En Route to Boston!

Hey Friends! Happy Thursday! Here we are at the airport waiting to fly to Boston, MA for my sweet cousin Annie’s wedding. Sort of feels like I’m going to another country since I’ve basically been glued to the Midwest most of my life. We’ll see what this east coast business is all about!

Here’s how I feel about airplanes:

1. It is to me the most unatural human experience EVER! I mean we are sitting in chairs in the sky THATS weird.

2. It’s like a life or death experience… Although Nick keeps telling me that I’m more likely to crash in a car than a plane. I’m encouraged to have the hope of heaven… To believe that death secure in Christ is only gain… Thanks apostle Paul!

3. Yeah I cried on my first plane ride. I’ve moved past the crying and I’m facing my fear! Wow I’m such a risky person can’t u tell? :)

4. Aaas yes. The people watching. The chance to observe mankind… I feel like airports give you a glimpse into so many different backgrounds… Cool yo.

5. Fighting to be eternally minded and to see His purposes in each moment… And wondering what kind of conversatons I will have on the plane… always an interesting place to get to know someone! I have to fight not to be introverted and individual… Oh and the fact that a little boy just ran into me and my luggage is helping! Haha! I need more distractions like that!

Well, like I said above… We’ll see what this east coast business is all about!

Peace!

    “Consider well of the office, the bloodshed, and the holy life of Christ — His office is to expiate sin, and to destroy it. His blood was shed for it: his life condemned it. Love Christ, and thou wilt hate that which caused his death. Love him, and thou will be made more like him.” - [...]
  • The Gospel & Christian Experience
    “Spiritual experience that does not arise from God’s word is not Christian experience. . . . Not all that passes for Christian experience is genuine.

  • We glorify God by working out our own salvation
    “We glorify God by working out our own salvation. God has twisted together his glory and our good.

  • Mercy triumphs over Judgement
    “‘Mercy triumphs over Judgment’ Mankind’s sentence now appealed; From the holy God offended, Righteousness has been revealed! Glory to the Justifier!

  • Ready for the Altar
    “It was with thanks He broke the bread, though sold with silver. The Son of Man is glorified, He says, and God is glorified in Him. So to the Cross He moves. He is ready for the altar. He will sacrifice with the voice of thanksgiving. ‘I will pay . . .’ This is His [...]
