31days // Hope Spoken Link Up

Since this whole series was prompted by a conference, I think the Hope Spoken link up totally fits in my 31days! ;)

Today, I'll be linking up with my fellow conference attendees, and sharing a little bit about myself! If you're new here at Sweet Home Santa Barbara, hello! I'm Amy.

I'm a 24 year old California girl, working as a financial analyst, blogging my nights away, and lovin' Jesus 24/7. He came and changed my life, and now I can't help but life the rest of it for Him. 

The thing I am probably most nervous about for the weekend is asking for the time off work. I know it will be fine, but I'm kiiind of worrying over the fact that I'll be taking two weeks off in January for this. Once I get that part over with, it'll be all excitement from there!

Speaking of excitement, I am sooo looking forward to reuniting with some amazing friends (like Annie & Kerrie) and excited to meet some brand spankin' new friends, too!

What I am most hoping to bring back from the conference is a better understanding of the love of Jesus Christ. I hope to feel refreshed while I'm there, have those tense shoulders relax a little bit. I can never fully grasp just how good our God is, so I hope to come back thinking to myself "dang, He's even better than I thought!"

And something fun/random about me is that I have the goal to visit all 50 states. I'll be crossing off Texas at Hope Spoken! Woo hoo!

Happy Humpday, loves!
