REJOICE IN THE LORD, FOR HE IS SO GOOD!

So last night, shortly after getting back from church, I got a call from my sister Callie telling me that they were on there way back to the church building because my sister Maggie was being baptized. I am so happy for her and so proud that she has made this decision to dedicate herself to God. He is so good.

I looked out my window this morning around 7:00 AM and there was about a half inch of snow covering the ground so I put on some sweats and went out and took pictures, then went back to bed. It hasn't stopped snowing all day, and it is absolutely beautiful. How anyone can look at the beauty of nature and doubt God, I'll never understand.

In other news, I am still looking for a job, but I have handed and sent out my resume to a few places, and filled out some online applications. All I can do now is put my trust in God that he will supply all my needs.

I am really enjoying the time that I have gotten to spend with the brethren I have been getting to know at West Main. They have already been making me feel at home with them.

So blessings are abundant in my life right now.

God bless you all.

My home's in Alabama, no matter where I lay my head...

Well I have been in Texas for 3 weeks now and it still seems weird that I would be here. I had never imagined coming to Texas before last year and then I wasn't completly sold on it, but it could be growing on me.

While I have been here I have had a hard time finding a congregation to attend, and really there just isn't one here in Denton. Well, there is one congregation, but I really want to be able to find people in my age group to be around. Not that there isn't value in older people, but I do want to have supportive Christian friends my age. Is that clear at all? So anyways, last night I drove to Lewisville (about a 20 minute drive down the interstate) and attended at the West Main Congregation there. It seems to be a good congregation, and they were very friendly. I'll definitely be going back .

In other news, I still do not have a job. Hopefully I will be able to find something at least this week, even if that means I go back into retail for a little while. I could be okay doing that for a while, but definitly not forever. I am enjoying my apartment, but I still don't know very many people so I get lonely sometimes, and since I don' t have cable or internet it can get rather dull all on my own.

That is really all that is going on with me now. I am hopeful for good things to come though.

God Bless you!

I promise good things do happen; but we do seem to get more than our fair share of illnesses

I took Drake to the Dr. this morning.
He has strep and the flu.
Everyone in our family has called in for a prescription of tamiflu so maybe we won't all get sick too.
Knowing KJ and D they will be sick tomorrow though.
Hope not though.
