Come on Dbacks!

I have been failing miserably at finding time to write posts, obviously!

Life has been fairly busy these first few weeks of my internship. I have now completed three weeks out of eight (almost half way!), and it is still going very well. I love the people I work with, and I love the patients more. They are still teaching me alot, both about physical therapy and about life. Today I read this verse in the Bible:

"Even though the outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal." 2 Cor. 4:16-18

and I can really see that in certain patients. Though their outward body is perishing quickly, inwardly they are being renewed day by day as a result of their relationship with Christ. They have their eyes on the eternal, which far outweighs the temporary external. It is awesome.

In other news, I visited my family in Phoenix last weekend for Labor Day! I shared pictures of Europe with them and we saw the Dbacks come back to crush the Cardinals in a fantastically exciting game at Chase Field on Monday! Now if only they could get some bite going tonight (as they are currently getting SCHOOLED by the Dodgers in a really important game)! Everyone think good thoughts.


In the near future, I have much more interning and much more capstone writing to look forward to! I am also going to the wedding of a great friend in Salt Lake City, and I will hope to enjoy fall as it is basically UPON us here in Flag! Temps have been in the 40's when I go to work in the morning. Brrr!

Hope you are all well. Have a good weekend!
