Introduction of Christ

This video was sent to me today and I had never seen it. I really liked and thought I would share. How would you introduce Christ?

Jumper

This weekend I went to the movies with Matt and Kourtney. We saw Jumper. It was ok, not the best movie in the world, but not terrible either. But it did make me think. I won't give away the movie, I think everyone knows that Jumpers can go from location to location just by thinking about where they want to go. If you didn't know that already, sorry:). Anyways, so I was thinking of all the places I want to go! I would love to travel the world and see every bit of God's creation! Below are some pictures of places I would love to visit. There are more but here are some of my top places!

Australia

Fiji

Florence

Greece
Rome

Kenya

Spain

Maybe one day I will be able to visit all these wonderful places!

Love ya!

Blue Like Jazz

Well, I have not been very good about blogging lately. Just a blog here and there. But I am going to try to do a better job. I feel like blogging is such a good way to stay in touch with others and since I hate talking on the phone then I should really do a better job at blogging:) So I just started reading this book that my family has been telling me I should read for the last year or so. It's call Blue Like Jazz. I started it tonight and the very first paragraph struck me, so I thought I would share. I think it is beautiful.........

I once listened to an Indian on television say that God was in the wind and the water, and I wondered at how beautiful that was because it meant you could swim in Him or have Him brush your face with a breeze. I am early in my story, but I believe I will stretch out into eternity, and in heaven I will reflect upon these early days, these days when it seemed God was down a dirt road, walking toward me. Years ago He was swinging speck in the distance; now He is close enough I can hear His singing. Soon I will see the lines on His face.

I love the picture that paragraph paints. I seem to be reminded more and more often to never take for granted the people you have in your life. But I think we also need to remember that everyday is a day we should be growing closer to our Creator. I always think about how I could live in a shack as long as it's on a beach. I used to think that I was being so humble because living in a shack is not materialisitic, but yesterday I started thinking about that scenario. How would I serve God if I just sat on the beach all day? How am I serving Him now? Isn't strange how going through hard times can bring you so close to God, and then when things are running smoothly you slowly drift back into your own selfish ways? I pray that I can grow closer to Him and so that I can "hear His singing, and soon see the lines on His face." I hope you are all doing well, and I love you all so much!
