Test day...not an average day...

Today was one of those days, I knew I needed to get myself up and moving at a certain time.  Every morning I need my time with Lord...so important and I need breakfast, which usually consist of a bowl of fresh fruit.  Today my breakfast was strawberries,mango,papaya, and banana, with chocolate chips on top.

Maybe you know this and maybe you don't but I love chocolate...especially semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips.  However, a couple weeks ago, I got sick, and the thought of chocolate was not even an option, but as I got better I still couldn't eat a handful of chocolate chips as I did before...a sure problem something is still not right:)  However I have this huge bag of chocolate chips in my freezer and I need to eat them, so I have to put them in things, hence why I put them on my fruit salad.  If you haven't tried it you should.  A fruit salad for breakfast with greek yogurt, chocolate chips and a dap of honey is also really good.  Now onto my story...

I had to get up and moving because I had an exam today...a Spanish exam over Subjunctive rules #7 and #8 of which I didn't feel prepared for.  You see, usually I don't have to study much because the time in class is enough and then I try to use it out side of the classroom, but these rules...not so much..for some reason they were much harder for me to grasp.  I spent about an hour reviewing and making sentences and then headed to school.  Once I got to school, I was prepared to study a little bit more...like that ever happened...the social bug I am, just couldn't stop socialising.  Imagine that.

Finally it was time to go to class.  We received our test and I realized that rule #7 was not on it.  Our teacher forgot...I was saved by this mistake.   Our written exam was only regla #8!   However...regla #7 was in our oral exam.  But over all, I think it went well.  I wasn't stressed, I did my best, and now it's time for a long weekend and to do some exploring and some resting.  Next week will be busy..but wait which week isn't...

Until next time!

Always in HIS hands!!

The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does.   The Lord upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.  The eyes of all look to you, and you give them their food at the proper time.   You open your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing.   The Lord is righteous in all his ways and faithful in all he does.  The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.   He fulfils the desires o those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them. Psalm 145:13b-19 I don't know about you, but I find great joy in reading the scriptures.  Over the past couple weeks I have really enjoyed the Psalms, the fact that there is so much depth to them and that many of them have spoken right to my heart.  The verses above, I read today.  I was sitting in El Bosque Parque reading and just soaking up all that the Lord has done in my life.   I am reminded that the Lord is faithful in all he does, and that His prom

His Love Will Never Fail!

Enjoying a girls afternoon! Dear Friends, One year ago, this month, I left the states to be a missionary, a desire the Lord put in my heart a long time ago.  I left for Colombia, South America and a short time later, I moved to Costa Rica to study Spanish.  Living in Costa Rica is amazing.  From the sunny days and cool evenings to the people I meet and have the opportunity to pray with and share Christ with, I couldn't ask for anything better. And I am thankful to stay for a little while longer.  You read that correctly.   I have been given the opportunity to continue to study Spanish (which I am so thankful for), build relationships and live life here sharing the Gospel until... the LORD knows!  Flexibility is the key...   Proverbs 19:21 says,  "Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails."   The  LORD  is directing my steps a little differently than I expected and  there are no complaints here, because HE knows bes

Fun in February

Image
Sometimes there is so much going on, I think there is no way I can do this at this time, but when I stop and notice there is time, it's always fun to be spontaneous and surprise the people you love most, family.  After 12hrs on the road, I finally showed up on the doorstep of my sister's house.  With the door open, jaws dropped, and laughter, I believe my surprise was successful!   Aunt Mimi with Grace, Nathan and Emily!  Other fun news for February...I finished my Bible Classes and ordered my one way ticket to Colombia!!   As I prepare to leave, I am continually reminded how the Lord goes before me, how He is my provider, how much He loves me.  He is the reason I do what I do and love what I do, and in all I do I want to honor Him.  Be Thou my Vision   Be Thou my vision,  O Lord of my heart;  Naught be all else to me,  save that Thou art  Thou my best thought,  by day or by night,  Waking or sleeping,  Thy presence my light.  Be Thou my
