Still Learning...


Well, I've not proven to not be a very good blogger yet. My "reasoning" for not writing is that I have pictures on my camera that I wanted to upload but my computer at home is having issues with not identifying my driver so I can't upload them as of yet. Not a very good reason, huh? So, here I am again plugging away at a blog entry b/c my friend, Christa, said she is waiting for one...Speaking of Christa...I had a great time visiting her and Matt in the Minneapolis area. Christa and I attended the Downpour conference last weekend and had a great time. The speakers were very challenging and I can honestly say I have not been the same since. My walk with God has been richer and more beautiful than before. The sessions were God on the Throne - A Picture of Holiness, Sin in the Mirror - A Picture of Brokenness, Self in the Dirt - A Picture of Repentance, Christ on the Cross - A Picture of Grace and, Spirit in Control - A Picture of Power. God continues to challenge me with the things I learned that weekend and He continues to cement them in my mind and heart. I drove home Sunday afternoon and was able to witness this amazing sunset as I was nearing home.The Monday after the conference I headed to Chicago with my friend, Lisa, to spend some time with our friend, Angie. Angie leaves tomorrow for one year in Cape Town, South Africa to do missions work with Straatwerk and we wanted to spend some time with her before she went. As usual, we had a blast just hanging out with her, Molly, and Sue. We spent a lot of time talking and praying...it's always refreshing to visit the girls in Chicago!! My parents are coming for a visit tomorrow night so I better get my room cleaned! I will leave you with this verse that I am memorizing right now. 2 Chronicles 16:9, "For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him." Are you fully committed to Him?
