About Me

My life is not my own, for I belong to Christ.

It is because of God's grace and for His glory that I "live and move and have my being."

I am currently back in Indiana, studying English Education at Purdue University, far from the home I've come to know and love in Victoria, Australia

My family means the world to me.

Living in America and loving in Australia, I am blessed indeed. Complete Profile

      Real Life

      I have eaten 6 meals in the past 2 days. That is more than I ate on all the other days of the week combined. I missed my appetite.

      As I dried the dishes tonight, Benji washed and listened to Adventures in Odyssey on his mp3 player (his pride and joy!!). He would randomly say lines from the episodes he was listening to. I was amused.

      Tomorrow I teach Sunday school. I'm thinking some preparation is in order.

      But first, I'd like to use my blog for the overrated purpose of posting some not-so-overrated quotes:

      "Though the fig tree may not blossom,
      Nor fruit be on the vines;
      Though the labor of the olive may fail,
      And the fields yield no food;
      Though the flock may be cut off from the fold,
      And there be no herd in the stalls--
      Yet I will rejoice in the Lord
      I will joy in the God of my salvation.
      The LORD God is my strength;
      He will make my feet like a deer's feet,
      And He will make me walk on my high hills."
      --Habakkuk 3:17-19

      "For all people walk
      Each in the name of his own god,
      But we will walk
      In the name of the LORD our God
      Forever and ever."
      --Micah 4:5

      "Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and
      your life is hidden with Christ in God."
      --Colossians 3:2

      "Waiting is...
      Steadfastness, that is holding on;
      patience, that is holding back;
      expectancy, that is holding the face up;
      obedience, that is holding one's self in readiness to go or do;
      listening, that is holding so quiet and so still as to hear."
      --S.D. Gordon
