Every yearI dread January. January, in my opinion, is the least enjoyable month of the year. So, naturally, when January arrives, my mind quickly strays to February. I count the days till this dreadful month passes, and I put my hope in the near future, which never fails to disappoint me. But this year has been different.
This year, God has challenged me to enjoy the moment I'm living in. And you know what I'm finding? Jesus is here. When I enjoy the moment I'm in, I enjoy life - eternal life. Definition of eternal life- To know the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom He sent. (John 17:3).
So, this January I am not putting my hope in the future. I'm putting it in Jesus. And Jesus always fails to disappoint me. This month I've been to the beach for the first time in the winter. I went sledding down two awesome hills. I drank hot chocolate. And I still need to go ice skating.
Welcome all to my blog. I'm a newbie at blogging and I'm not positive what I should write as my very first blog so I shall write this: I hope you all enjoy reading my blurbs!
I never like writing in about me blurbs because truly I'm still discovering who I am. But I suppose I can tell you what little I've discovered about myself in the short years of my life so far. I am mostly cheerful and optimistic. I am amused and amazed by the simple things in life that get overlooked most of the time. i.e. a pot of water as it transitions to boiling or -my favorite - clouds. Things that make me come alive are music, acting, and dancing. God has currently placed me in Boston as a missionary where I am able to do all three. I work with YWAM Boston where we use creative arts to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ!
