Spring is in the air... And so is love!

Hey guys :) back from Spring break! Well rested and ready to tackle the last quarter of undergrad! Super excited for everything new that's happening. My cousin is getting married in less than three months and I'll be graduated and out in the real world! And lots of other things along with that. It's sweet seeing people fall in love and get married. A good reminder of how relationships ought to be -- persistence, commitment, love, passion. No relationship works without forgiveness. Keeping your eye on what matters.... gratitude is key. 

God's goodness

"May He grant you according to your heart's desire, and fulfill all your purpose. We will rejoice in your salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners! May the LORD fulfill all petitions. Now I know that the LORD saves His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with the saving strength of His right hand." Psalm 20:4-6. I love psalms 20-22. It gives a good perspective of the hope we have in Him but the painful reality that we won't always feel Him near, that even sometimes we may feel forgotten or forsaken by Him. But the truth is He is with us, He is protecting us, and He will fulfill His purpose in us. Don't give up. Don't be discouraged. He who began a good work in you is faithful to complete it to the end.

Reflecting on God's goodness and grace throughout my life. One includes getting this job at Peet's.

The countdown

Hi friends :) I haven't posted in a while... Anyway, this is the last week or so of winter quarter at UCI! Then, spring break then spring quarter! It's unreal -- unreal how fast time goes by. This past weekend we celebrated my older brother's birthday. I'm grateful for my family. Also, got to buy school supplies for next quarter. That's always fun. :) The fun part about school. ;) Learning lots of things -- like how God's love doesn't run out on us and He never withholds His grace even when we're being naughty/evil! Also, He is a friend you can count on -- when no one else is there, when no one understands you, when you feel alone. He is there. 

Another thing to announce is my cousin is getting married! So many cool things happening all at once -- college graduation, being a bridesmaid in my cousin's wedding, one of my best friends pregnant! Time flies.... Remember to look up! And be grateful.
