Indians Game
Daniel and I went to an Indianapolis Indian's game today. I realized today that it has been so hot lately, that we have barely spent any time outside. It was fun to spend the day in the sun (even though it was really hot) and hang out with some friends from church.

Fast Cars and Freedom
This year Daniel and I decided to go see Rascal Flatts at the Indiana State Fair. I have been a fan of theirs since my senior year in high school (just when they were becoming popular) and until saturday, I had never been to a concert of theirs. We had a great time, even if we almost went deaf from the volume of the music. They played almost all of my favorites (they didn't play My Wish). Here are some pictures from the evening.

The best pathway
The Lord says, "I will guide you along the best pathway for your life, I will advise you and watch over you." Psalm 32:8
This week work has been in full swing... sort of. I am back all day every day (sometimes for 12 hour days if you count XC practice after school) but we haven't started teaching yet. We are in a new building which is not completely ready for our move in. The building is beautiful and once it is fully renovated it will make a great school, but right now it is hard to see past the dust, dirt and construction workers. My boss keeps saying "we're getting there," and we keep asking "when?" It has been a trying week to say the least (and it is only Wednesday).
However, in God's great humor and glory he has a lesson in ever thing, and I have just started to understand that lesson. This morning during my quite time, I stumbled across the above verse while reading through Psalm chapter 32.
God in his infinite glory has a plan for me, in everything, and he is leading me on the best pathway for me. At first I took that to mean my future is in good hands, which is true. But I overlooked the truth that this means about the present. I am currently on the best path for me, and God is advising me and watching over me. This means the construction of the school, and this means that God has lead me down this path for a reason.
I feel like my life is a lot like the half done building we are currently trying to move into as a school. I don't know what the next year brings, as Daniel finishes Law school, and I am anxious to know God's plan. God is still constructing my life, and there is a constant presence of dirt and dust that makes it hard to see the final product. However, he has a plan for me, and when the time is right, he will advise me(and Daniel) in his plan. This plan will be perfect, and even better than we could imagine ourselves.
