Christmas break '13

It's been a wonderful, encouraging week back here in H-Town. Got to see a lot of people whom God's really used in different seasons of life to give me more of Himself. Several delicious meals (gonna miss that bbq), good convos, Rockets basketball and even a little recreation (four games of lasertag!) later ... I feel like I'm ready for this next season of life back home in "soCal." Wish I coulda made the schedules work out to see some of you I missed but until next time ... Guess we'll have even more to catch up on. Deuces Houston. Special shoutout to my family and extended family. His faithfulness in each of our lives, despite our mistakes, is freakin amazing.

"Keep yourselves in the love of God"

But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. And have mercy on those who doubt; save others by snatching them out of the fire; to others show mercy with fear, hating even the garment stained by the flesh.
-Jude 1:20-23

the "feels"

There's something about this video that really stirs something I almost lost.

On another note, guess I'm in the right city.

#PostGradLife

Amongst the many late late nights in the Baylor library, I used to wonder what it was like for grad students ... they'd always have a stack of books (i dont think i ever checked out a book as an undergrad at baylor) and always seemed to be writing 100 page papers or something. I imagined that they were just starting the day when I was there trying to finish mine ... but perhaps tonight I realize I'm on the other side of things now haha. Well ... My paper's only 15 pages and I probably will never be a morning person. Oh well. #PostGradLife
