Restore us, LORD God Almighty;
make your face shine on us,
that we may be saved.
Psalms 80:17
This is my new favorite bible verse. I think I pray it like 50 times a day, and that's only a slight exageration. When I pray this I can visualize the Lord shining down his beautiful light of truth and freedom on me and saving me. He sets us free from bondage and sin and that is restoration! I love this verse, did I mention that yet? I love God better.
The other day the Lord told me to draw this verse. Excuse me what? I don't draw, I can barely color in the lines. But I did it, and it was amazing. Not the drawing, not at all, but the experience. It was like I was experiencing his light shining in a whole new way. Visual stuff is good for people like myself. Sometimes being obedient to silly things often are the most amazing moments. He restores, and he saves! He does, just ask. And if your not in a place where you can pray this for yourself, ask me, cause I will pray this for you!!!!

Canadian mermaid
If mermaids were real, I would be one. Seriously.
This weekend I went to Oliphant, Ontario which if you don't know your Canadian geography, and even if you do know your Canadian geography you probably still don't know where Oliphant is. It is in the south portion of the Bruce Penninsula and is on the coast line of Lake Huron. I went with four of my dear girl friends and we stayed at my friend Allie's family cottage. The cottage was beautiful and relaxing and I had a wonderful time hanging out with the girls, shopping, playing silly games, eating good food, and giggling a lot. My favorite part of the weekend though was swimming in lake Huron with Allie and Christina. The water was so clean and warm. And for some reason I feel so free and most like myself when I am in water. One reason is, I don't have much physical pain when I am in water. Also it is so refreshing and relaxing. If my body would let me, I think I could live the majority of my life in water. I would be a real good mermaid. Really.

Piña colada Trifle
Okay, I have come up with a really easy, no bake, yummy summer dessert that I expect you all to try and report back to me on. Sorry that I don't have any pictures. I will take pictures the next time I make it, promise.
1 Sara Lee or Entemans pound cake or you can use about 20 lady fingers
some rum ( I say some because we all have different levels, I like a lot, about a cup)
1 large packet of vanilla instant pudding
3 cups of whole milk
2 cups of sweetened shreaded cocunut
1 can crushed pineapple
1 large container of cool whip
Poke holes in your cake with a toothpick and drizzle at least 2 shots of rum on the cake, and I like to add a little rum to the pudding, if you are using lady fingers dip the cookies in the rum in a pie dish.
Make the vanilla pudding with the 3 cups of milk and rum (optional) and mix in 1 1/2 cups of cocunt.
Layer the trifle with cake, pudding, pineapple, cool whip in that order, about 3 layers.
Toast the remaider 1/2 cup of cocunut and top trifle. You can also put some marcino cherries on top as well. Told you it was easy.
Oh and it doesn't matter what kind of rum you use, I use light or pineapple rum.
