with friends

Nights like tonight remind me why friends are so important. They refresh our souls, they love and carry joy with them and give without expectations. With no pressure to look a certain way or be a certain person, I was able to just be me tonight. And without fluid discussion, I simply sat with a few friends this evening and as we snacked, chatted and crafted with each other, I was able to soak up our friendship and felt washed with love by the time they left, refreshed.

One of my professors has been asking if we have a community who loves us, accepts us, forgives us and models Christ's love to us. Tonight, I was able to taste a bit of that community and why it is so important. It encourages us physically, emotionally and spiritually. And it is one of the most refreshing tastes you can experience.

the photo is a blurry snippet of our crafting tonight. more to come on that. 

oh yes, the last month

February, where did you go. You seemed to be here for so long, yet I seemed to be somewhere else...trapped in a time warp, perhaps? Or maybe under a pile of books? Or in Wonderland? I wish the last was true. Or the second too. Well, wherever I was, which I probably will uncover for you in new posts, I have found myself here wondering about my lack of blogging abilities in March. Never the less, I have returned. 

If this was nonsense, know it is not you. 

Happy Sunday, blog folks. Jenna is back. Yes, in third person too. 

ps. i took this photo on my iPhone while driving and kind of love it. dangerous or victorious?
