Awesome Verse(s) of the Day

But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”
--Matthew 1:20-21

After the competition, I went to small group for our last meeting of the year. We had a potluck and gift exchange! Lots of fun! Love my extended family :)

I ended up getting peanut butter filled pretzels. But the gift I had before was pretty cool -- it was a CD by shai linne called "The Atonement". While it got stolen from me, my super awesome small group friend lent it to me for the week to listen to :) Stoked!
