What a beautiful day!!!

You know those days when everything is just amazing? Well today is one of those days for me...I woke up this morning and went for a walk. It was so beautiful ... crisp and cool. Just wonderful. And everything else today has just been perfect. I thank God for the opportunity to be able to enjoy this time down here...He is teaching me so much and I just love Him more everyday!

Psalms

"For he satisfieth the longing soul..." Ps 107:9

I just came across this verse during devotions this morning and it encouraged me so much! God is all I need and in HIM I am satisfied. Isn't He awesome?

beautiful Nicaragua

beatiful Nicaragua

the camp we worked at
at the orphanage
door to door witnessing


Last week we had the opportunity to go to Nicaragua on a missions trip. It was SO beautiful and we had a wonderful time. We took a bus from San Jose to Managua on Tues...Wed, we split up into groups and went door to door witnessing. It was an amazing opportunity to practice Spanish and 5 people got saved! It was so awesome! Then that afternoon we went to an orphanage and sang songs, did a few dramas, and played with the kids. Thurs was our free day - we took a 4hr boat tour of the Granada islands and went shopping. Fri we went to a camp to work - painting, cleaning ditches, gathering firewood, cleaning...all that fun stuff. And Sat we came home. It only took 5hrs to cross the border =] All in all tho it was a wonderful trip.

My wonderful family!

I am very blessed. God gave me a wonderful family! I am proud to say that my brothers and sisters are my best friends...I don't know what I would do without them.

All in All

You are my strength when I am weak
You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all

Seeking you as a precious jewel
Lord to give up I'd be a fool
You are my all in all

Jesus, Lamb of God, worthy is your name
Jesus, Lamb of God, worthy is your name

Taking my sin, my cross, my shame
Rising again I bless your name
You are my all in all

When I am down you lift me up
When I am dry you fill my cup
You are my all in all

God's Amazing Love

This is one of my favorite hymns...especially the last verse. God is the Creator of the Universe and still He loves us!

The Love of God

The love of God is greater far
Than tongue or pen can ever tell
It goes beyond the highest star
And reaches to the lowest hell

The guilty pair bowed down with care
God sent His Son to die
His erring child, He reconciled
And pardoned from his sin

Chorus:
Oh love of God, how rich and pure
How measureless and strong
It shall forever more endure
The saints’ and angels’ song

Could we with ink the ocean fill
And were the sky of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill
And every man a scribe by trade

To write the love of God above
Would drain the oceans dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole
Though stretched from sky to sky
