Peanut Butter M+M’s

Peanut butter m+m’s sound incredible right now (Hint, hint… my box number at school is 59, if anyone feels led to wipe away the cobwebs with some peanut butter goodness).
I’m so over studying. I’ve got a Business Management test in the morning. I feel more or less ready for it. I’ve studied and memorized the [...]

Sickness and Prayer

It’s so frustrating being sick. I woke up yesterday morning with a really bad cough.. and it’s just progressed from there. Tomorrow is Day of Prayer though, so it’ll be amazing to have an opportunity to rest and sleep.
I would ask for prayer for one of my close friends - her best friend’s mom passed [...]

Bowling and Thoughts

I went bowling tonight with a bunch of people — bowled a 121 my first game and a 133 the second. I was pretty impressed, I’m not going to lie. I think it was the highest cumulative score that I’ve bowled in two games. It was good to get off the mountain for a while.
The [...]

Surrounded Yet Alone

It’s hard feeling alone. I have never understood the feeling of being so alone when you’re surrounded by people… even your own friends. Yet I’m all too familiar with that feeling.
I was talking with a good friend of mine tonight. He’s been feeling a lot of what I’ve been feeling lately - loneliness. I was [...]

Falling in Love

It’s been an encouraging day. I woke up feeling cold, tired, and sick… you know those nights when you fall asleep on your arms (yes, both of them), and then they pretty much become dead weight? That definitely happened to both of my arms twice during the night. And when my alarm finally went off [...]

Cold

So I am sitting here with a sweater, coat, and scarf… and still freezing my royal behind off. I just got back from having waffles at the Anderson’s house. They had a fire going, along with the football game - New York vs. Green Bay. It was nice to just sit in a home and [...]

“Called By God”

I read this in Chambers this morning - it was a hard reminder of the reality that God has called all of us to His work… hard in the sense that my pride and my own desires would prefer to remain in my own comfort zone, rather than stepping out and making myself vulnerable for [...]

Commit Your Way

It’s almost midnight… and I find myself checking emails and facebook once again before heading to bed. I have a daily verse that pops up on my facebook - a new one for each day. Today’s was Psalm 37:5-6…  
Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteousness shine [...]

Restless

I’m restless. My first class doesn’t start until 2:30 this afternoon, and I have finished all the other preparations that had to be done before classes started. I’m ready to get things rolling… It’s been really different being back at school. Every semester changes so much - people change, you change, classes change. It feels [...]

Conviction

God has a way of convicting me at the right time, in the right place, and with the most random things… I’m reading doctrine, and one of the ”effects of sin on our relationships with other humans” is our inability to empathize. I am far too often wrapped up in myself and my own selfishness…
“Do nothing out of [...]
