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.

All quickly ends. How soon we go...

Today marks the end of 2007. This year went very differently than I had "planned". Obviously, that was the Plan all along. Yesterday morning in church, we sang Psalm 90C. I think everyone was wrapped up in the powerful words of the Psalm, along with the added bonus of the amazing harmonies and the building acoustics. It holds particular meaning at the closing of a year, when we all think over what God has done and is doing and will do. I can't really say anything in comparison to those perfect words, so maybe I'll just write out part of the Psalm.

1 Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling place
Through all the ages of our race.
2 Before the mountains had their birth,
Or ever Thou hadst formed the earth,
From years which no beginning had
To years unending, Thou art God.

10 For some life's years are seventy;
Perhaps the strong may eighty see;
Their best involved but toil and woe;
All quickly ends. How soon we go!
11 Who has Thine anger understood?
Who fears Thy fury as he should?

12 O teach Thou us to count our days
And set our hearts on wisdom's ways.
13 How long, O LORD? Return! Repent,
And toward Thy servants now relent.
14 Each morning fill us with Thy grace;
We'll sing for joy through all our days.

17 On us let there be shed abroad
The beauty of the LORD our God.
Our handiwork upon us be
Established evermore by Thee.
Yes, let our handiwork now be
Established evermore by Thee.

Amen and amen.

Tomorrow we're celebrating New Years at Sorrento beach with several other RPs, as we did last year. I'm looking forward to it, even in the predicted heat. We'll get our Christmas presents that our brothers sent with Abby Elder, so that is also exciting.

Happy New Year! May God bless you in 2008.
