There are certain days that I cannot imagine how the scenes in heaven could be any better than the scenes on earth. Yesterday was one of those days. I went down with three guys from here to a beach called Three Cliffs. Imagine hiking a mile to get down to the beach. Then seeing rocky and grassy cliffs surrounding you as you stand amidst a stretch of sand. And as the sun's brilliant light makes your eyes squint, you look out at the waters lightly crashing on shore. Then you turn your head and see castle ruins to explore and cows feeding in the distance. We hiked mountains and then sunbathed in the sand. Ah. It was heavenly. And I cannot possibly explain to someone not there. But this was only a GLIMPSE of what awaits me in heaven. I am SURE I'm going there and I only have to wait a lifetime. Following this lovely day, we got icecream, coffee, and beer. Good good day. This was the only picture I got, since Dave took photos on his nice camera.
Sidenote. A man that really wanted conversation came and talked to use for a long time. He told Dave to gaze into his eyes and then asked him if he thought George W. Bush was the mastermind behind the Twin Towers.
Today, I met with a girl from Bible study. She is so sweet to take a train to come meet with me. We talked for a little under 2 hours and I enjoyed every minute. Slow rest of the day followed as I returned emails, worked out financials, did some planning, and packed. Cerianne and I had a girly night together. Going to miss her as she goes on holidays and I go to Ireland! I "move" tomorrow while the family I live with now goes on holiday. Busy day tomorrow. Meeting with four different people in the church. God is good to keep me busy!
