restoration...

These are the lyrics to a song we sang in church this past Sunday, I can't get them out of my head...I love it! 

Restoration
You bring restoration, You bring restoration
You bring restoration, to my soul

You've taken my pain, and You call me by a new name
You've taken my shame, and in it's place, you give me joy

You take my mourning, turn it into dancing
You take my weeping, turn it into laughing
You take my mourning, turn it into dancing
You take my sadness, turn it into joy

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, You make all things new
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, You make all things new
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, You make all things new, all things new
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, You make all things new


HALLELUJAH- He makes all things new! Sooo... I have recently decided...like within the last week decided I want to go to the Village Church. I have really been struggling with where I want to go, and where I feel like the Lord wants me to be, and the only reason I wasn't going to the Village is because it's almost an hour away. I went a week ago with my friends, and I just started thinking if I love it that much there, why not drive? I feel like finding a church that you really love is going to be worth it. And my friends are driving at least 30 minutes where they are going...and I have always loved the Village, every time I am there. So, I decided I am going to try it out and see how it goes, I went this past Sunday, and I just felt at peace with my decision and I really felt at home there. I am going to look into a home group that is in my area. So, I am really excited about it! And, hopefully it will give me the opportunity to see my cousin Kari more, I haven't been to the same service as her, but once I get my work schedule situated, I hope to maybe go to the same service! 

More good news...my sister is engaged! I couldn't be more happier for her! I am so excited for her, she deserves all the happiness in the world, and I am just so thrilled for her and Joseph!
