Back to the hill

Visiting Boston was such a sweet experience.  I saw many of the citites beautiful buildings and parks.  It was a nice change from NY as Boston offers more peace and tranquility.  I saved myself from walking by taking a bike ride around town, my feet were quite thankful.  The bike system they have is awesome, you can rent them in one corner through an automated machine, and park it at any other bike station around town and continue using it until your time is up. Closed off the night with some delicious burgers and cheese fries.  The next morning, hopped on the bike again and rode off to the bus station.

It was great to return to ZMI and its quietness.  Rushing from place to place and the fast pace of the city, it became easy to forget about God and the fact that He would like to hear from me from time to time.  It was in those moments where the nature He created would leave me in awe that I would usually remember Him.  In contrast, the first thing we did here in ZMI before our little welcoming gathering, was to open up in prayer and worship.  It was so nice to come into His stillness for a change.  We ended the night with pizza, CAKE, and a fogata with some smores.  Despite the near freezing temperature (50*), everything was awesome.  As the night grew darker, the stars shined brighter, a sight rarely seen in miami.  Up on the hill, with no glow from the city, it was easy to appreciate the night sky.

I was a bit saddened to have missed "Exalt," the event my home church "Maranatha," was having on Saturday.  Despite this, I received a good report about the event and so rejoiced, and I am so proud of all those who were participants and helped put it together.
