Hi, everybody.  Sorry that I've been so horrible about posting since I've been here.  I would like you all to know that I check your journals each and every day, whether I post to mine or not.  One thing I definitely do like about the new mindsay is the whole frontpage thing with the posts and replies and everything right there.  Makes it easier to keep up with all of you.  So here's the latest...

I've been pretty busy down here... mostly with music stuff, obviously.  I'm playing so many different songs in so many different groups that I can hardly keep track of what I'm doing where... it's craziness.  I haven't been practicing my lesson stuff as faithfully as I should be...but I'm doing a pretty good job, and I'm doing fine in the lessons.  It's just hard to spend an hour over there when you know it's the only real time you have to yourself all day.

I'm going home on Friday!  I'll be home until sometime Monday afternoon... so give me a ring, lol!  I'm definitely looking forward to getting together with Jordan and Emily on Saturday night, though... I hope that still works for both of them, cause I'm excited about seeing them again!

Well... it's been a while since I've thrown a scripture up here, but I came across a great Psalm the other night, and I want to share it with all of you...

Psalm 67

May God be merciful and bless us.  May his face shine with favor upon us.

May your ways be known throughout the earth, your saving power among people everywhere.  May the nations praise you, O God.  Yes, may all the nations praise you.

How glad the nations will be, singing for joy because you govern them with justice and direct the actions of the whole world.  May the nations praise you, O God.  Yes, may all the nations praise you.

Then the earth will yield its harvests, and God, our God, will richly bless us.  Yes, God will bless us, and people all over the world will fear him.
