I can’t believe it’s been five days since I last posted. I’m listening to “Always Enough” by Casting Crowns on repeat as I finish up this blog. It’s lyrics ring are so true and so encouraging. When the world tries to tell me that He is not enough that I need something more to satisfy me, this song reminds me of what and who my complete and eternal satisfaction comes!! PRAISE THE LORD!!! I thank the Lord for giving me excellent word like this. Writing my blog has been awesome for me, and I hope encouraging to others. It’s really allowed me to reflect back on what HE has been teaching me and the little miracles He’s been doing in my life. Like how He somehow manages to take my few loaves of bread and fish of time, and make me completely satisfied! I truly feel a craving a thirsting for His cool refreshing Word, Praise the Lord!! I’m getting so excited as I write this He truly is the best thing that ever and will ever happen to me! He is my all in all, my Everything, and I stand in awe of His kindness, His forgiveness and all knowingness, but yet He still cares about my little needs. I’m awestruck.
On Monday morning Sam, Roxie, Katie, Ashley and I went to the pool before class. We have a new teacher for class and I don’t like her as much as my last teacher, but the class I think is more interesting (the class is about the culture of Costa Rica) than my other class which was grammar. Then Monday night Katie and Roxie came over and my momma tica made us some kind of traditional Costa Rican meal complete with plantains, and my momma tica rented us la diaria de passion which inn English is the Notebook.
Tuesday we took a tour of Café Brit an awesome coffee plantation and we learned all about how coffee is made. It was actually really interesting and fun. Then class and when we got home from dinner we had another person staying with us. He’s a leader of one of the other universities.
Heres a picture of my food!!

Wednesday we got to sleep in and went to cooking class. We make homemade guacamole and plantains with guac and beans sandwich it was sooooooo good. It was my new favorite food. Then after class we headed to San Jose to a restaurant/show. There was a buffet, dancers, creepy weird things with big heads and people dancing in them, and fireworks. O and they told the mc that it was my birthday. And although I tried to protest they told him, and He ended up calling me Miss Georgia the rest of the night, and I got a key lime pie cake. All in all a great night
Today we went to San Jose we went to a museum and the marketplace, and the National Theater. It was so gorgeous and we don’t have class tomorrow; I’m excited about it! Were heading to Montezuma for My Bday!! I’m excited although this will be my first time away from home on my bday I get to see my parents on the 28th. We’re going to Montezuma to the beach and Tortuga Island.
I know I thank all of y’all who are praying for me a lot, but one thing the Lord has taught me about this past year is the power, and importance of prayer. So I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Praise the Lord He is faithful, and I pray the words He has given me have been and are an encouragement to others.
Here are a few pictures
