Yes, I am really still here!
Ok, so trying to ignore how inexcusably long it has been since I last blogged, I shall attempt to jump back into this!
I am enjoying having my sister here for a visit! It's been a bit wet and chilly for her time here thus far, but hey, this is Sweden after all! :)
I love fall in Sweden! Some days it's sunny, lots of days it's rainy - but I love the cool, crisp air and the blowing leaves!
Today Riley and I were playing in the puddles when we were out for a walk in the rain! I had forgotten how much fun it can be! It's amazing how more willing you are to play in the water when fully armed with rain coat and rain boots! :) Ahh, simple joys of life!
Things are going well here in Sweden! I'm plugging away with the studies and it seems to be going pretty well! The class I'm in now goes until the beginning of December and then I can start the next (and final) class in January. It will be so nice to be done with language school!
We started our ladies' Bible study several weeks back. We meet at my place every other Tuesday night. It's a great time of Bible study and fellowship! And it's been really good for me as I've done the lessons all in Swedish! That's a huge answer to prayer! I was so scared for that first Bible study - but God certainly helped me. And the ladies are a huge encouragement to me!
This past Tuesday was exciting as we had both English speaking/Swedish speaking folks - so one of the other girls translated for me! It's so exciting having visitors!
Riley continues to be a great pal! He is so good with the kids around here - and he just enjoys exploring the world around him! We love to go on long walks in the woods together!
I have to take him to the vet tomorrow, though. I think the poor little guy has an ear infection. Poor little guy! :(

Go ahead and grab your umbrella, because in life, there will be times when you journey through the storms. You see, in this world in which we live, the rains will fall. That is a guarantee. Trials will come - and they are going to come to everyone. Just because you are a Christian, don't think for a moment that life is going to be easy. There will still be pain, sorrow, and heartache. The good news, however, is that, as a Christian, you do not have to weather these storms alone. You have a solid foundation in Christ.
