I believe that it is safe to say that it has been awhile. I haven't blogged for over a month.. compared to trying to blog once a week or so. You would think I would have a bunch to blog about. So much is happening. I guess I'm just lazy. Well I suppose I'll talk about the obvious.
I just went on a trip. Yeah, it was pretty cool. You know, like going to the sites of the Bible and stuff and how I'll never be able to read the Bible the same way again. But seriously, it was an amazing trip. Full of experiences, memories, laughs and more. I loved it. I think my favorite part was Galilee, in Israel. Galilee is where a lot of Jesus' ministry took place. Like Capernaum, my site :), Jesus preformed so many miracles there. Its so amazing to think I was there. I was where it all happened. I went on the Sea of Galilee, where Jesus calmed the waters. Walked on water. Amazing. The Mt. of Beatitudes. Jesus' preaching. So amazing. Jerusalem was probably my second favorite. The Mt. of Olives and walking the path of the Passion. Being at the most likely site of Jesus' birth and calvery. So amazing. We saw the steps where Jesus walked to be captured before He went on the cross. I was in His cell. Where He had accepted what He was going to for us. So amazing. Oooo and! the garden. Where Jesus sweat blood. Where He realized He was taking on the wrath of God for me. Do you think He was thinking of us when He was on the cross? I've always wondered. I will always remember that trip. I will never read the Bible the same. It was definitely a blessing.
Today is Easter. Today was an amazing reminder of what Jesus did for me. We tend to just throw it around, yeah yeah Jesus died on the cross to take on our sins. It should never be cliche or just another thing. Jesus died on the cross, rose from the dead to pay the penalty for our sins and purchase a place for us in Heaven. I've been striving to think about what Heaven will be like. What rewards will I recieve? This life is temporary, we have greater things to look foward too!
Well my loves, I know you're reading this. You know I miss you all oh so much. Summer is getting closer and closer. I look through yalls pictures and I get so jealous, I miss hanging out with yall so much! I can't wait to be back in my house, with the ones I love. Don't get me wrong, I do love it here, but its not home. May 15th will be a very bittersweet day. I have made some pretty amazing friends here and I know I'll miss them.
Hopefully I'll pick up on my blogging again. Who knows.
Thanks for Reading
He is Risen!

Morgan I am so proud of the journey you have gone on this year. You literally have grown up this year. I am glad you went and am glad you didn't give up. Now, the task of keeping your feet to the fire will rest on us here at home. I hope I am up to the task. I know John is! Can't wait to see you and have you home, but more importantly, will be glad to see the progress the Lord has made in your life!
