For starters, Devin has graduated from MMI and is working at Cowboys Alamo City Harley Davidson. I am in my 3rd semester of nursing school and will graduate December 2015 with by BSN. We are still unpacking and getting settled into our temporary home :) thanks to Devin's parents and we have recently taken big steps in bringing Jesus into our lives even more.
As many of you could probably agree, going to church and making it a habit is difficult. Life happens and sometimes we get distracted and think we don't have time to go to church. Devin has always said, "If I can't wear jeans and a tshirt, then it's not the church for me." We found a church in WA when we lived there and loved it, but one Sunday we didn't attend and didn't find the time to go back. Now a few years late, we are settled in one town together and on a mission to find a church that we could connect with in order to make time for Jesus and make going to church a habit.
About a month ago now, we stumbled upon North Rock church off of 1604 and 281 near Stone Oak. Our first time we weren't 100% sure if it was the church for us, but the sermon on love was amazing and we clicked with every thing the pastor said. We weren't able to go the following week because family was visiting, but we went the week after that and felt 100% that this was the church for us. I had wanted to "church shop" a little more, but God was telling us to continue attending and participate in what North Rock calls Growth Track. We attended for 3 weeks straight ( 3rd sunday in a row being today) and are pleased to announce that we have become members of North Rock and are serving on the Rock Start Team. I joined to be a part of the greet team and Devin joined to be a part of the events and cafe team. We feel at home.
Last week, we attended a marriage bible study group and enjoyed it as well. We plan to make Tuesday night another time to learn about Jesus.
In all my 24 years of life, I have never felt so close to God and Jesus as I do now. Devin and I are working on strengthening our marriage with God. I love seeing Devin grow in his faith and becoming an even more well rounded man of God. We have gone through many trials and tribulations in our 9 years of being together and we plan on being together for eternity.
I just wanted to share with you how great God is and how great North Rock is. If you feel that you would like to attend, come join us! We will be there at 9am to greet you and give you coffee! It's an awesome place with awesome people.
Psalm 23: 1-6
