easter happiness

hello, dear friends! i hope you're having a lovely Easter! we had a sunrise service/ breakfast that was a wonderful way to begin the day that celebrates that He is risen!

and on this day, i thought i'd share some things that made me laugh as i was reading some blogs...

check out this cake wreck -- the caption from the website says: "Here we have the inspiring tale of The Chick Who Took Down Four Bunny Bullies" if you want to see more lovely wreckiness, go visit the cake wrecks blog....it's fantastic :)

and now, if you click here: baby chickens!! , you'll see some really, really cute chicks....with some stinkin' awesome names. i laughed for a long time. i'm still laughing :)

and i saw this tree while walking the other day. it's a little difficult to see, but it made me really happy. i hope it makes the person who decorated it just as happy.


and because it is Easter, here is one of my favorite songs:

I hear the Savior say, Thy strength indeed is small
Child of weakness, watch and pray, Find in Me thine all in all.

Lord, now indeed I find Thy power and Thine alone,
Can change the leper's spots and melt the heart of stone.

Jesus paid it all

All to Him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain
He washed it white as snow!

And when before the throne I stand in Him complete,
"Jesus died my soul to save" my lips shall still repeat

O Praise the One who paid my debt
And raised this life up from the dead



i do love that song :)

i hope you have a wonderful Easter, my loves!

His Straight, Not Mine

Whenever I have a huge decision to make, I stress. My default mode is "what if I'm wrong??" This has been true for the last 10+ years of my life. College, mission trips during college, where to teach after college, quitting teaching, moving to Baltimore, leaving Baltimore, beginning seminary. All decisions fraught with questions, doubts, fears. And I'm there again. Graduated from seminary, looking for the next step. Wondering. Doubting. Questioning. Hoping. Dreaming. Fearing.  Every big decision is the same. You'd think I'd have learned by now just to decide or jump or trust or whatever. But no. The reason for this struggle is that I so badly long to do what I am meant to do. I long to follow God where He is leading, to fulfill the purpose He has planned for me from the beginning. But I'm only human. And so how on earth do I know what God has planned for me? And how on earth can I possibly do that without screwing it up completely?  I look at vers...

my feet

are killing me. because i decided to wear heels on a field trip to atlanta because i didn't want to be too casual at the state capitol. haha :) we had fun, no matter whether our feet got tired or not. i love those kind of experiences because they're different and unique and fun. we were worn out when we got home, but it was a good day. we started at the cnn center. i'd never done that tour before, but it was interesting. i still have trouble thinking that all that news is done right in atlanta...it's kind of amazing. i always see those anchors on the news and it seems as though they are in some far away place, but no. they're here in atlanta. i learned that the floor of the food court is also a map of the world. the tiles are laid out in the shape of continents. a plus of going to the cnn center for a field trip? starbucks in the middle of the school day :) after the cnn center, we headed to the state capitol. it's been awhile since i'd been there, but it wa...
