okay-this weekend was actually stinking awesome! friday it snowed-a lot! we had a friend over, her name is angela and she is from malaysia! she has never seen snow before and friday i was able to blessed by being around her when it started snowing! it kind of made me feel a little bad because i was complaining earlier in the day about snow and to hear angela talk about how beautiful and wonderful it was was a little convicting! it was an amazing night! had a giant snowball fight with lots of friends, built many snowmen/penguins, and ate snow cream! yummy! i was worried about the weather for saturday because i had plans to go to savannah, ga and i didn't want to cancel. luckily, it was all melty in the morning. i drove to savannah and got to see a friend i haven't seen in a long time. we shopped for the entire afternoon then i ventured back to columbia. it was such a fun day, after such an amazing night before. it was nice to laugh almost the entire day, even if it involved me getting embarassed while being forced to try on camo. when i got back i went and shot some basketballs at the strom with a friend and got a good 2 hour practice! i'm getting pretty dang good..bahah. i wish!
that brings us up to today-valentines day. this morning i went to church and we talked about 2 timothy 4. how we need to be encouraging and reproving. the word of the Lord is sugar-coated way too much. we just talked about we need to truly live the gospel and preach it. pretty convicting. all too much i get nervous about rubbing people the wrong way or whatever- the gospel is truth. and that needs to be shown to people, in love of course. but, still. also-in the college group we talked about the second half of james 1. talking about how we need to be quick to hear and slow to speak. and the authenticity of faith. what it looks like to be not only hear-ers of the word, but do-ers. hm. pondering that. what does that look like in my own life? what do i need to lay down, in order to pick up the truth and live that out?
this afternoon i got a lot of errands done and just got to relax around. i'm now sitting in my room at my desk while one of my roomies is cooking dinner with her boy in our kitchen and the other is at her boyfriends apartment cooking dinner with him. i actually dont mind at all. it has given me a lot of time to think and such. God has blessed me so much lately. He is awesome. His love really is captivating. how awesome.
well-still going to make some valentines day crafts. awesome-still like a 5 year old. :) love it.
pink pancakes for dinner. they will include chocolate chips, too. awesome!
