The Swine flu is finally out of our house. Cross my fingers and pray really, really hard, it will stay that way! Jake and I came down with it last Tuesday and by Thursday my Dad was showing symptoms. I'm thinking we got it when we went up to pheniox the weekend before for a Make a Wish train ride. Once we got up there we realized that it wasn't just make a wish families but about five different organizations were represented there. But we had a lovely train ride with our closest 500 friends! It's was all of our first time riding on a train. Jake and I were running all over. Really it was Jake who was running all over and I was sent to chase after him. Which was really the cause because he can bob and weave in and out of people!
Today has been kinda lazy. I should be doing homework but instead I'm blogging. A while ago I tried my hand at making an iced pepermint mocha. It kinda flopped! But now I see this will be a trial and error sort of an endevor.
While being sick I got out of having my morning talks with God and it's hard to get back into it. I love this verse.
Psalm 5:3 In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait in expectation.
I take such comfort in knowing that God is sitting there waiting to listen to me and respond in love. So why exactly is it this difficult to get back into it?
Hebrews 4:14-16 14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens,Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
