God At Work

Our God is so incredible. I feel so full that it is hard to reduce it down into words... actually it's impossible. The weekend was wonderful. I finished getting the Christmas lights up outside, carried off the remaining leaves and sticks and stuff from our work last weekend, we went with Hannah's mother and got a tree, we set up our artificial tree in the basement, Hannah went to the Christmas Tea with the women from our church and we went to the hanging of the greenery at New Beginnings. It was a beautiful and refreshing weekend in so many ways. Riley Joy is walking all the time now. She just started doing it regularly on Saturday. She has decided it is often easier and quicker to walk from point A to point B rather than crawl. Hannah had a wonderful time at the tea and the experience there cemented our decision that we are going to settle into Calvary Chapel Living Water. I have been listening to the Word of Promise dramatized New Testament Audio Bible and have just been being so blessed by it. God has been opening up the Scriptures so much to me and I am enjoying it so much. I officially started saving for Bible College on Thursday and from now on a certain portion of all of my paychecks will automatically be put into an account specifically for that. In four years (or less) I will be able to begin! I want to be out of debt before starting... so when I start depends on that. I will be able to get my Associate in Theology degree for $8000 altogether and will be able to study from home. I am really excited!

Might everything change? Yup! That is the way life is and the way God often works. But I am enjoying it, and will continue to enjoy it even if everything changes. Luckily God has the perfect plan!

And on another note: Christmas is my favorite time!!!
