Show me how to love like You have loved me
Break my heart for what breaks Yours
Everything I am for Your kingdom's cause,
As I walk from earth into eternity.

Today I'm thankful for my roommate, Jenna Lee! =) She is a genuine Christian, kind, creative, and a fellow INFJ personality type, which is a rare find! This means we're both social introverts who feel things deeply and sometimes confuse ourselves trying to figure out our life purpose. We're also both sharers, so the first time we got together for lunch, we were at the restaurant for over four hours. Since then, we've had some great talks at almost every Starbucks across Tulsa as we moved through the Unashamed Bible study, lots of kitchen conversations while me and Tyler watch her cook before we start the Financial Peace DVDs, and a couple of late night banana bread talks. ;-)
In addition to being a legit silversmith, organizational genius, event planner, awesome country dancer, and handywoman (probably not a real term, but I'm impressed by all that she knows how to do), she is also a great chef... in the last three days alone, she's made chocolate peanut-butter cookies, carrot cake, spinach-stuffed chicken, butternut squash, non-Kraft mac & cheese, baked apples, and the red velvet cake in the picture above (not all of that was just for us, to be clear). There have also been tacos, enchiladas, broccoli salad, parmesan chicken, chili, soup, etc. (All of it gluten free and still tasty - who knew!?) On a more serious note, I love that she prioritizes her walk with God and that we sharpen each other spiritually and have some similar goals and schedules that work well together... so I am grateful for Jenna!! (And obviously, I am also grateful for food! lol)

"But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says 'Do not be afraid!'
The voice of truth says, 'This is for My glory!'
Out of all the voices calling out to me,
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth!"
