ephesians 5:23-32

I, Joanne, take you Jesus
to be my God,
my partner in life,
and my one true love.
I will cherish our friendship and love you today,
tomorrow, and forever
I will trust you and honor you
I will laugh with you
and cry with you.
I will love you faithfully
For better or for worse,
for richer or for poorer,
in sickness and in health
What may come I will always be there.
As I have given you my hand to hold
So I give you my life to keep
As long as we both shall live.


in marriage, its no longer flirting, dating, you've past the point of simply 'breaking up.' it is a commitment, a devotion, and a profound love. you are no longer trying to build a foundation, now you are building an intimate relationship. so are you going to say, i do.


well anyways, did i ever end up talking about retreat? well if not.
friday october 14th. woke up at 6:00, proud of me y'all?! :) hehe but yes, got to school on timeee and i was soo happy i dont even know why, maybe i'm not such a horrible morning person ;)..nahhh. anyways, so i sat avec angelina on the bus and i was starting to get really tired, no not boredd, it was actually kinda amusing watching angel flip through sucha girly magazine whooo i feel completely in tune with hollywood now. anyways, i tried sleeping for like 5 minutes, which didnt work too well, and then we finally get there and it was prettyy cold, but the emptiness in the atmosphere was really comforting, you know? anyways, we went over the rules and then i rannnn for the room, which wasnt even hard cuz i had like zero competition, besides helen...but we werent even in the same cabin, oh helen. *laughs* anywayyys, so we got the room and guess what i found behind the curtaaains! a bee, three flies, and like a massload of ladybugs. oh babyyy~ yes, i think i screamed pretty loudly. LOL i love vera mann, her with all her skill killed the bee and probably a fly along the way. shes so cool. :P anyways the cabin wasnt all that baad when you think about it....
anyways, we sang for like two hours, it was okay, sooo tired after it though, like honestly all you want to do is sleep after singing...and on your way back to the cabin you'll be singing. lol. the games were pretty fun, i cooould have been more sociable but its hard oyy, next time.
worship, amazing as usuaaal, maybe its something about isolated worship that makes everyone seem more..inspired....

okay, food we ate there:
lunch: chicken fajitaa (YUMMAYY)
dinner: lasagna
breakfast: toast, sausages
lunch: bbq, hotdogs, burgers
dinner: sweet chicken & rice.
to be compared with next retreat :P
