Wow!

Tonight as I looked up into the bright moonlit sky, I was very aware of the Greatness of God - very aware of the fact that He is the creator of all that exists and is far greater than our minds can even comprehend. In this moment I was very aware of my sinfulness - very aware of all of the rebellion and wickedness and sin that has been in my life. And I was just in awe that God would be so patient with me - that He would call me His child, because I have believed in Jesus and have chosen to turn from my sinful lifestyle...And even now, when I do fall short of the glory of God, He has unending grace and mercy to extend to me, because the blood of Jesus covers me! Truly, this is amazing! Truly, God is awesome! To think that God the Great Creator would be so patient, merciful, and gracious, is just incredible!

Two Infections

Last week I found out I have both a sinus infection and a broncherial infection (Bronchitus).  I think I had both infections 2 or 3 weeks before I went to the DR, so I think they're pretty deep infections. I took one round of antibiotics and I'm starting another round because I still feel horrible and absolutely exhausted.

Please pray for my healing and that I would rest in the Lord during this time. Thank you!

Transitioning

I haven't moved up to Hagerstown yet, but I already feel that I am dealing with the transtions that will come with that move, particularly in the way of friends. All of my friends, both local and long distance, have been so busy lately that I have found myself often longing for meaningful female interaction, whether in person or over the phone. It makes me realize that my move to Hagerstown will be tough until I have established at least one or two good friendships in the area. Thankfully, I feel that God is already working to acquaint me with some Christian friends. This last week at church, one of the young couples came up and asked Chad and I for our phone numbers so that they could call and invite us over for dinner. We were both very excited and encouraged by this and believe it is God working to answer our prayers.

Sometimes, though, it is hard - dealing with transitioning friendships, realizing that the nature of many friendships will inevitably change as life happens. It is in these times, that one can be even more appreciative of the constancy of a marriage partner who truly loves you as Christ would. Thank God for Chad - I love him so much! And if God brought me Chad, then He will surely bring me some good girlfriends in Hagerstown. God truly is faithful. :)

Prayers

Hey, I could really use some prayers. I'm dealing with some spiritual battles, and with trusting God. If you have a moment, I would appreciate your petitioning God on my behalf. Thank you!

I am but a breath...

This last week I have really been aware of my mortality, and of the mortality of all men. The eyes of my heart have really been opened to the truth of how temporal and fleeting this life really is. I think that when a person begins to really accept this truth they cannot help but to consider God. For myself, as I come face to face with my own mortality, I am more humbled by the holiness and greatness of God. How can I possibly stand before One so Great? ONLY by the blood of Jesus Christ!! It has absolutely nothing to do with me...
