sooooooooooo,  Staff Conference registration starts today! All the staff are pouring in and COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY is gradually filling up! Registration and Coffee House stuff consumed life today but it was good....apparently I have a lead foot as well and made my staff team sick driving around with me today. I think it was more I was in a hurry ( Read more... )

everyone on my team seems to be athletic. Not that I'm not athletic, I just am not as persistent and dilligent in my pursuits for physical health. My team LOVES to take care of their bodies and feeds off the gym. Naturally, I want to be where my team is at and so I follow them...to the gym....to what feels like my end. I am so sore today. I find ( Read more... )

sooo....things are great and just getting better. Today is my first day off and I am loving it! Sooo needed to just sleep in and rome around campus and linger over my food with my coaching group for hours, chatting away. Side note- I love my coaching group. They are some of the most precious girls I have ever known and it is really cool that the ( Read more... )

Other than that, we did Myers-Briggs ( Read more... )

So I just finished "Passion and Purity" by Elisabeth Elliot this morning.  What a fabulous book! I just love that at the end of the day, these two crazy kids, though they completely blew me away with there seemingly "outrageous" attempts (and struggles) at purity,  never ceased to take into account God's best for themselves, for each other, for ( Read more... )

It's a very freeing thing to know that all I have to offer God today and forever is my need

....nothing else in this broken body, just my need.

I love the new book I'm reading, Passion and Purity  by Elisabeth Elliot, wife to Jim Elliot the Christian missionary that was murdered in the jungle because of his efforts to bring Jesus to a lost tribe. I haven't finished it yet but from what I've read so far, I love it. This couple's commitment to follow the Lord and sacrifice their own desires ( Read more... )

5 minutes ago I finished reading the best book about men and women ever! It's suppost to be a heart to heart about men but I really learned more about my own heart than anything else. Every time I opened it's pages, I was blown away by this woman's (Nancy Groom) insight into my life and the way I respond to things and the reasons I do those things ( Read more... )

Bethany Dillon writes my heart so beautifully:)

"The calmer of the sea,
here in this room with me,
so gently welcoming
the weakest things in me."
