This weekend has been a weekend of total awesomeness!! But alas, it is about at an end…

And since for some reason I’m not in a writing mood(curse you, my muse!! Actually, I think it’s probably just because I’m really hungry and ready for dinner, hmmm…), I don’t think this post will be that long, but I had to at least write something! This past weekend, went to my church’s weekend camp(Redeemer Family Camp 2010 represent!!) and had such a delightfully awesome time! From singing and worshiping with my church family to playing late night Settlers of Cataan and Risk games ’til 3 in the morning…from meditating and pondering on the reality of the death of sin and the fullness of peace we have with Christ(Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus. YES.) to talking for hours with amazing friends to playing basketball tournament games in the baking Texas heat to soaking in the love of the Lord poured out through His people to relaxing in the goodness of my Father! And indeed, God is good!! And I must proclaim his grace and mercy and power and love – all praise to the King of kings and Lord of lords, forever and ever!

And today was full of more beauty…thinking and relishing the loveliness of the Lord as we heard His command to abide in Him, as we do! Eternally! And after church, the good times didn’t end, but a bunch of us went to Jason’s Deli for lunch…and after that, the good times STILL didn’t end, but me, Marci, Adam, Alex, Clay and the Jacobs all went to the “Ice Barn” for the most delicious sno-cones of all time(black cherry deliciousness – staining to the lips and blessing to the stomach!)…and after that, well, we couldn’t part ways quite yet, so me and Marci and Alex went to the Jacobs to hang out with their fam for a bit. Played some poker and then played the most ridiculous game of Monopoly ever(Mega-Monopoly, 10 people, wheeling and dealing galore…hilarity abounded!). And finally, I am home. And now while I am alone in my apartment, I am not alone in spirit. God has blessed me exceedingly with good things and with amazing friends. How can I not love Him, when He has loved me so???

And now I’m less than two weeks from Scotland, about to leave Htown and go on a grand adventure! But oh I will miss people here!

Alright y’all, now it’s time for dinner. Turkey-burgers, baked potato, green beans, milk. Yes? Yes.

Peace!
