Waves of Grace

Isn't that beautiful? I love water. It is so relaxing to me. Everything seems more peaceful and under control if I can just sit and look at water for a while...watch the tide come in and out at the beach...wow, makes me want to go to the Oregon Coast.

This is probably a good thing for me to be reflecting on now. It's coming down to the last month of the quarter, and it's gonna be a busy one. I don't know when I will have time to get everything done (and obviously blogging hasn't been top priority lately), but you know what? It always gets done.

Recently I've been learning that God is truly so good to me, and He always gives me the grace to get through it all. Just this weekend, I got to have such a fun time at the Ball and then go be in a HOUSE (a real house) for a home cooked meal on Sunday (with a family - the mom is in Gospel Choir with me - and on Mother's Day, at that!) What a blessing. I know I have a lot on my plate, but I also know that I'm not facing this last month alone.

And, hey, if I get really stressed, I can just head for the water.

Third Times the Charm

So I am just tired of seeing that bowl of top ramen from my last post...why do people eat that stuff? Sure it tastes good, but really...sooo bad for you. So, I'm updating so I can see some new pictures.

Last week I went to Boston, MA, with SPU's Gospel Choir. It was a blast! (The above picture is from Little Italy in the North End. Note the emphasis on the Boston accent.) The first day I was there I had time to sightsee. I've already been to Boston, so I didn't feel the need to cram in every single historic sight, especially since I've seen them once before. My friend Grace and I opted to just go have our own adventure. In the process, we started taking pictures of the number 3 wherever we could find it. The pictures below are some of the coolest 3's I found.
