Don't Mess with Texas!

WHM Family taken in Greece

Ponderings from Greece...

"My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water." Jeremiah 2:13. This verse really spoke to my heart in Greece as I strived to work & minister out of a broken cistern. I try so hard to do life from a broken cistern and truly believe it will hold water. I have such a hard head! Lord, teach us that only your cistern will hold water- not only water but living water.

Christy and I testing the Greece cuisine. Christy is trying an anchovy and I'm trying some kind of crawfish. Not bad at all, actually they were quite tasty.

Last night three girls and I went dancing downtown Philly. Bethany (in the picture) is my friend at WHM that I've mentioned before on my blog. We had a lot of fun together even though drinks started at $8. Expensive!!! I love living in the suburbs and then being able to stay with Bethany for a weekend of "city life."



The Haymes Family has become one of my adopted families in Philly. I sat down with them at church this morning and Bob said, "Welcome home." I looked at him and realized Philadelphia is home. As I drove around Center City this afternoon I was proud of my new city. It's good to be home.
