Good morning!


It's my third day here and I'm loving it. Meeting my nephew was so precious! He is so adorable and is actually quite a good baby! Yesterday sister and I went to the beach- it was so hot that the sand was burning. The water is so unbelievably clear that even if you go in up to your waist you can still see your toes. And no- I did not see any sharks. I am disappointed that I haven't seen any kangaroos yet but hopefully that will change soon. Today we are planning to go to one of our favorite cafes for breakfast and then hit the shops and hopefully send some postcards back to the PNW. It's taking time to adjust to the schedule because the sun rises so early, today I managed to sleep in until 6am! It is so beautiful here and I am loving my trip. Hope you guys are having an awesome time in your preparations for Christmas.

I have exactly the life that I pictured I would and the life that I wanted and planned for. Along the way I had a lot of hardships, but ultimately God still gave me what I wanted. What is baffling for me is that the devil can give me so much doubt and discontentment even in situations that I know are right for my life. I realized that there won't be a moment in my life where I will be perfectly content and be absolutely happy about every aspect in my life- not without a fight at least. Reading this book has showed me how actively I have to fight every day to stay alert and listen to the voice of God and tell myself truth instead of listening to the lies that the devil tries ...
