I'm going away for a week or two

Hey everyone. I'm going away for a couple of weeks. I'll be in the mountains, enjoying God and ministering to Jr. High and High School kids at Camp Salvation.

I hope your summers are all going fine. I may share about camp when I get home if I feel like it. If you call me this weekend, I'll be able to talk on Saturday!

hanging with the monkey's

I bet you guys are all wondering where I am. Well, I'm still alive, and here. I've been working alot, and also writing alot of letters. More and more I dislike technology and spend only a few moments on the internet.

So basically, I'm just hanging out. Nothing exciting, nothing amazing. But all good.

Because my Savior is still my friend and the sunsets have been amazing.
So has the sunshine, and the green outside. I'm thinking, maybe I'll start swimming for exercise. Because I'm always so hot and tired after mowing all day. Maybe some cool water would feel good. Maybe I will go for a walk now. Or maybe I'll read Esther. It's the greatest.

Oh, and Camp Salvation is coming up in a couple of weeks. I LOVE camp! It's like the highlight of my summer!

You guys should write to me. yeshuasisters20@gmail.com I want to hear from you!

Random Saturday

Ready for some random facts? Yess??!!! OK!

• I got a job. YEAH. And praise the Lord, He has granted me favor with my boss, as well as given me a job I just plain enjoy. I'm mowing all day long in the sunshine. My freckles came back.
• My family went to a movie together last night. My WHOLE family! At least, all of us that live here at home. It was AwEsOmE. The movie was UP and it was a great one. You should go see it. It will make you cry. Well, if you cry as easily as I do it will.
• I love sleeping in on Saturdays.
• It is cloudy and a little rainy here today. I love that too.
• I have a pair of Justin cowboy boots and a periwinkle Troxel helmet. Now if only I had a horse...
• I love receiving and sending handwritten letters. my email is yeshuasisters20@gmail.com and if you email me I'll send you my address so we can write to each other!
• My red roses are blooming.
• I love peaches.

Entrusted With

Hey there beautiful readers! I have a blog to share with you. I added it to my blog list, but this one is so encouraging that I think it deserves a post of it's own. It's called "Entrusted With" and it's this lady sharing her thoughts on real life gospel sharing! It's so encouraging to me because she means it, and she is a normal every day person in our own culture who has the courage to speak about Jesus--not a missionary far away. (although they encourage me too)!

And read about what it looks like for Jenny to go and make Jesus-disciples. I'm praying that her faith will strengthen yours, and more of us will be sharing the truth that saved us with our neighbors who are dying!

My first rosebud is opening!

How I love a do-nothing Saturday. I've been so cynical lately, annoyed with my self and with others, annoyed with the world and humanity, annoyed with failure, annoyed that I am not God. But there is something about a do-nothing Saturday that is healing, I think. Maybe some of the cynicism will wash away. Maybe Someone can change my attitude.

So this is a good do-nothing day. I did nothing while I weeded the garden, and I did nothing while I checked on my herbs, just to see that they are looking healthy. I did nothing visiting Grandpa, too, and walking to the post office for the mail. Nothing while I hung freshly washed sheets and towels on the line, and nothing as I helped rescue a soaked cat from the swimming pool. I love doing nothing as the warm sun touches my skin, nothing as I caress the first of my red roses opening. Nothing as I ate ice cream, and drank limeade. Nothing at all.

I love a do-nothing Saturday. Maybe I will finish that amazing story I got partway through when I had to quit reading last night because I was so tired. It was about David, when Absolom tried to take the kingdom, and right before I stopped reading, there he was, climbing the Mount of Olives, barefoot and with his head covered, and weeping. Weeping and weeping, the King and the people with him. I should find out what happens to him. Hmm...I think it was in 1 Samuel...

And whoever reads this book outloud...
