Hanging out at the aiport

So, the bad news is that my flight is delayed and I'm stuck at the airport. The good news is that I'm connecting to a signal somewhere and I can get online! Apparently there is some kind of bad weather in Baltimore right now, and we have to go through there to get to New York. From which we will drive to Vermont. I think I'm going to be getting to bed late tonight...

Anyways. I'm excited about seeing the tree colors in Vermont. I hope we are able to do some hiking on Sabbath. I love the sunshine in Florida, but I do miss hiking in the mountains. Hopefully I'll get to do a little of that this weekend!

Walking along

Today was a blah day. Work was boring and seemed to take too long. And then I finally moved the rest of my things out of the apartment. That was tiring and my back hurts. But I'm glad it is done. Also, sometimes I really confuse myself. There is something I have really believed in for a long time now that I just don't understand. It really doesn't make sense right now. I can't seem to shut the door, but every time I try to walk through it, I end up outside again. I don't know why it's so complicated. But I guess that's where faith comes in. If life had only open and closed doors, we wouldn't have to rely on God to lead us. We would easily know where to go. I just hope that I'm doing everything I can to truly hear his leading.

Congratulations Nikki and Mike

And make sure to look nice and innocent by the time our mom's get home!

Thoughts

Recently I've been thinking about what it means to say that I am a Christian. I was raised knowing why I believed that Sabbath was the day God blessed and that the dead in Christ will rise when He comes again, ect. And while I still believe these things, lately I've been feeling more conviction of the things that I hold in common with many other Christians. Being a Christian means that you are a follower of Christ. That you have accepted Him as your Savior and seek Him in your life. And you want to spend forever with Him in Heaven. And while I think it is important to seek truth and read the Bible, I think it is so much more important to seek Jesus. One of my closest spiritual friends is not an Adventist. But I know she loves God so much and is truly a follower of Him. And because of that, I don't feel the need to tell her about the verses I know about that show the differences in our religion. If she asks, I'm happy to. But I trust that God will convict her of what He sees fit. And for us, we have so many great spiritual discissions about God and how He leads in our lives, that it usually doesn't feel necessary to talk about the things we see differently.

Anyways. I don't want to come across like I'm doubting our beliefs or anything. I believe in our message. But I do think it is important to focus on the big picture more than the little things. And how I see it, the big picture is all about Him.
