"Sundays by the Sea" posts are great to write, and I'm so glad you enjoy reading them. :)<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your thoughts! The Lord is indeed strong to save; He is omnipotent. :D I love the way your word your comments, just like poetry!<br /><br />And I know...I'm amazed that I got to go to Israel, as well! It's crazy and wonderful to think about. :)<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-50662104735451974222010-11-18T22:20:03.105-07:002010-11-18T22:20:03.105-07:00Laura,

There was so much to see, so much to learn, and I loved it! I know you'd love it, too!<br /><br />Oh, and I'm so glad you like the new pages! And thank you for your kind words. *blushing* I don't deserve all that praise...I still get obsessive about my time on blogging, so I can't say deactivating my Facebook account really cut down my time on the Internet. However, it did cut down temptations, drama, and doing mindless quizzes...so, I don't regret my decision. :) Thank you so much for your encouragement! I'm super glad I'm blogging now, and that I have the opportunity to meet wonderful people like you! :D<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-65108622214795607242010-11-18T22:15:12.521-07:002010-11-18T22:15:12.521-07:00Renee Ann,

It's an amazing place to visit!<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-63205902286165124392010-11-18T22:12:50.090-07:002010-11-18T22:12:50.090-07:00Kav,

Peter is definitely someone we can relate to, and there's a lot we can learn from him. :) <br /><br />I'm taking a class called Petrine Epistles this semester, and it has been great studying the epistles he wrote: 1 and 2 Peter. After all of his experiences with Jesus, he had a lot of wisdom to share with the church! <br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-91816264768663860932010-11-14T22:46:37.399-07:002010-11-14T22:46:37.399-07:00Beautiful!

Sunday’s are always my favorite day on your blog, my friend :) This is a powerful reminder to never focus on the “waves” in our life because no matter how big and terrifying they are, the ever-present, outstretched hand of our Saviour is not shortened that it cannot save. Outside our comfort zone is where the hand of Comfort is found and patiently waits to be grasped :)<br /><br />Thank you so very much for sharing this with us! And, I think it is so amazing that you’ve actually been to Israel!! <br /><br />Prayers & Blessings,<br />Amanda StanleyAmanda Stanleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16372107574684016349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-51744531274857337522010-11-14T16:11:03.278-07:002010-11-14T16:11:03.278-07:00Wonderful post, Amber!

I imagine it rearranges your whole perspective of the Bible and our Savior...<br />Your pages are GREAT! Love how you've organized things and all. And I admire you so very much for unplugging from FB like you did. Now that is very inspiring ~ your reasons are so sound! You are a wise young woman.

Peter is my kind of guy -- impulsive, dramatic, determined to throw himself wholeheartedly into everything he does only to fall short and flounder. But as you say, Jesus was right there, ready to save him. I'm very much like Peter, forgetting to stretch out my hand for support before taking that first big step.Kavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719229222267994577noreply@blogger.com
