there's a story...

...that's been on my mind recently. i'm trying to think of ways to portray this story in a new light because it is a story that so many have heard so many times. please forgive my lack of posting while i mull over this story for a while and see what it is that God is trying to teach me through this story again. i've already learned much, but it isn't going away, so that must mean that there is more. i'm excited to see where this "more" takes me.

last night, i was talking with some friends and walked away from the conversation so encouraged and refreshed. it is wonderful to have friends who have that kind of effect on you. it was the kind of conversation that makes you instantly want to pull out your bible and read and soak up more and more of the stories that God chose to write down for our benefit. amazing stuff.
