...the little things

Enjoying the Sun!
Winning Dodgeball Team!


so something that I have been really enjoying to do, is to appreciate the little things-the things that i probably would not notice otherwise. Let me give you a few examples:
Every monday morning we have base "immersion" time-which is a time of worship and prayer. It is always really encouraging and this past monday was looking around the room and in front of me was the crossroad DTS students-and these people that around around 40-80 years old. And they have come from all over the country to do a discipleship training school and it is geared toward people that are older. I loved just watching them worship the Lord-with so much passion-with a cane or walker in one hand and the other hand was lifted up to the Lord. It was just such a beautiful picture of all the nations coming together no matter what age in fellowship, worshipping and praising the same God. It brought a big smile to my face. There is a really cute lady named Beverly who walks with the walker, and also has perfectly curled short hair, and a beautiful smile-it is adorable. I love watching how the people here on base interact with the older students-it is such a blessing.
Today i was studying for my test outside-it was around 830pm and it was around dusk and all of a sudden 6 deer run in front of me and they are chasing each other for a few minutes around and behind trees. It was so beautiful just listening and watching that-the nature and enjoying the God's amazing creation.
Easter Sunday was awesome-i went to a service that was at a park right by the lake-and I enjoyed it so much, worshipping and fellowship and just looking at all the the Lord had done for me. It was a beautiful day-the hottest since october-it was 16' and then a friends and I went down to the lake and enjoyed a picnic lunch, laying in the sun and just chatting. It was so beautiful!
Also this past weekend I went with a few girls to a place near by called Big Fork and we enjoyed some pizza-and then took lots of pictures--what girls love to do. Then Saturday the SBS (which is my school) we played dodgeball against the DTS and we won! It was so much fun taking a break from the books and just running around and enjoying time with other people-and then after the came a few of us saw Soul Surfer. It was a good movie--a bit cheesy at times but it had a really great message that even in the most difficult of times God is still glorified.
