AUTUMN'S PEAK: Thoughts on Spring
http://ajoy9.blogspot.com/2012/03/thoughts-on-spring.html
Thursday, March 29, 2012. I have heard many times from people over the past couple weeks of heat wave here in Minneapolis, “I love Spring! 8221; I have been tempted to say the same, though I never thought of this as my favorite season. And so I have wondered (as I did 8 years ago when I changed my favorite color from orange to red) if I should change my favorite season officially to Spring? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Our last days in Mexico. Baptism, Parties and Julito. With a joyful heart.

AUTUMN'S PEAK: August 2011
http://ajoy9.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 30, 2011. He just left 20 minutes ago, but it hit me. Maybe a 7-4 schedule is not about my evening being free, as much as it is about my mornings? I didn't really think about how it would align with Matt's schedule. Maybe God's up to something.again. Our devotional was Psalms 27, "Wait on the Lord.". Saturday, August 27, 2011. But then again, every song has its bridge, every plot it's pre climax lull. Wednesday, August 10, 2011. Maybe there is a way to love this world, but not be of it, t...

AUTUMN'S PEAK: June 2011
http://ajoy9.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 27, 2011. Was tagged on a photo of Julito and I in front of the mural, see at the end. that feels like ages ago. We are so fast pace here, even when we're slow. It has been sweet, but, there have definitely been moments of adjustment, even sadness. My family and I were celebrating my belated birthday, and sitting around the table I couldn't help but feel like we should call 20 people and ask them to come over, even if they were strangers. Tuesday, June 21, 2011. Our last weekend, really coul...

AUTUMN'S PEAK: October 2011
http://ajoy9.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 29, 2011. Maybe Mexico and Mn. are more alike then I realize. Maybe ministry is beautiful and ugly no matter where are you. I miss the beautiful right now. Wednesday, October 26, 2011. It seems to me that my situation, is an ideal situation in many ways. 24 hours upon 24 hours of endless possibilities. Ideal, and overwhelming at all the same time. I read a fellow blogger's post of a quote by Charles Spurgeon. It reads, "When you can't trace his hand, trust his heart." And I do. I smiled...

AUTUMN'S PEAK: January 2011
http://ajoy9.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 26, 2011. Tuesday, January 25, 2011. Majority of my class at the school is conversational. We read articles and then share our thoughts, or we look at pictures and use them as inspiration for conversation, or a few weeks ago we literally made our own newspaper and wrote articles based off real and made up news facts. We learn grammar along the way through writing exercises that supplement the conversation and, or simple correction while we are speaking. WHY would you do this to me God?

AUTUMN'S PEAK: November 2011
http://ajoy9.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 10, 2011. It has taken 3 months of unemployed blessing to bring me to the point of readiness. But I am ready. And with some healthy coaxing from the husband, and affirmation from my family, it is moving. I am starting my own editing and writing freelance business. Website is in the works, business cards in the mail. Clientele, well. anyone need an editor or content writer? I will be hosting a professional blog via the site. Don't feel slighted. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Church Clothe...

AUTUMN'S PEAK: May 2011
http://ajoy9.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 30, 2011. My 6 week baking course came to an end this week. But we ended on a sweet note, "Pay de Manzana." (Apple Pie). 7 ladies from the community in Santa Barbara were there. It has been a really sweet time-literally :). God uses everything- murals, baking classes, ballet classes and simple hospitality to show his love to those who are searching.and those who aren't. Friday, May 27, 2011. Mexico City and Newbies. Monday, May 23, 2011. Wednesday, May 18, 2011. Not sure where to start. Yeste...

AUTUMN'S PEAK: April 2011
http://ajoy9.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 28, 2011. Semana Santo y Mas. Easter morning we were up at 5:30 for a sunrise service on top of a hill in Ixtapaluca. We got about 3 hours asleep the night before, (between the new 24 tv series we are addicted to on our laptops and the street party outside our window). Saturday, April 23, 2011. Good Friday Service and Footwashing. Wednesday, April 20, 2011. The church here meets in a house space, about the size of my dining room growing up. It is the second church plant actually. ...On Su...

AUTUMN'S PEAK: January 2012
http://ajoy9.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 24, 2012. A wife like satisfaction. Saturday, January 21, 2012. My iphone says it is 10 degrees outside, which means the sun shining on my bedside, warming up only that section is even more deceiving than I thought. I will get up at some point to create a sauna in the bathroom with the hot shower water. That should clear me for at least enough time to make breakfast and come back to bed and fall asleep to Hillsong's "Con Todo" worship album. Sunday, January 1, 2012. With a joyful heart.

AUTUMN'S PEAK: Romans 8 and Romans 15
http://ajoy9.blogspot.com/2012/02/romans-8-and-romans-15.html
Tuesday, February 28, 2012. Romans 8 and Romans 15. This tug of war between being free from condemnation and free in the Spirit, yet in that freedom, choosing restraint and modesty and the weakness of others. Is that not Christ in a nutshell? There is no room for pride when truly considering your brother. The two cannot live together. What is this freedom, to simply give it away to be lowly to another. To be a slave again?
