Jesus Gives the BEST Gifts

Yesterday I was given an awesome camera with a gigantic extra lense to use for the rest of my time in Germany! What makes it so sweet is, about a month ago, I was talking to God about how beautiful it is here and I asked Him if He would provide a nice camera to capture it with... and He did! Wow. This has been a reminder of how God so desires to be intricately involved in our lives... He cares even about the littlest things.

(Uhh, Jesus, I also could use some blue jeans without holes. haha)

Modern Day Abolitionists

Some friends of mine that are doing something about the sex slavery that is happening today in America. Check out their website... http://www.photogenx.net/sexandmoney.

Watch them. Pray for them. Support them. Join them.

Dang, that went fast... Jesus is a big spender

The Brevity of Life


At 2am this morning, my roommate/classmate from Belgium was woken by some men from the red cross and the German police to bring the horrible news that her dad had been hit by a car while riding his bike... sadly, he passed away. Pray for her and her family... Jesus, be very present.

"Jesus Money" continued...


So, my $100 of "Jesus Money", which I told about in an earlier post, has changed nationalities, and has now become 60 euros... dang exchange rate.

I made my first blessing purchase yesterday... bought a guy an apple-fritter-looking pastery from the local bakery.

Current balance: 59 euros
