Mackenzie was sitting across me during breakfast when her face suddenly lit up and she said to me, “Marianne! You distracted me during worship yesterday! (I was back-up singing as Erika lead) You looked SO PRETTY! You were so beautiful!”
Great way to start the New Year :)

I felt closer to one of my best friends back home than I ever have since leaving.
Dina sent me an email on New Year’s Eve. This is what she said at the end of it.
“Tomorrow morning, I am going to watch the first sunrise of year 2011. You should watch it, too. Let’s witness the beginning of a new day together although we are quite far apart now! :)”
And that’s exactly what I did :)

I read a beautiful passage during my personal time with God, and memorised it. I want it to be a big part of my new year :)
“Teach me Your way, O Lord,
that I may walk in Your truth;
unite my heart to fear Your name.
I give thanks to You, O Lord my God,
with my whole heart,
and I will glorify Your name forever.
For great is Your steadfast love toward me;
You have delivered my soul
from the depths of Sheol.”
Psalm 86:11-13
