In two hours, I'm meeting a group of friends to drive to Atlanta, GA for the Passion 2010 conference. And guess what? Just guess. Guess what I haven't done? What detrimental deed to my social acceptence during my stay in Atlanta haven't I done for a 4 day conference???
You prolly guessed it. I haven't packed. All my laundry is done though. So I just need to stuff in all in a bag. :D
I'm looking forward to the time away and for what God will have for our group--together and individually. I imagine I may blog about it for awhile when I get back. :)
I'm sorry I've been such a blogging stranger! I miss you all and miss being more updated on your lives. Now that the holidays are behind us, I hope to have more time.
Anyone with the blogging bug, please sneeze on me!
Another time measurement is tossed in the trash, for a brand new one to hang on the wall. It doesn't have wear marks from hanging for months yet. It doesn't have notes and dates scribbled wildly yet. I hope your 2009 looked like the calendar you tossed in the trash--a little worn and wild, marked from experiences and milestones. Because each of those things mark ground that was covered, lessons learned, character refined, etc. :)
Now we have a whole new year to look forward to. Who will you be at the end of 2010? Where will you have walked? How many would you have reached out to? How many lessons will you learn?
I pray no matter the milestones and wear marks you'll bear, that you will simply mark another year of life to praise God for! That you'll see Him more in everything around you, and have more chances to grow closer to Him.
Happy New Year,
Jen
Aw, Happy New year, Jen girl! I've SO missed our weekly talks since the Holidays, and I'm looking forward to resuming them when you get back. :) Love you, and can't wait to hear about the conference!
ReplyDeletewow thanks for that! needed a pick me up to get me back excited for the rest of 2010 in Belgium! :) still loving your blog! I even introduced my friend to it the other day too! Hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year with family and friends, and hope you have a fantastic time at the conference!! Looking forward to hearing about it! :)
ReplyDeleteI have heard so many wonderful things about Passion from many of my beloved friends and am so glad you were able to partake in it as well! I hope you had a blessed holiday season, my friend!
ReplyDeleteAnd I have to ask...why is "Single" crossed out on your banner up there?? :)
Hi, Jen! Thanks for your stop by my blog. It's always neat to get encouraging comments from other Christians. Perhaps I will start blogging in the near future. For now, I'm still in MX, and have my heart and life very full of other things. :-) Blessings!
