FuN nIgHt wItH tHe GiRlS~


Tonight was target, Elf, popcorn, and some good laughs with Malin, Cat, and Marte! Great girls with great hearts, love you~

God is so good!


God has been working in my life in so many ways. He gave me a husband, a roof over my head, and a job. I have made some pretty great friends here in Fergus Falls. I've been going to a seminary wives bibles study, and with that we get prayer partners. Mine is a wonderful woman named Kay Borowski. I love that the Lord has put these people in my life and that they are supportive and pray for us.
Some verses that a dear friend showed to me that I would love to share to you readers are:
Psalm 31:3,4
Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name lead and guide me. Free me from the trap that is set for me, for your are my refuge.
Philippians 3:12
Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
Philippians 4:6,7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

God has taught me patience this fall, I've gotten married, moved somewhere new, and jumped into a job I've never done. There may be real life issues that come up like finances, missing family, and random hardships, but God is always here for us and will always take care of us! I love the Lord and all He does!!!

It's a busy Life




Basicaly true what the title says. It is a busy life... Since my last blog I've been working, dressing up for Halloween, helping at a basketball camp, and taking a last minute trip to the cities. I was asked to help out at a bball camp with 1st to 6th grade girls here at Hillcrest. So yesterday was the first day. It was super fun and they were so uber cute! I can't wait till this next Saturday so I can do it all over again. I loved being out on the court again only this time teaching the game! So great. Then, since I didn't have to work afterwards, I decided last minute that I could go to Nates folks after all for a night. Nate had planned on going, all us kids got Joel (Nate's dad) Gopher Football tickets for an early bday present and so they went to the game (which they won!) and I stayed home with Sue. It was super fun. We had a girls night and got Mcflurries and hit up the redbox to get movies. Then, off to church for the early service today. After church I got to catch up with Lydia and Heidi, my good friends from AFLBS. It was some good times : )
The afternoon was spent eating a fantastic meatloaf by Sue and followed by Vikings and napping, you can guess who did what ha. Now were back in Fergus, Nathaniel translating Greek and myself typing away. Well time to head off to hang out with the girls in the dorm. Good night all.
