Weekend In Review

I hope you all had a wonderful fathers day weekend! Mine was a packed one. After my MCAT on Friday my parents surprised me by booking a room at the Gaylord National Resort in Washington, DC! I felt like a little princess! Saturday morning we continued our trip to the InterContinental Hotel New York Barclay. Ross University School of Medicine was hosting a meet and greet with future students and current faculty. This was a great opportunity of make new friends. I saw a childhood church friend that I had not seen in over 18 years, she is attending Ross in the Fall as well! We then visited Time Square, it was amazing! We got back on the road to make it to church Sunday morning! The guest minister was Dr. Jeremiah Wright; he did a wonderful job encouraging the young men in the church! Give all glory and honor to God, I am living my dream.

Have a wonderful week, stay encouraged!

 



Fresh Start!

Happy Monday to all! Today begins the beginning of a new week! Monday mornings always make me feel rejuvenated! This past weekend was amazing. Friday I spent time with one of my very good friends Jenn; we went out to eat then watched the release of "God's Not Dead". The movie was so powerful, it served as a great reminder that regardless of tough situations you can't deny the presence of God in our life.

Sunday was phenomenal, my dad preached from John 6:60-70. The subject was, "It takes all kinds." He listed the type of people that come together on a Sunday morning to worship the Lord. He then pulled from the text the 3 kind of people that Jesus encountered: Deserters, Devotees, and a Devil (Judas). He then tied everything together by listing 3 important reasons as to why God would allow a wolf to roam around in sheep clothing:
1) They will push us to prayer
2) They will direct us to our destiny
3) They show us how sovereign God is

I'm looking forward to this week. I need to get a lot more studying done, the MCAT is fast approaching. I am also looking forward to this upcoming Sunday, I've been invited to a Delta Ball, I need to find a dress this week! I will try to do a better job updating my blog this week!

Bestie Jenn! :)

Always happy to be home!

Home Sweet Home

This week went by really fast! I enjoyed my time in New York. Within 3 days I was able to visit Manhattan, see most of my family, and of course enjoy my Oma's delicious homemade cooking! The moment I returned back to Virginia I went to attend my other grandmothers Christmas Program, where she sang Christmas Carols! Tomorrow I will attend my church Christmas play, it should be amazing! Below are a couple of pictures of my trip, enjoy!
