SO.....
life is crazy, what other way can I describe it? Through all of the craziness though, God is absolutely amazing. God is restoring a passion in me that He once placed in me and definitely making me just give up my life to Him once again. love it. sometimes it's hard to lay down my own desires, but then He just shows up and.....like the song that I am listening to right now says "He makes everything Glorious!"
One of the things that I have jsut been thinking about and kinda...refueled with in the past week is the importance of social justice and human rights. In some areas I feel like I have put some of that on the back burner of my mind....in some aspects, I don't know how to explain this fully at the moment so I will refrain and save that for another post, eh? haha....i've been around my canadian friend for tooo long!
Anyway, God has been putting a lot of this on my heart.
This past week in our dorm we had an amazing experience that I really want to write about....i will soon i am about to fall asleep............

Lost in wonder...



This past weekend I went with a few friends to the beach
"Puerto Escondido" it is about 9 hrs away from here. I loved it. This is only the second time in my life I have been to the ocean, and it just leaves me an awe. I wish I could describe with words. So many times throughout the weekend I would just stop and stare at these waves..there were many parts where the waves were so huge that the lifeguards wouldnt let people in. It was just an awesome reminder to me of how AWESOME God is...how He is so powerful. These waves could have taken me out in a second, but at the same time God could command these waves to stop..or rise...or to part. How amazing is that? A lot of the time I just forget to be amazed by the HUGENESS of God...how I am so small.
