My first real Thai dinner...

Tonight I went to the senior showcase at our school. I sat in front of a couple of teachers, as we were walking out they invited me to have dinner with them. We ended up going to an outdoor restaurant completely Thai. The buildings were thai the food was thai and I loved it. We got dishes and shared them. It truly was the most awesome night. We talked about school, about people, about the lack of compassion that seems to exist right now. We talked about the Lord and just different things that he has allowed us to believe and has guided us in. It was amazing to me that I was sitting with two people who desired to be with the Lord just as much as I did. Yet, our views of Him and what He expects from our life are totally different. I wish that I had taken pictures because this place truly was right out of a thai travel magazine. It was perfect with the sun setting looking out at the water. It truly just made me feel community again. I didn't realize how long it had been since I had true community and I didn't realize how much I desire and need my community to be older. I guess I have been surrounded by people that are younger than me. It has not been horrible but there is a certain maturity to someone my age or older that I have not found yet, until tonight. And so I am excited to see what the Lord is going to do. How He is going to shape and mold my life.

Prayer...I think it is the key to everlasting joy and peace.
