"Give me one pure and holy passion
Give me one magnificent obsession
Give me one glorious ambition for my life
To know and follow hard after You, God.
This world is empty,pale, and cold
compared to following You, My Lord.
Lead me on and I will run after You."
~Passion Worship Band
Today is a BEAUTIFUL DAY! Why?
Welllllll......................
-Jase and I are at our annual outing with the students
at Millikin University for the Vocal Festival.
-We had a great day of fun yesterday on the trip down,
hanging out at the University while the kids practiced.
-A yummy supper at Olive Garden.
-A great concert of AMAZING talented vocals put on by
the University.
-A fun night at the hotel with lotsa great snacks ;)
-Beautiful 50 degree weather and sunshine!!!!
-Starbucks and cinnamon rolls this morning
-Shoes kicked off because it's so warm
-Relaxing with my coffee and HAVING A QUIET TIME!
(I'm ashamed to say with going back to work and our schedules getting
crazy and chaotic, I have been putting my quiet times on the back burner
and finally Saturday morning my grouchiness came to a head. My dear
hubby let me go to the bedroom, shut the door, and sit down with my Bible
and coffee. I got on my face before God in repentance and am making Him
priority again....first and foremost before all else......because otherwise, life
just doesn't work.....at all.)
-Praise and worship coming outa my ear phones
-Feeling rested and at peace
-Being reminded what my magnificent obsession should be
and WHO I am running hard after to pursue..........
Be blessed today knowing your Father loves you so much.

We missed you, but if you are going to be gone, I'd way rather it was for a fun time with Jason. Isn't this weather just amazing. I'd forgotten what warm was like! See you soon,

I just got soo excited for you girl! I know what it's like to get that re-fresher we need and what a big huge hug God gives us when you commit to making him #1 always no matter how crazy life can be at times!!! Time with the hubby was so well deserved, we mommies kinda get shafted in that area too! I missed you (ok, I really really missed Gabe & Ellie more..but...lol)at church, but am so happy you got to do this! LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!
oh, and by the way, I HAVE TO GET A COFFEE CUP LIKE YOURS...lol I've felt cheated since using yours ~ I LOVE the way you can wrap both hands around it and almost hug it =)
