Visiting California
For a graduation gift I was given a set of tickets to fly to California whenever I wanted to visit my brother and sister-in-law and my baby niece Joie. My cousin who lives in Seattle has been wanting to visit also, so we compared our calendars and found out that Easter weekend would work for us both. So we flew down last Wednesday, and have been having a great time catching up with family and enjoying each other. I wish we all lived closer together, but it's been nice having a little vacation.

Give Praise to God
I am constantly amazed by God. Sometimes I think He must just sit back and watch me get all worked up about things and just chuckle to Himself and think, "oh Macey, if only you knew the amazing things I have in store for you."
So often I get all worked up because things "aren't working out" the way I want them to. But then, just a few weeks/days/or months later things are better than I could have ever imagined. I wonder who people give credit to for all the good things in their life if they don't believe in God. I imagine a non-believer would be very sad to revel in joy on their own. I am so thankful to have been raised in a family that readily gives praise to God, and to have parents who always point me towards Him.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11.

Moving Day!
It's moving day finally! I'm so excited!! Pictures of the place are coming soon, but until then, please enjoy this clip from one of my favorite FRIENDS episodes when Chandler, Joey, Monica, and Rachel all have a moving day of their own. :)

Explain to Me
Why do I let the happiness of someone else dictate how I behave? I know that I am in the right, and that all I need to do is continue down this road, but someone being upset with me makes me stubble my steps. I need to just do what I set out to accomplish all along and let her be upset. She will always convince herself that she was right and I was wrong, but as long as I can look myself in the mirror and know that I've done the right thing I will be ok.
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer. Psalm 19:14
