Monday Monday

Yesterday was one of the best days I've had all semester....I'll even stretch to say all year....and this is why!

• I slept until noon, without waking up to an alarm!
• I made pancakes for the first time that were delicious!
• I received my tax refund check in the mail!
• I received a postcard from Valerie in the mail!
• I received pictures from my mom of Marne in the mail!
• I went to a Reilly concert!
• I got to catch up with a dear friend at the concert (Bettina!!!!!)
• I found out that a friend passed onto her roommate a prayer request for my health and that she was praying for me, and that was a really awesome and incredible feeling!
• I got to pass on the news that their prayers were answered!
• I ate coconut cream pie!
• I went to bed early!

Me and Bettina- she is such a ray of sunshine!

Today I worked, I ran, I was a part of an event that was supposed to pay tribute to children that have died from abuse, and then went to a concert.

The highlight was the concert (Attaboy and News from Verona). Concerts have a special way of soothing my soul and making it joyful all at once. God divinely set up the day to end with a concert, especially since the Event did not go well or smoothly and was very frustrating. God is good and works things out for our good...even the little things.

Joy and Lindsey (two girls from the H.S. group I led) got to dance on stage

I love when people have expressive eyebrows!

Oh! I was able to end my day with an overdue long phone conversation with Valerie. I am so grateful to have her as a friend which is convicting me to be more bold in speaking to her about her faith...I have had difficult living 8 hours away from her, I am deeply saddened/burdened imagining eternity without her.
