last night i was woken up by a text from my roommate 
telling me to get on my computer because andrew was online
and had asked her to wake me up. 
so i woke up at 1:30 am (afternoon for him) and we got to 
skype for an hourwhat a delight. i feel so lucky 
and blessed to be able to talk to him. 

they are off to thailand next.
follow their journey here.



i ran across this hilarious video made for mission of hope
(the place i lived in haiti for two months).
i love seeing all my kids and laughing at this hilarious 
video idea. i hope you enjoy it as much as i did. 

   


it seems that everyone in my home country is celebrating spring 
weather while i am stuck gazing out the window wishing
i could bust out the sandals and shorts. 

will the day ever come?

in other news, we are seeing this tonight. 
and listening to this non-stop.


just laying on my living room floor in front of our giant 
windows soaking up the sun. 

the weather has been great here!
not as great as home, obviously, but warm enough not to wear a 
big puffy coat! 

the snow is melting!
there is hope for a warm and sunny future. 




"Consider how the lilies grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet, I tell you 
not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these." 
Luke 12:27

i realize there has been a major lack of posting on my part in the past few weeks. 
life has just been a whirlwind. 

i have had a lot of reading to do and i even took a midterm today...
but mostly i have been busy because my favorite guy, andrew,
 left for asia yesterday.
(...wow, was it really only yesterday? i feel like it has 
been a year and i want him to come back home)
so in the past few weeks we have been hanging out as much as possible. 

even though i miss all the asia team i know this is an opportunity for me 
to grow and really seek God for comfort in my time of loneliness. 

current information:
i have been sick with a nasty cold for a couple of days which is never fun. 
we completed a hilarious english project video that
 i cannot wait to show everyone. 
i am so excited for the season finale next week of the bachelor. 
and i have to write an entire paper tomorrow. 

so here's to keeping myself busy and to spending more time 
in prayer this next month. 
april 7th could not come faster. 


This is my prayer in the desert
When all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in my hunger and need
My God is the God who provides

This is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved
Of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flame

This is my prayer in the battle
When triumph is still on its way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand

All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship

This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've received I will sow
