And now as my dinner is almost upon me, I wish to just write a few words to express the wonders of this weekend! It has been indeed supremely glorious and relaxing…how can I not thank my Father for what He has given me??

Yesterday I was able to sit in Starbucks and wrap my hands around my coffee mug as I struggled to wrap my mind around the eternal mercies of God…and I couldn’t help but praise Him! And then being able to talk with my family back home(oh the wonderful thing that is cellular communication!) and enjoy a restful evening of reading…

And this morning enjoyed worshiping at church with some of my dearest friends(before I go further, must mention the awesomeness that was Gilc’s song choice today…O For a Thousand Tongues, In Christ Alone, Joyful Joyful, and a really ancient and dusty-sounding translation of A Mighty Fortress…surely never to be paralleled again!) and then a most lovely afternoon spent cooking Mom’s homemade spaghetti sauce and yet more reading…before going back to church and worshiping anew!

And now I’m about to have my epic dinner of spaghetti, meatballs, garlic bread and salad while maybe watching a bit of 24(Season 7, for those interested!). Oh how I cannot fully comprehend the goodness of the Lord. I hope these faint musings echo at least a bit of what I’m feeling now…

Peace, y’all. Peace and love.
