Still more awesome that I knowI love my brother. And although I have lived with him for the past 17 years, he still seems to amaze me every day with something new that he has done. This has been true for a long time now, and I thought the shock of him constantly amazing me would have worn off and just become common place, but that hasn't happened. I am still impressed with him at all of the new adventures he takes on and succeeds at. I think that if you take the time to get to know someone, you will continue to find out cool new things about them everyday.
My attitude towards God should probably be closer to this idea than it currently is. I have come to rely on God to be there, and trust that He will do great things for me, but I wonder if some of my amazement of His awesomeness is gone. I hate taking things for granted, but I wonder if my prayer and faith life has turned to that stage. Despite all of the amazing things God has done for me in the past week, I don't think I have been quite as thankful or amazed at them. I think I have taken a more sour path and thought that God owed these things to me, which is not how I should be looking at my life.
I am SO excited for my trip to Italy, my chance to spend time with my sisters and drawing closer to God. I am positive that I will regain that sense of awe and wonder while in Italy, and can't wait to bring that home and allow that to be a continued part of my faith life.
