I'm Getting Excited!
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain. for the old order of things has passed away." He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!"...
Revelation 21:1-5a (NIV)
Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life...And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him...There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever. The angel said to me, "These words are trustworthy and true...
Passages taken from Revelation 22:1-6 (NIV)
"Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
Revelation 22:12, 13
..."Yes, I am coming soon."
Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.

Special thoughts about my family...
These aren't all super deep. I'm just working on thinking positive thoughts. ;)
I thought I'd start with thinking up little things I enjoy about each member of my family.
Dad: Always laughs at my jokes...even if they don't make sense. :P When I need him to be serious, however, he can do that too. Shows his interest in me and his love toward me just by telling me he wants to hear about my day or what's on my mind.
Mom: Understands when I don't feel like talking (like on the way to a major piano competition), but knows I don't like quiet either. She talks to me, but graciously understands when I don't respond or comment on what she's saying.
Blake: Sings me to sleep at night! I know right? What could be better than a live concert every night?? With school he's been a little too busy to serenade me to sleep and I didn't realize how much I missed it until he did it again the other night. So amazing! :D
Grace: Very forgiving! Patient. Kind. Always looking out for people's best interests. Giving. GRACious.
I have the most amazing little sister!!
Samantha: What could be better than a four year old telling you, "You're the best!"? I think that says it all. :)
