| I am very excited to say that in less than 100 days I will be Mrs. Jonathan Putnam! I am so honored to stand behind such a humble man. He stands for integrity, love, passion, depth, and obviously our mutual love of Jesus Christ. The wedding plans have been fun, soon we will be apartment shopping, and what i really can't wait for is to bust a move on the dance floor. Maybe the next time i write it will be in 100 days! | | |
| well, i did not see myself sitting in the Hudson Library (supposedly working on homework) three months ago. I thought i was going to be downtown Chicago studying at Moody Bible Institute pursing my masters in discipleship. But there was a change in events.... my path and my life was turned around for the better. I started dating my ex-boyfriend again. I did not see this coming! I was shocked for months and kept repeating the phrase, "Who knew?" "Who knew what God had up His sleeve?" My life has been turned upside down and I LOVE IT!!! Now i am living in Ohio, looking for a job (sooner than later), working on my Master thru Moody's online program, and getting to hang out with my boyfriend in person- way better than the phone. I feel like I am the most blessed woman in the world. God is giving me all the desires of my heart. And i can say that i am soooo glad that God's ways are not my ways, because i would be missing out on His greatness. No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived the good things He has planned for those who love Him!

| you know transitions are wierd. i had a great ending at state. my retirement party was sooo encouraging (all the girls that i have been hanging out with this past year showed up... i was SHOCKED! and encouraged!) , i got to say goodbye to all my church friends (they even came and packed up my uhaul with my parents which spoke the world to me), i also said goodbye to my staff team which was the hardest to leave because they have been my family these last 4 years. but when i arrived in ohio i was sooo glad to leave michigan behind. i loved the people but not really the "city" called lansing. its hardly a city in my book. God was so kind to me as I was reminicing on His faithfulness and love as i reflected on my last 4 years there. and as always i am excited for what is ahead. "no eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind can conceive the good things God has in store for those who believe in HIm." | | |
| i was leary entering into my 29th year... even leary entering into another birthday since my previous birthday i spent crying over a recent breakup!!!! but this year was REALLY different... God sure does know how to make me feel special.
I spent my 1st day being 29 at a coffee shop thanking God for all the things He did in my last year of life, having lunch with my mom at a fav. restuarant (I love my mom), shopping, seeing a movie then meeting up with some friends for dessert and a drink. One of the best things was receiving exactly 29 phone calls from family and friends. What more could i ask for?
NO eye has seen, NO ear has heard, NO mind can conceive all the things God has in store for those who love Him- i wonder what blessings, hardships, laughter and tears God has in store for me this next year? What i can attest tooo... is that through all of it: good and bad God is good and will meet me whereever i am at in life.

| It's been a while since i've been on xanga! I have been on the go since Christmas break- being in Mexico- Indianapolis- Daytona Beach- Cleveland and now I am back in Lansing! After being back into the normal crusade life and the busyness of it- my heart tells me something different- i am restless and anxious. I am turning 29 soon and it is freaking me out.. i feel like my life isn't what i wanted it to be at this age. So i am trying to surrender to God's good and perfect plan in the midst of me not knowing if i like His dreams for me. In the midst of my confusion I read this insert today that brought peace to my heart and tears to my eyes:
"And God does not have mood swings. Life and its uncertainties may shake you, but God- the Rock of Ages- does not move. If you cling to Him, His strength will sustain you. God's unchanging purposes gives you eternal significance. Psalm 33:11 states, "The LORD's plans stand firm forever; His intentions can never be shaken." God's plan is unchangeable." - Bill Bright | | |
