9 Days!! 9 Days To Go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

9 Days and Counting until I depart on a new little adventure to visit my dear friend Rebecca in Fairbanks, Alaska!

So I've been doing a lot of internet research, reading of blogs and reading newspapers from different Alaskan cities just to familiarize myself with the culture of which I am about to find myself in!

I cannot wait! I know it will be an especially sweet time between me and the Lord. I always have such sweet fellowship with Him when I experience new things, go to new places, walk in His creation, take in new sites of His wonderful and beautiful creation - every new thing seems to always point me back to Him!

I'm still amazed at how this trip came together! A dream trip - once in a lifetime it seems and yet the Lord, in His goodness has made this possible for me.

So, I'm not sure what I'll see, what I'll experience or who I'll meet (there's talk that Sarah Palin is expected to be at the very same festival I am to attend!!!)

But I know for sure, that the Lord is good, His love is incomprehensible and I cannot wait to see what His very hand created in the wonderful land of the midnight sun!





The images above are from this blog that I came across. Very interesting and it's hard for me to imagine a place that one could drive 244 miles before coming across developed land. **Sigh** I SOOO cannot wait to go!

Who Am I??


I woke up this morning with the fact that, I am blessed beyond measure, weighing greatly on my mind.

2 Samuel 7:18

18 Then King David went in and sat before the LORD, and he said:
"Who am I, O Sovereign LORD, and what is my family, that you have brought me
this far?

So many times, even several times in one day, the Lord reveals something new to me, or romances me with an amazing sight, or sends encouragement in the most unexpected ways just to say, "I love you."

I hope to expand more on this soon, when I have a little more time this weekend. But I just couldn't wait to share, and I feel I am bursting at the seams with God's amazing grace in my own life.

Who am I, O Sovereign Lord, that you have brought me this far????

^^The picture above was the view I enjoyed in starting my drive home from Michigan. I took it as a personal promise from the Lord for safe passage home - and He delivered. : )
