How Beautiful!!

"How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news..." Isaiah 52:7

"I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth." Genesis 9:13

How amazing is our God!! I came back yesterday from my trip to Asia, where these pictures were taken (in China). It was amazing to see the beauty that God has created and his power!

I most likely won't post more pictures on the trip, but if you want to see more, you can go to Jon Hartzler's or Benjamin Yoder's FB pages.

I hope you've enjoyed these and can praise God with me!!

Living Fountain

The words of the godly are a life-giving fountain;

the words of the wicked conceal violent intentions.

Proverbs 10:11 (NLT)

A Bridge

between then and now...

My, where have we been the last month?! You would think our lives are so boring we have nothing to post. On the contrary, the time since our last post has been full of good things worth remembering and recording (thus the bridge between the last post and this one).

-Chris completed his first year of college at NYU Poly with great grades to boot (proud of him!)

-We celebrated Chris' birthday among others and our parents' anniversaries. Chris grilled yummy steak and chicken for a few of his family and friends on his birthday.

-Traveled to IN for my niece's baptism and to upstate NY for a friend's wedding

-We undertook a semi major reorganizing project at work and enjoyed it

-and...Drumroll, please...Chris and I celebrated one year of dating at the end of May!! God has been so good to us! Perhaps you will see pictures of these events and perhaps you won't. :) [Credit goes to Central Park for the bridge pictured] Regardless, I want to constantly remember the goodness of the Lord! ~Raquel

Ventures after my exam.

Yes, that's right -- I'm currently in exams right now. Had some time so I decided to head across the Brooklyn Bridge and took this picture in a little city park with my new phone [yes, I finally have a phone, too. :) ].

I hope you enjoy these wanderings of our lives.
