cor.us.ca.tion (ˌkɒrəˈskeɪʃən) -- a sudden flash of light; sparkle; scintilate; gleam

I was fascinated with this word after reading the above quote from C. S. Lewis. What a marvelous thought that God gives us glimpses of His image on this earth by "coruscating" Himself in our daily lives. The purpose of this blog is to "coruscate" Him back "with radiant face;" to "reflect in flashes" who He is by praising Him for His work in my life.

The fellowship of believers is one of God's richest blessings. If anything I write here points you to Christ, or sheds the slightest glimmer of light along your path, then all the Glory belongs to God! Thanks for reading, and may the Father richly bless you!

Glorify the Lord with me, let us exalt his name together. I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. Psalm 34:3-5

Back in Budapest

After a fantastic week in Wisla I am so happy to be back in Budapest. The time in Poland was such a joy. Worship, fellowship, time with the missionaries, crazy VBS with the MKs. It was such a special a coming together of the body from so many different places. I couldn't help but think of the line from "Blest be the tie that binds" that says "the fellowship of kindred minds is like to that above." I wascso glad to be a part of a very talented and giving team from ECBC. Everyone did their jobs as unto the Lord. I was especially impressed with the hearts of out High School team. So precious to hear them praying for the MKs the last night. They definitely are going for it with the Lord. If only I had been on fire like that at their age! Humbling indeed.










I returned to Diosd on Sunday with Mike and Terry and had the pleasure of attending an evening service at a new church called "The Forum." We sang in Hungarian (can you believe it!!) and English, heard a message in English and got to spend time discussing God's Word and the Christian walk with two Hungarian students, Viktor and Zoli, and a Swedish med student named Andreas. So cool! Such an exciting work beginning there and so much potential for a big impact on the city. Loved the atmosphere of dialogue and sharing. Had my first palacsinta -- yummy Hungarian crepes filled with cheese. Definitely want to try those at home.

Today I went with my friends Karen, Abby and Chloe into Budapest. We had yummy gulyas (goolash!) for lunch, saw the central market where fruits, vegetables, meats, and many other wares are sold. It's an amazing place, and the building is 100+ years old. The roof is entirely covered with beautiful tiles.


We also saw the memorial to the Jews from Budapest who died in the Holocaust. It is stirring to see all of those shoes lined up along the Danube and think of the many people represented by this memorial.





What lovely day with dear friends. Blessings abound, and I am so grateful.
