Day 1 of vacation

I am off for the rest of the week. Today was laundry/pay my bills/clean out all the junk in my room day. I am glad it snowed today. It definitly made doing all my errands at home easier. I also worked on my not-so-good-right now article for The Beacon(Pentecostal newsletter). Its almost done Leema.

But the highlight of the day was talking to my dear friend Meredith in Germany for 2 and half glorious hours. We had to get off because she had to go make dinner for her fabulous husband Detlev(we need more Detlevs in this world). Bah humbug to the time difference. But I praise God for the invention of the telephone and phone cards. I think we covered most of my favorite topics like church, family, theology, food, vacation spots and my frustrations on the topic of women in church. Above all, I was encouraged, loved, rebuked(with love) and challenged. Thank you Meredith for repeatedly reminding me of what it means to live a Gospel-saturated life. I still have 8 hours left on my card!!
