“But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they…

Today is March 18, 2013. Today brings back memories of this same date in 2006. The last day I saw my sister Katie in person, the last embrace I enjoyed in her arms. The last heart-to-heart conversation we had together. She talked to me about GRACE. She was a nineteen-year-old, and I was twelve. A…

I am so thankful for now.   If I really think about it, there’s no other place I’d rather be than here at Evangel, studying Psychology and Biblical Studies. I feel SO blessed to be a part of Concert Choir. I am privileged to have met many AMAZING individuals thus far, to have developed such…

Here are some snapshots of beautiful Colorado on Evangel Concert Choir’s Spring Tour during the first week of March. Another blog is soon to come about what God did during that AMAZING week.  “When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur, And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze” ~from “How Great Thou Art”

Nineteen Years. Wow. That’s all I’ve got to say! It sure was a WONDERFUL day.  I woke up to some amazing decorations from my Mommy, put up by my sweet suitemates and my roomie! One of the special packages I received for my birthday–what a cute bear. I also received many thoughtful cards, and a…

 I love this. He speaks straight to our hearts so as to give us understanding. “‘I am the LORD,’ he says, ‘and there is no other. I publicly proclaim bold promises. I do not whisper obscurities in some dark corner so no one can understand what I mean. And I did not tell the people…

For the longest time, I’ve been an avid television viewer. On summer days as a child, I would dive for hours into the world of Laura Ingalls Wilder in “Little House on the Prairie.” How I loved to experience life through Laura’s perspective…as she roamed the woods, played in the creek, and swooned over Almanzo–her…

This semester has been wonderful so far…even though I’m in the midst of midterms. Those are a little less than enjoyable. But, after this week, I’ll be headed on Spring Tour with the Concert Choir. I can’t wait for this upcoming time of ministry with such beautiful people, including some new Cuban friends. As I…

Wow. What a love God gives us.
