Jesus and Gelato

My friend Beka, whom I know from Thailand, went back to Cali this morning. She's on break from school at the Air Force base in Monterey and amazingly came here to spend a few days with me! I've been really stressed out from training to be a server since last Monday and I felt horrible for needing to study while she was here. She was really gracious though! Finally last night she and I were able to go out into downtown and just hang out. We walked around for a while and then walked into Powell's to ask about a gelato shop I'd seen before (but couldn't remember where). Then we went and ate the worlds BEST gelato, ever! I got a cone with a scoop of mango and one of hazelnut. YUM! If you're ever in Portland, go to Mio Gelato on 11th and Burnside, it's the best.
Jesus is really awesome...
He got me a good job which will pay for school.
He's brought me to a place where people love God with more than just Sunday, and brought me some really good relationships at PBC.
He has given me a good friend at work.
He is so patient with me as I remember again that He is great and will not allow my foot to stumble.

I want to live somewhere (after school) where I am challenged to meet people's physical needs (the inner city). I don't think it matters where though...
