mmm
today was a pretty weird day. Walked to class feeling super pumped, like I could own anything, like I could take on the world, like I was fully equipped for anything that life decided to throw at me. I was filled with the idea that every thing that I did was to glorify God. Walked back, reminded of bad things of the past. Went to meetings, pretty pumped for actually going out to the events. Talked to a friend about bitterness, realized how far I’ve come since I first arrived and how I really want to help those who are lost even though I’m still lost myself. Received a shrine of food upon my return to my room, it was beautiful. Went to another meeting, seamlessly integrated, I felt right at home planning events. Sigh, if only I could for life. Went back, another meeting, so many events going on everywhere all the time, it really is super difficult to keep track of everything. I realized just how many different student groups they try to cater to here. It’s awesome. Went to a desolate house meeting, though looking forward to many events. Walked in the wrong direction, but it was a cool conversation. Went to celebrate a birthday, someone I have come to appreciate a lot lot lot since I got here. God has truly blessed me and He is most defs working through you to touch all those around you (even though you’ll probs never see this). Came back, tried to do some work. Just chillaxin in the room with a few others, I’m content kitty that rumbles. Hit a bump, thought I dealt with it better than usual. Using those words, trying to communicate. People aren’t mind-readers. Somewhere in between all of this, my phone is once again out of commission.
Weird random update on life. Really no need to read it at all, but I just want to say that today was a day of appreciation, of thankfulness. Today was a day of really seeing everything here and trying my best to take it all in stride, to keep in mind all the advice of being patient and sticking it out.
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Colossians 3:15-17
All for Your glory.
