Yes...I am still alive!

I feel bad for not updating in a while. Sometimes I forget that I have this blog. I have things that I would like to share, but don't find time to squeeze this in my schedule. I am going to make it an extra effort to update more often.

I had such a wonderful Christmas this year! It was refreshing to see all my loved ones again after 5 months or so. I got to see a great majority of the people that I wanted to see and hang out with. It's funny how you don't seem to realize how much certain people mean to you until you are gone away from them for an extended amount of time. That's the same with God. You can't comprehend how much you truly, madly, deeply need Him and miss Him until you spend a certain amount of time apart from His presence.

This weekend was good and relaxing! On Friday night, a couple of my co-workers and myself finally found what we had been looking for for the past several months...a tasty Mexican restaurant!!! I left the place with a huge smile on my face and feeling content. Then on Saturday, I had a lunch reunion with some Taiwanese peeps who were exchange students at Murray State. After lunch, I went to a bible study at my church and then we had a gathering afterwards.

In our bible study, we're going over Exodus and are presently studying the 10 commandments. On Saturday, we went over the "Do not murder" commandment. Matt, our pastor, brought up about good anger, which I talked about in one of my first posts on this site. So, that was good....talking about how we should be upset when there is injustice and if others are being mistreated.

Well, I just wanted to give a brief update and be on the lookout for more posts coming up more frequently!

Peace out and may you feel God's blessings!

Natalie,

I'm so glad you are still alive...And so is your mother.

She can't wait for your visit.

We told her to take lots of pictures.

Have a great week.
