I chatted with an old RA friend from Green Bay today. Surprisingly, our chat only made me happier not sadder about being an RA here. It's going to be a good year:)

this morning little guy 1 (one of five) was having fits about his belt because i traded it with little guy 2 b/c his wouldn't even fit around his waist and little guy 1 is skinnier. Anyway little guy 1 is having fits for like 20min and finally after trying everything else i told him i could fix his belt magically....and it worked. He let me help him with his belt and get it to fit right....whatnext!!!

Pearls of Wisdom

Proverbs 22:14

The mouth of an immoral woman is a dangerous trap; those who make the LORD angry will fall into it.


....interesting stuff here.....interesting!

longing for love

I've been having a aching in my heart lately, like lead at the bottom of your lungs...I feel that when I read my Bible I go under spiritual attack or something....or maybe it's the the prolonged stress or pressure of the mornings and nights. Maybe just character growing pains. Forgiveness I need to give...bitterness I need to give up. I don't know. On my knees and looking to the Healer for help.

2am ponderings

I think the biggest lesson I've learned so far is that life is a struggle. Whether it's struggling to motivate yourself to read that last chapter before class or the struggle to keep going after you've been emotionally drained. It's been a rough day and a rough couple of weeks. I'm really glad that I have God on my side or I'd be sunk by now.
  One of my friends here was telling today how she doesn't become friends with someone because she needs them. If she's friends with someone, it's because she enjoys spending time with them; they add to her life. I thought that was an interesting perspective. Really the only person we completely and truly need a 100% of the time is Jesus. I've come to realize this more and more each day. He really is a fantastic friend/father/God.
