We had a successful shopping trip!! We really had so much fun last night. I got a few things, including a tee shirt that Josh said I had to have... It is cute, it's a Mountain Dew tee shirt. :) I got a new pair of jeans as well. I was only disappointed about one thing. We have an Abercrombie Outlet here and I was sooooo looking forward to going there. It's always the first store I want to go to. Well, we ate at the Taco Bell in the mall and then headed straight for Abercrombie and it was CLOSED! I always find great deals there and I was very disappointed. Oh well, I found some other good things. I'm going to try and look on the Mall of America's website and see if they have anything about it. Maybe they are remodeling of moving or something.

I read Psalm 30 this morning. What a beautiful Psalm. "I will exalt you, O Lord, for you lifted my out of the depths. O Lord my God, I called to you for help and you healed me."

Today is going to be a great day! Why you ask???? Well because tonight my husband is taking me shopping. Yes, you all heard right!!!! I get to go shopping with my favorite person on earth. :) For some reason I really love going shopping with him. Since I love the mall, I think it's just the combination of the man I love and the mall. Now....I did NOT compare the love of my husband to a mall, but I do enjoy shopping. I know some of you are thinking...I hate shopping with my husband because he is impatient and doesn't give me an honest opinion, he just tells me what I want to hear so he can go home. Josh tells me what he likes and doesn't like and I love that. Yes, he does get impatient...but he knows I like shopping so he tries and makes it enjoyable for me. And since he is trying, that makes me happy. :)

My First Post

I changed my blog address, yes I know you are all annoyed since now you have to change it in your favorites. Cause I know I'm in all of your favorites! :) It was just something I needed to do.

Josh has a makeup game today against North Central. It was cancelled a couple of weeks ago due to lightening. I'm not going because I can't miss work. Other than that we really don't have much going on today.

A continuation from my post from last blog. If you all remember I have been very reflective...so here is something I am "chewing" on today. I am going through the Green Letters again.

The Proper Attitude of Man under Grace:
"To believe, and to consent to be loved WHILE UNWORTHY,is the great secret."
"To refuse to make 'resolutions' and 'vows'; for that is to trust in the flesh"
"To expect to be blessed, though realizing more and more lack or worth..."
"To rely on God's chastening (child training) hand as a mark of His kindness"

Things which gracious souls discover:
"To 'hope to be better' (hence acceptable) is to fail to see yourself in CHRIST ONLY."
"To be disappointed with yourself, is to have believed in yourself"
"To be discouraged is unbelief - as to God's purpose and plan for blessing for you"
"To be proud , is to be blind! For we have no standing before God, in ourselves."
"The lack of divine blessing, therefore, comes from unbelief, and not from failure of devotion..."
"To preach devotion first, and blessing second is to reverse God's order, and preach law NOT GRACE. Grace confers undeserved, unconditional blessing; our devotion may follow, but does not always do so - in proper measure."

Heavy thoughts, I know. I enjoy writing these things out because it brings it back to memory for me, and hopefully at the same time gives you some encouragement as well. :)
