Yeah so I don't have a whole lot to say about one weekend, except that it was amazingly fun and I learned a whole lot in our group sessions. It was also great to get the "it" award, even though I wasn't expecting that one at all. Let it shine was fun as always...I had a foam pit fight with Christian and got it all stuck up in my hair and in my eyes. I also may have pulled a muscle or two doing the high rings (or whatever those things are called). But it was all worth it. Yesterday I sat at home and watched the second half of the first season of the show "Lost" that comes on abc. If you haven't seen Lost before, you should go rent the first season on DVD. It is a great show b/c of all the twists that the director throws in there. Just when you think you have it figured out, something new is thrown into the mix. It's completely unpredictable and a great show. But anyhow...

God has been teaching me so many things through His word lately. I want to encourage everyone to get into His word, b/c I know that many of us don't get into it at all on our own free time. But ask God to give you a thirst for His word instead. Not because you have to read it to be a good christian, but because you have a DESIRE to get to know your savior better.

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. (Matthew 7:7-8)
