Whew...

Yikes,
Life since the last post has been super busy and crazy, yet it has been wonderfully fun.
School work has picked up quite a bit. Projects, tests, homework assignments, tons of readings, study guides, and you name it has been on my to do list the last two weeks.
In the craziness, I of course make time for fun and relaxation, you know to stay sane. So, here is what my last two weekends have looked like.
1st Weekend was absolutely amazing and CHEAP! (the best two combinations)
Thursday night we (the girls in the quad and game night attenders ; )) went bowling across the street for only a couple dollars. Friday after classes we had the wonderful privilege to go swing dancing all for quite a long time, at Fountain Square FOR FREE ;). I love swing dancing, almost more than line dancing...I know sacrilegious right. Saturday I went and had an eye glasses appointment and the that night I won tickets to a Blake Shelton concert at the Murat downtown Indy. I took my roommate and we got all dressed up and had an absolute blast. To top off the night we made a stop at Starbucks for a fantastic drink and muffin... awe Starbucks. Sunday we all went to the Vineyard again and loved that. Later in the afternoon the girls and I took a little visit to June's house. She is the cute, little, older, British lady that swipes our card to get into the cafeteria. We were there from about 5pm to 10pm and she still didn't want us to leave. We talked, played games, and ate her home cooking. It was wonderful.

Weekend #2
I had a concert on Friday night that all of my girls, my grandma, and Matt came to. Thanks guys : ) They Genevieve and I drove home to spend the weekend at my house with my wonderfully amazing and crazy busy family. It was a good time and it was very very nice to see all of my family and hang out with them.
I will be home again for Easter, right after spring break which is March 8-the 15.

God has been very good and showing himself faithful every day. As I continue to trust him and learn more about myself, I am lost in his Majesty.
Keep Seeking Him
Chris

The Word

This week I am just going to update with some verses that have been meaningful to me in my readings this past week also with some quotes from Oswald Chambers' book "My Utmost for His Highest” Short but sweet

"For You, O God, have tested us; You have refined us as silver is refined...we went through fire and through water; but you brought us out to rich fulfillment." Psalms 66:10-12b

"Who dares accuse us whom God has chosen for his own? Will God? NO! He is the one who has given us right standing with himself. Who then will condemn us? Will Christ Jesus? No, for he is the one who died for us and was raised to life for us and is sitting at the place of highest honor next to God, pleading for us. Can anything ever separate us from Christ's love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if e have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or are hungry or cold or in danger or threatened with death...NO, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loves us. All I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from his love. Death can't, life can't. The angles can't, and the demons can't. Our fears for today, our worries about tomorrow, and even the powers of hell can't keep God's love away. Whether we are high above the sky or in the deepest ocean, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:31-39

Be encouraged and blessed
