Thoughts of the Day

     If male animals mark their territory by urinating on it then female humans mark it by cleaning it.  "Sorry for stepping on YOUR nice clean floor Anni."
     I really want to work on having deeper conversations with my friends and family.  I want to talk about God with people but for some reason I have been holding back.  I want to ask my friends at ICC how they have been doing spiritually because I really want to know.  I want to know what to pray for when I pray for them or I want to hear their stories of how God has shown them love.  Lord, help me step out of my comfort zone.  At the Peoria YG Christmas party Tim Funk talked about how we are supposed to "share Christ."  He might have meant to people who don't know Christ but I think we need to work on sharing Christ amoung ourselves as well.

The Davidovics Christmas/Thanksgiving

      So last weekend my family (Rebekah and Brian included) made a six hour drive to Indiana where we stayed from late (really late) Friday night to Sunday around 10:45.  We were in a cabin that was on the river that boarders Indiana and Kentucky.  This may sound very quaint and lovely but let me tell you the real story:
     The sleeping arrangements were as follows:

Downstairs Bedroom #1:
  •   Sandor, Rachel, and Zsofi on a bed
  •   Irma and Evi (bed)
  •   Aunette and Zoli (bed)
Downstairs Bedroom #2:
  •   Mom and Dad (bed)
  •   Rebekah and Brian (bed)
  •   Ryan and Steven (bed)
Upstairs Master Bedroom:
  •   Jozsef, Tina, and Coby (bed)
Living Room:
  •   Csilla (futon)
  •   Kinga (air mattress)
  •   Me (futon)
     The only people who didn't either have a really loud snorer or a crying baby in their room was Downstairs Bedroom #1.  God really blessed me when he made me a deep sleeper.  It was a fun weekend though.  Saturday I woke up around 7 or 8.  The guys made breakfast then we went on a walk on the road.
     After that I started to climb up the hill in the woods with my Bible to have a devotion.  I made it pretty far when Dad called up to me and asked if I wanted someone to climb with.  By the time he reached me I had made it to the base of a small cliff.  So we climbed it together.  The slat-like rocks would break off and fall if you weren't careful.  It was a challenge and tons of fun!
     Monday a rash showed up on my hands.  I am assuming its poison Ivy.  It has been affecting my sleep so it just crossed a major line.  But I think it's on the mend so I can forgive it.
     After we got home Mom and I went for a walk.  I was so tired and feeling down that I cried.  Lord bless her, she listened to me and I felt so much better.  I think I was just feeling supper anti-social.  I haven't seen some of my friends in months.  And Rebekah and Brian were very couple-y which is great for them.  I'm glad they are happy but I felt out of the loop and awkward.  It also felt like my single state was being rubbed in my face and that made me discontent.  It didn't help at all that the Reinhards phones have been down.  It's been weeks!  I am now in the habit of trying to call them every time I pick up my phone.  Seriously I have been trying at least three times every day!
     Anyway it really was a fun trip and I only have two days of school left!  I can't wait to have enought time to clean my room, cook, clean the house, decorate, get a tree, and PLAN THE COLORADO TRIP!!!
     Well I am finished.  God bless you all!
