Greatness

_MG_7546
Quang Villiage, China 2007


"Greatness comes not when things are always going good for you, but the greatness comes when you are really tested, when you take some knocks, some disappointments, when sadness comes.  Because only if you have been in the deepest valleys can you even know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain."
—Richard Nixon

Wash my eyes to see, Your Majesty





"Word of God speak

Would You pour down like rain
Washing my eyes to see
Your majesty

"To be still and know
That You're in this place
Please let me stay and rest
In Your holiness"

When Words Don't Speak



Sometimes it was overwhelming . . . people were talking, but  I could not understand them. I would go to say something, but once again . . . they could not understand me either. Yet, there was a connection . . . The same God hears it all! There is NO language Where HE cannot be heard! THAT is just COOL!

Nicole and I just got back from a trip to Mexico. It was a great time! Helping Yolanda prepare for her wedding (what little we could without knowing spanish). Living in a mexican home for a week. The wedding. Seeing a few old friends and meeting several new ones! Its amazing how you can become friends without being able to really talk to each other. Well, here are some random images from the trip . . .

Camera's, Coffee Shops, and Cool People!

_MG_1929ed2

Do you ever have those times when you just sit back and see what cool things that God has done? Where you see Him take a little dream and bring it to reality? Last weekend was one of those times. Reflecting on it all, I realize that I really didn't take any pictures to truly capture the moments and the memories (oops!) . . . Guess I was too busy just soaking it all in.

It is hard to believe that it has already been a week since PWP Lite-Milwaukee. The most amazing group of students, and an incredible team of people to work with and an Awesome God to pull it all together!

hang'n with the sistas




Went to Iowa, had fun, came home . . .
               
                               . . . now its time to get sleep

Nothing quite like hanging out with "family."
 . . . and laughing, really hard.
 . . . and talking till the talker runs out
 . . . and shopping until we all found something cute
 . . . and just hang'n round
 . . . and staying up WAY TOO LATE.
 . . . and really, just having FUN!! LOTS of it!

Payne's, Thanks for letting us hang out with you this weekend
You guys are the coolest!
