Hello again!

Yeah, it's been a while. I get sidetracked so easily, and feel like I never really have much to write about, plus I got tired of writing daily since hardly anyone paid attention to those posts. I wish I could write a travel blog, but I don't travel enough since I don't have the funds to do so. How awesome would it be to get paid to travel? Seriously. That is all I want to do. I don't want to be here. I don't want to be working. I just want to see the world.Don't get me wrong, I love massage, but that's not what I want to do for the rest of my life. I have an opportunity to follow a dream and go on an archeological dig in Israel, but I'm afraid to ask for all that time off, even though I'm technically self employed. It really shouldn't be an issue, but I feel like it will be for some reason. I want to go for the full three weeks, but I don't think the owner would be too happy with that. Maybe I'll just do two weeks, but I feel that's not enough time to spend in a country AT ALL. I'll keep you updated on my trip status. At this point, I have every intention of going. I'm saving the money, I just need the time off, and my doctor's permission. Please pray with me that everything will work out smoothly!

Day 30

If you could choose to believe in Science or religion, which would you choose and why?

I choose God, always, and it's not just because I've grown up in church. There is just too much evidence of his existence. Many scientists now are even supportive of the "intelligent design" theory for the beginning of the universe, of course many will never admit it's God, but I really see it. In my own life too. I don't see Him as just some guy who sits up there watching things play out, he has a hand in everything. He has blessed me and my family so greatly, and give me so many opportunities, like my trip to Japan fer example. I was not supposed to go on the trip, I didn't get the scholarship at first, but we had been praying for God to provide a way for me to go if it was His will, and a few days later we got a call saying someone dropped out last minute, and the scholarship was mine! And other things like that, that are so obviously God things and never would have happened without Him. He has protected me so many times where I could have gotten hurt, or even killed. If I didn't have my faith, I would have nothing. God is so intensely real though, and so awesome.
