Wow, What a Weekend!

So 2 of my closest friends were married this weekend - Congrats Andy and Kaycee!!! And I had a blast and am very thankful to have been a part of the wedding. It went off without a hitch and I think I witnessed the most beautiful bride ever, and the happiest groom on earth.

So now it's Monday (and i have to go back to work tomorrow...has it been 6 days already?) and today was also a very busy day. I managed to hunt down my birth certificate so I can get a passport, so I can go to MEXICO!!! WOO HOO! I'm so excited :) I then celebrated with Alicia for her getting into the Nursing program - you go girl!

So through all of this - the wedding this weekend, spending time with friends after the wedding, celebrating with Alicia tonight, and especially Pastor's sermon on Sunday - I think I'm beginning to realize more and more of God's great plan for us. All weekend long I have been saying how thankful I am for my church family. Becoming a Christian not only saved my life, but it has brought me into an extensive family that takes great care of me. I have always said that I wanted to marry into a big family, haha, but now I see that's not entirely necessary, because I already have the largest and best family in the world. To any of you who read this - Thank you for everything you have done for me; I have been truly blessed.

Final thought: I know I said it earlier, but I loved Pastor's sermon on Sunday.

"It was in the year King Uzziah died that I saw the Lord..."

Whoa...He saw the Lord...that alone is huge.

"Then I said, “It’s all over! I am doomed, for I am a sinful man. I have filthy lips, and I live among a people with filthy lips. Yet I have seen the King, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.”

My sentiments exactly...

But then...

"Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal he had taken from the altar with a pair of tongs. He touched my lips with it and said, 'See, this coal has touched your lips. Now your guilt is removed, and your sins are forgiven.'

Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?”

I said, “Here I am. Send me.”

And that just amazes me. Isaiah as shown for what he really is, and yet God still called him to go forth and speak to others. "Wow" is all I can really say.

To conclude: I can't rate these past few days on a scale, but I can say that I had a great weekend, I have a great life, and I have been truly blessed by God. If I had to say it, the past 3 days have all been 5 star days.

Good Night and God Bless
