AMAZED

I have to say that I probably will not get any sleep tonight! I am so excited about moving into the new building! Who would have ever thought that I'd be so excited about church??? (By the way my anniversary is Feb. 13. No I don't have a mysterious boyfriend, however that would be nice too ;-). This is the anniversary of my relationship beginning with Jesus Christ! And some other unfortunate events as well...but definitely the best day of my life! ) I went to New Spring last night and I am AMAZED, as Perry said last week. I'm amazed with all that God is doing through us! My brother Lee put it as well as it can be put here. It IS about the people, not a building. I cannot wait to get in there in the morning and worhip my savior like there's no tomorrow!

Knee surgery update: going very well! Plica is all gone. It was rough for the first few days, and going back to work on Thursday after having surgery on Tuesday was a big mistake. But after about 5 days, it was so much better! I'm amazed at how quickly the body can bounce back. I was walking on the treadmill in 5 days! And hopefully I'll be back to running in a week or two. However, after seeing such rapid improvement, I seem to have hit a roadblock. I mean it's getting better, just not as quickly as I'd like. God has really been teaching me a lot about patience!!! Everytime I overdo it, my knee swells up and I have to give it a good rest. Just like in everyday life, when we don't wait on God's timing, we are usually faced with a setback.
Overall outcome: I'd take the surgery over a trip to the dentist anyday, I've gotten to spend more time with God, and He's taught me some important lessons in the meantime!
