SO it has been quite the week. I have had some pretty crazy times! I had a Gnarly Sunday last week with my laptop and digital camera being stolen out of my room. Luckily I wasn't in my room but it still is a bit discouraging. I was staying at a house that I am watching for a few weeks and my roommate was sleeping hard when it happened I guess. Then in the evening I lost my wallet so I spent a little time canceling my debit and credit cards. I pretty much got over the fact of it just being a little testing time and moved on. Then Tuesday night we had a robbery again, although this time it was another staff persons house and WE WERE ALL AWAKE. It was about 9:45 and a laptop and cameras were stolen again.. Man did it suck, so I have spent the last 4 days improving our fences around the base. It was only natural to put on the cowboy hat and fix the fences so I have had some fun looks of people driving by! IT has been fun, on thursday night I was able to find my wallet in my room. How I didn't find it when I tore my room apart is beyond me.
It has been a bit challenging finding time to check email and all that stuff and even update this. Because I have to go to the office and use one of the computers there. It is more of a hassle and so therefore if I can do it I do it but if not then whatever. I have learned the simplicity of life again. NO laptop, NO more of my music (which has probably been my biggest challenge) I used to listen to music ALL the time. It has given me more opportunity to spend more time in prayer and sing to myself. Although now as I am in the office I chose the one computer that had speakers and I am jamming to country music!! AHHH it is awesome, it has been a relatively slow month its more of a time to just kinda catch up on things around here and do community outreaches!!
RUMINATION means:

2 : to chew repeatedly for an extended period.
Intransitive verb definition is

This page will be a little different from now on. I will be posting WEEKLY scriptures for us all to RUMINATE over. Think upon, Ponder, to chew on it. We as Christ Followers are called to Read, LISTEN, AND APPLY the Word to our lives. I desire to give an opportunity to you for personal growth along with me. Take what you read here and meditate upon it and find ways to apply it to your everyday life. I invite you to leave your comments, corrections, concerns, whatever they may be I want to hear from you!!!
