So, here's the deal... I took a road trip to my grandmother's place to study the bible for a few days. She will be 83 years old next weekend, and is far beyond just knowledgeable about the Bible. For years she has gotten up every morning at 4:30 a.m. to study the Word, so she has learned a LOT! All that to say, I was blessed beyond measure, and I am honored to have ever known her, much less to have her as my grandmother...She is by far the most incredible woman I have ever known...

One day she was sharing some things with me, and scribbling down some of her thoughts, and drawing all at the same time. After about 30 minutes, this is what the paper looked like! :) I had to stop her and take a picture, just because it was so ...yeah, SHE'S A GENIUS!!!!!

Hello everyone! I am back from my adventure, and I must say, it far exceeded my expectations! God, that is, far exceeded my expectations! It's only now, that I'm just beginning to understand why the prophets of old fell on their faces, speechless in worship. The more I read the Bible, the more I get a tiny glimpse of His glory, of who He REALLY is...There have been 3 times in the past two months where I felt as small as a grain of sand...completely humbled in light of His holiness...Sure, I've known certain things, but it's as if I'm actually seeing it, for what feels like the first time..

Seriously...I have always been one to watch people cry during moments of "reflection", like the Lord's Supper, for instance. I have always wondered why I wasn't experiencing that kind of emotional gratitude...I was very grateful...wasn't i? Many times I've bowed my head, asked for forgiveness, thanked God for grace, and remembered what He has done for humanity, for me...not that one must cry to be grateful...But! I am learning that the more I read about Him, the deeper my love grows. The more I dig into the "Word", the more I am moved with awe, and emotion...the kind that makes me throw my hands in the air, and say, "I surrender. I am nothing. Have mercy on me."

We live in a society where EVERYTHING is about "us", so even taking a moment to reflect on anything but ourselves, is a rare occasion. To see Him, we must dethrone self. I think that's why we find it hard to agree with the "abandon all, and follow me" Jesus. We find every way around it because, we must have our self-created gospel. i am not saying i am innocent. i am most definitely guilty...

It's just, now that i am truly spending TIME "seeking" God...I really have to ask myself what is truth? What is faith, love, obedience, salvation? That's completely different than what i am accustomed to...Sure, i have asked before, but many times I have ignorantly fallen in line, following the blind....I have come to Him, "seeking" but not without my preconceived ideas about Him...

To be honest, i have no idea where this journey will end up... It has been so been so crazy to this point...just these past 2-3 months...or however long it's been :)

but at the end of this day...all i can say is...WOW! God is far more amazing than we give him credit for...

Well I'm packing my bags to go on a little journey of sorts. I am doing a lot of research for this book I'm writing...and I'm off to visit someone who is very knowledgeable on a lot of things I'm wondering about these days...she is in her 80's, but is a genius. So, I'm excited and honored to have the opportunity of spending a couple days learning under her...

so, I will write more soon...just wanted to say hello! love you all....
