loving living

I know it has been forever, so here goes. I'm not going to try to catch you guys up on my life, because if you want to know you can just ask, ha. But, I do want to talk about some things.

Last night my dear friend from UMHB Skype called me. This was my first Skype video call and it literally was just the best dern thing ever. We talked for 40 minutes and let's face it, I needed it. To be honest when I moved I felt so distant and unwanted from my friends there that it broke my heart. But then she just randomly popped up. It was as if we had never stopped talking. I confessed all the silly mistakes I’ve made since I moved here and like always she challenged me to start reading my bible more and pray more. Honestly, I have really been in the driest zone spiritually for a long time and it has just stunk like cow poopy. But then my dear Kait challenged me to start praying for her family (let’s face it I would do anything for my friends) and that started re-opening doors and bam. Here I am yearning again. Fast forward an hour in the evening and my bestie best twinkie called me. We got on the topic of God and talked about how we both really needed to get our lives back on track.

Then today I had decided to start reading my bible again a bit more, even if it’s just a verse a day. She had been awake a few hours and she texted me to tell me that she was getting her life back on track. She was going to give up the bads and start embracing the goods. I almost started crying I was so proud.

So now we are gonna read the bible together to try to grow more. First on the agenda is Colossians then we will fast forward to the Gospels. After that who knows where God will lead us. But it is so great to know where my life is… to wake up and remember that I have passion for God and that he does things in my life I cannot place aside or ignore.

Here’s to living life and loving it more.
