Table Rock

If you are ever in the Treasure Valley in the early morning or after dark, you will see a huge cross that is all lit up in the mountains. This cross is know as Table Rock. Just below the foothills is a flat plateau that you can drive up to, hike around, and sit and watch some amazing sunsets. Joe and I made it up to Table Rock the other day just in time for the sunset which is one of my favorite things to see!

I thought this was a cool picture of my car and the back side of the cross
A verse comes to mind when I think about this place and these special moments that I shared with myself and Joe when we were there. It is a verse that my dad has referred to many times and I really never completely and who heartily understood the meaning until now...
"And we know that in all things God works for the good and those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." --Romans 8:28
This verse touches me because God has really blessed me with this move to Idaho. I came here out on a limb, no job, hardly any money, huge student loans, but God leading my path. Now I have a job that I love, an amazing boyfriend, amazing friends, soccer, and a dream to get my masters in teaching. I do miss my friends and especially my family from back home, but right now I can honestly say I am truly happy with where I am in my life.
