It is October tomorrow already! I love this time of year, seeing the leaves change in color, feeling the cool breeze on your face. Being able to enjoy God's creation in all four seasons is one of my favorite things to do. There are always surprises as the weather changes that make you stop and stand in awe of the majesty of our Lord. As the weather changes, the months fly by, and before you know it Thanksgiving has come and gone and we begin to prepare for the day we have all set a side to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior. This year will be different I feel, simply because of all the blessings God has bestowed on me already. The pastors we have had at church, FRC of Grand Rapids, or should I say the sermons we have heard from God through these gifted men haave drawn me closer to God and helped me in appreciating what He has done for me. I can't wait till the next Lord's day and feel discouraged when I have to work knowing I will be missing out. But where I work I have felt blessed as well seeing as there are a few elderly women/ residents who are devout Christians and being able to fellowship with them on Sunday is also a blessing.
I hope to join Ian on a trip to his home town this December... Scotland! A little nerve wracking as I will be finally meeting his family after a year of dating him, but yet I also am very excited to see him in his own environment with his family and friends. So maybe in January I will have some pictures to post of my trip to the wonderful highlands of Scotland.
