Reasons for me to praise God

1. I have a place to live with wonderful, Godly roommates
2. I can afford my rent right now.
3. I have a car that more than adequately gets me where I need to go.
4. I have a job and the opportunity to impact at least one person everyday at that job.
5. I can go to a church and experience corporate worship without fear of persecution.
6. I can name enough people to fill up all ten fingers that care about me deeply.
7. There was food in my house to fix for lunch tomorrow and in my tummy to fill me up right now.
8. I've had medicine to take to help me get through my cold.
9. I'm in a relationship with someone that loves God more than me and me more than I can comprehend.
10. I may have to wear glasses but at least I can afford to buy them so I can see.
11. I may feel stressed about upcoming events but that means I have something worth working towards and fighting for.
12. I get to hold God' most precious miracle in my hands everyday...a baby.
13. family...many of them

There are so many more but I'm tired...another reason to praise God, that he gave us the ability to recharge and serve him another day.

Going to Rent

Friday night I saw Rent for the I think 9th time. I went with a group of girls, two of which are the same girls that I saw it with 10 YEARS AGO the first time we all saw it. This will be the last tour and it was extra special because the actors who played Mark and Roger originally on Broadway were back again.

After the show, you could donate $1000 to Broadway Cares (an organization that provides supplies and aid to people suffering from AIDS and HIV. When you made that size donation, you were allowed on stage to meet the cast, have your picture taken, get autographs etc etc. I can't tell you that a couple of us didn't wonder if we could pool together the money. Eventually sanity sank in and it never happened.

Hunt Brother Birthing Days

Yesterday was the first celebration for Payton and Logan's birthdays. The Hunt side of the family (Moose's side) celebrated together and the beginning of the video is what I forsee to be many attempts at getting all the cousins together to take photographs. Poor Mylie will have to hold her own amongst all those boys.

Then the second part of the video is Payton and Logan enjoying their cupcakes. I think my favorite part is Logan pointing at the frosting on his mouth saying "oh no!" It was good times.

Liz's wedding

I went to my friend, Liz's wedding on Saturday. It's the first of 3 weddings in 3 months. Whew!

There will be a video of the wedding shortly to follow so stay tuned.

I walked out of my first movie

Yesterday Mike and I were in the mood for a thriller. We haven't seen a scary movie in a while and we thought that it might be fun to have some things pop out at us on the screen. We decided to see Last House on the Left (or as I affectionately called it: Last Door on the Right).
While we were waiting for the show to begin Mike looked up a synopsis on his iphone (which if we had done that beforehand, we could have saved $15) and told me that it seemed like our movie was more of a slasher type rather than play with your mind type. I started to prepare for more of a Friday the 13th type movie.
I WAS SO WRONG. It more of a serial killer, let me watch inappropriate things happen to teenage girls type movie. Mike and I looked at each other and said "I don't think so." We jumped the bar in front of us and left.
What bothered me the most was the number of people in the crowd (packed house) who didn't leave and especially the number of teenagers. I couldn't believe that anyone could watch that happen to a girl and be okay staying there.

My personal recommendation, if you want a horror film, DO NOT see Last House on the Left.

Linking church to personal bible reading

On Sunday, Brad emphasized the importance of confessing sin to one another so that it doesn't create a stronghold in your life like sin has a tendency to do when it remains unconfessed. I felt convicted that it was important for me to do that. Then tonight I was reading Psalm 32 from the Message Bible (because all the others are in my car) and here's what it started with:
Starting with verse 2
Count yourself lucky-
God holds nothing against you
and you're holding nothing back from him.

When I kept it all inside
my bones turned to powder,
my words became daylong groans

The pressure never let up
(now for the cream of the passage)
all the juices of my life dried up.

The idea that sin bottled up could literally suck the life out me was another fantastic reminder of how important it is to confess the sin that we know God has already forgiven. I can't wait to start posting little tidbits like these on One Tuesday Night (our bible study's new blog).

I am also posting a little video of Jackson last night. I had the chance to hang out with him a bit before Bible study. I love the little guy.
