So...it's been a while. I don't have any cool excuses like school or vacation or anything like that. I just didn't have much to write about.
Justin just got done cutting Jack's hair. It's crazy how much hair a 2.5 pound dog can have. Lately I have just been working and going to church. That's about all there is to do.
We have been in our new church for about a month now. I love it! With the new building, I decided it was time for some new beginnings, so Justin and I joined an adult bible fellowship class for marrieds-30. It has really opened my eyes to the bible and how it can really help in any situation. On Sunday, my heart was humbled when Mike taught us about how it isn't always about us. I know, I should have known this already, right? Well, I did, but my heart really ached when I realized what I could be doing to be more Christian like in society and in church. There is a woman in our class who is really inspiring. She is going through a really rough time trying to get her husband imported here legally from Columbia. There is a strong possiblity that he could be forced to go back to Columbia for 10 years to finish the process. This is something that I will never have to go through so I can't really imagine what she is going through, but I do know that I couldn't spend 10 years away from Justin. He is what brightens my day when I am having a bad one. 10 years of bad days would kill me! Anyway, to continue my story...we all gathered around her to pray for her.. two people prayed aloud and then she prayed. But when she prayed, she didn't lift up her own prayer requests, she lifted us up as her spiritual family, she prayed for the staff at church, she prayed for us in the class that all of our requests were answered. Wow...talk about taking the focus off of oneself. She really inspired me.
So now I have this "church camp attitude" but I plan for it to stay for a lifetime.
Thanks for reading!
