a wonderful breakfast place, Sam's Station, for lunch and wow was my tummy satisfied and happy. Lately, I've been having a hard time being completely satisfied, content or happy. I'm finding myself complaining way too much about my busy busy crazy life. Heck, I already mentioned earlier that I'm stressed about this next week. Yes, I'm getting overwhelmed by school but the truth is I need to trust in my Father more. This past week I tried my best every morning to rise early and spend some time with my Lord. Granted I'm not a morning person and I love my sleep but it has been so worth it. God has brought me peace and joy even in though it's crunch time. I would highly recommend reading 1 Peter! Never underestimate the power of God's word. I know that I have and never again do I want to put it on the back burner. Soaking up in his healing and encouraging words is the best thing! Also soaking up all this sunshine is absolutely wonderful!

I hope your rest of your Saturday is enjoyable as mine has been. I'm looking forward to birthday shopping for my adorable future roommie Casie and celebrating her day with a midnight hike tonight! Oh how we all love adventures!

So have a happy sunshiny and joyous day!
P.S. please listen to Bethel Live! I've been so encouraged by their worship, their songs are soo good!

New eyes, new life.

First off I want to thank all of you who supported me financially and prayerfully. You all made a huge effort in getting me to summit and I can't thank you enough! Without you and Jesus of course, I wouldn't have had such an amazing and life changing experience.  If you couldn't already tell summit was amazing ! Not only did I gain amazing new relationships with my friends in IV(Intervarsity Christian Fellowship), but I gained an entire new perspective of how I look at the world and how I want to live in it. We studied in Acts and learned how to live in a community that eats together, prays together and does everything else together. We learned to live simply and realized that we actually can survive with the bare necessities and that we don't really need the things that we want. Who seriously needs to have every new material possession? If you think about it you will be able live without it, I promise you. We spent our days at work cites as we served the homele

Picked up from the fall.

Over this past weekend I had a chance to embrace one of my fears, skiing. It was my first time and I was going to put my fears behind me and enjoy God's wonderful nature. However, funny story, I was half way down my first run, on the bunny hill that is, and I was doing alright until...I biffed it. I'm not sure how I accomplished it but somehow I landed faced down with my legs all twisted and my skis flung on both sides of me. I sprained my ankle and now I'm back in daily life trying to make it around on crutches. Haha it's just my luck, maybe later I will try to ski again but for now I'm hobbling around trying not to hurt myself anymore. I've realized through this that I have amazing friends that care so much for me, getting me dinner, carrying me up the stairs and teasing me to make me feel better. I'm not sure why this is apart of God's crazy plan for me but maybe he wants me to take rest and rely on Him only. So it all comes down to just embracing my
