Bendito sea el SENOR, Dios de Israel!

Miguel and I had a totally sweet day yesterday!  We went to Portico with two other friends and learned all about the 2nd commandment.  We learned that we have to be really careful to not put anything in front of God, because whatever consumes the most of our thoughts and energy is what we worship.  Pastor Chris said that to know what it is that we put before God, we just have to think about what we are super focused on all the time.  What occupies every thought?  What do you spend all your time thinking about and then are prompted to take action based on those thoughts, in order to accomplish them?  The problem for me is that I spend so much time thinking about EVERYTHING!  Like Spanish...super focused on that.  Soccer too...  Photography, making videos, computers, any technology really...  School and how to get my kids to learn...  Traveling...  Baseball...  Snowboarding...  Guitar...  Legos...  Movies...  Pysch...   Lost...  24...  Mooses...  SERIOUSLY, the list continues.  

Now I don't seriously think I worship all of those, but I definitely spend a huge amount of time thinking about them and acting on them.  Anyway...so then after Portico, we decided to try a new church that we just found Saturday night.  It's a spanish church that's very small.  It meets in a little store building that's part of other stores.  It was AWESOME!!!  It was completely in Spanish and it was so cool being there with people praying and calling out Jesus' name, singing songs, and teaching about Jesus all in Spanish!  Miguel and I left saying, "We're definitely going back next week!"

Then we went to a friend's basketball game at Monticello High School to make a video for him to send to colleges.  He's really good and it was great to see him again because we haven't seen him since the soccer season ended in the fall.  It was a busy day, but AWESOME!
