A wonderful Thanksgiving and a Wonderful Band.
So I recently got back from my annual Thanksgiving camping trip, lets just say it was a well needed brake. We have been going camping for Thanksgiving for as long as I can remember. It is so peaceful out there it seems as if everything that you would worry about just seems to be put on hold out there. And of course it is one of the times a year when we all are able to get together and spend some quality time with one another.
So after I got home on Saturday, I was able to look forward to the concert that was being put on at our church by a few of the guys from Spur58. Everytime I have heard them play they bless me in so many ways. There is this one song of theirs that I absolutely love that they have played everytime I have heard them play. It just touches me in so many ways, and of course this song is one that they never had the chance to record as a band. The song is called “Found” and the lyrics of this song are truly amazing. This is a line from the chorus…” You’ve taken my brokeness and made me whole once again and all of my life is found in you. Oh God of beauty and grace, you are my resting place and all of my life is found in you.” This is so moving to me because it shows that no matter how much you have messed up, God is always going to be there for me.
On another note… My CB comes home in 19 days! It’s been a huge change not having her here these past 5 months. I have missed being able to talk to her whenever I wanted to. She’ll be here for a few weeks and then has to go back to Germany. But at least she’ll be here for a little while. It will be good to be able to catch up in person and to be able to get big CB hugs!
I can say that I have almost successfully finished my first semester of college. I take finals next week so hopefully those will go well. I have really only had one minor mishap with philosophy so I decided to drop the course, which is probably better for me in the long run.
