Really dont have much to say... I just felt like I should blog because I am just so happy and I am online. There is nothing urgent I need to say (well there are a lot of urgent things, but none that I have the time to write..).
I got off work tonight at 7, and it was beautiful outside. Crisp, but not freezing. And as I walked up Amsterdam to 96th (30 blocks), listening to the new Hillsong United Aftermath album... I was just so full of unexplainable joy. Every breath I took in was exhilarating, and I couldn't help but throw an occasional skip in my step as I walked to the bus. Being a nanny, my life is far from glamorous, but I have everything I need and could want right now. God's promises are being fulfilled. And to know that He takes care of every detail of our lives, if we let Him-- is just an amazing feeling. 3 years ago, nobody would recognize this me. This me who is totally and completely in love with our Lord, and this life. 3 years ago, I never would have guessed that I would be more fulfilled and so incredibly happy not doing anything but serve every day, at work and everywhere else, because I love people and I love Him. And that makes every little thing I do.... big. Nothing is little. Nothing is small. Everything is precious.
And so, I really didnt have anything to say, except... I love breathing. and Jesus. and this city.
goodnight world.
Also, I am posting a picture of a restaurant called 'Hot and Crusty'. I passed it this eve, and I have to say, I am not very interested in eating there, purely because of the name. Their food may be hot, and it may be crusty, but I will never know.
