Tidbits

This semester has been so exciting thus far, and I can't wait to experience everything that is going to happen throughout 2010!

Currently, I am working with a team of college students to promote the college via a college blog, Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and re-doing the entire college website, as well as preparing for online open day. I'm going to be overseeing the Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, and Blog, as well as doing some photography, which, if you know me, you would know I am STOKED about!

Another thing I am really excited about this semester is getting my connect group going. I just started one last Tuesday, and I am so excited to continue and grow it! Connect Group is the same thing as small group, Bible study, etc. I love Connect Groups, because in such a huge church, it is the best way to get people connected and feeling like home. It's a great way to keep a big church small.

Life is so busy right now, but I am enjoying every moment of it. College is great, as is church! I'm learning so much, and growing in God more and more each day.

Also, I was reading this quote tonight, and I thought I would share with you; It really spoke to my heart:

"When you were a child, you might have sat on a small stool and looked at your mother's embroidery. From your point of view, it was a confusion of zigzags, knots, and loose threads. Then your mother, to help you understand, turned the embroidery on the right side so you could see and appreciate the design.

You must stop looking on the wrong side of things...Lift your hearts to heavenly places and look down upon events from that vantage point. You will see life's temporary sufferings as a gathering of pearls and jewels with which we will be adorned in eternity.
"

I love that quote. That is exactly what I needed to hear today. God always knows what we need to keep us going and He sent you with your passinate heart today to lift my heart and my eyes toward Him. I love and appreciate you.
