  • Relaxing just a bit till school starts again . . .

    This is going to be short, hopefully sweet :) and to the point.  I got to spend all day with Sarah :) Here's the summary of our day.

    This morning - watched the video "While You Were Sleeping!" :)

    This morning/afternoon - scrapbooked five new pages into my "Colin and Priscilla's Courtship album" :)

    This afternoon - went out and shot the .22 rifle and .22 handgun . . . and did alright :)

    Yep, been a full day :) but a nice relaxing day too. :) It was nice just to talk and hang out with Sarah.

  • A letter!!

    Just got a letter from Colin today! :)  I got home from work, and Mom greeted me with a big smile and said "Today's a really good day, Priscilla.  Look on the counter!"  And there it was, a letter from my man! :)  Colin was praising God and reported that God has really been blessing.  At the same time, he said things are pretty tough; I know Colin covets prayer for continued health, endurance, and safety.   Please keep him in prayer with me this next week.

    In about ten days, I'll be meeting my man at the airport! 

    Sorry this is so short, but it's late enough tonight, and I've got to get up early tomorrow morning to go and take my two finals.  I'm trying to get to bed in good time too.   God bless you all, and goodnight.

  • I heard from my man!!

    I don't have any time to write right now - I'm studying for two finals and going to visit a good friend this week, but I did want to let you all know that I heard from Colin! :)

    I wasn't expecting to get a letter, but he was able to send one. :)  Praise God, he passed his PT and land nav tests, and did well! :) God really blessed.  Thank you all for praying. :)

    Tomorrow will be two weeks, and then we just have two weeks left to go.  God has been blessing, and I would ask continued prayer for Colin's safety and endurance.  It's a tough four weeks, but my man's doing well, and God is good. :)



    Thank you and God bless!

  • A song of hope . . .

    "In Christ Alone"
    Words and Music by Keith Getty & Stuart Townend

    In Christ alone my hope is found;
    He is my light, my strength, my song;
    This cornerstone, this solid ground,
    Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
    What heights of love, what depths of peace,
    When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
    My comforter, my all in all—
    Here in the love of Christ I stand.

    In Christ alone, Who took on flesh,
    Fullness of God in helpless babe!
    This gift of love and righteousness,
    Scorned by the ones He came to save.
    Till on that cross as Jesus died,
    The wrath of God was satisfied;
    For ev'ry sin on Him was laid—
    Here in the death of Christ I live.

    There in the ground His body lay,
    Light of the world by darkness slain;
    Then bursting forth in glorious day,
    Up from the grave He rose again!
    And as He stands in victory,
    Sin's curse has lost its grip on me;
    For I am His and He is mine—
    Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

    No guilt in life, no fear in death—
    This is the pow'r of Christ in me;
    From life's first cry to final breath,
    Jesus commands my destiny.
    No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man,
    Can ever pluck me from His hand;
    Till He returns or calls me home—
    Here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand.

About Me

  • I'm just another country girl trying to live each day abandoned to my great and wonderful heavenly Father. Seeing His hand in my life and in the lives of those nearest and dearest to me is amazing. I'm in a relationship with a man I deeply admire, and we're seeking a future together. One step at a time, God leads us closer to Him. It's my desire to be a wife and mother and be part of the grand adventure of raising a family that glorifies God. I still have much to learn, but that's part of the adventure, the Great and Terrible Quest. It's Great because there's nothing better than giving one's life in service to the King of Kings. It's Terrible (as in challenging) because Satan wants my destruction and ruin...and also because I'm a sinner like everyone else, and I make mistakes. But I wouldn't trade anything for getting my chance to embark on the Great and Terrible Quest.
