I wish I had a clever title!

Once upon a time,

Kristin had math homework that she ignored... haha! That was the story of my day yesterday, blowing off homework. That just means that today I have a lot to get done, especially since I have a speech due on Friday... Maybe I should start that.


Anyway, God is so clever. He has such crazy ways of teaching us. I have been stressing about the fact that I hadn't been accepted to LT yet and everyone else (even people who applied way later than I did) were being accepted. I was kind of frustrated because then I didn't know what was going to happen this summer and it was just confusing because I really felt like God wanted me to go to LT. Finally, I just couldn't worry any longer and I put my full trust in God that he would put me where he needed me the most this summer and yep, you guessed it! I got an e-mail last night saying that I had been accepted into the LT program. So that means two things. I am SO excited to see how I am going to grow with God and the other people around me and I'm going to be in Colorado for the summer! That's nuts! I am beyond excited.

One of my friends is struggling with the fact that her and her boyfriend are not at the same place spiritually. I totally get it. It's tough when you really care about someone and have invested a lot into that person and suddenly, you are not on the same page. It's probably one of the hardest decisions a person will have to make. It just sucks because you want to stay with that person and "change" them through your relationship but that's not how it's supposed to work. Both of you have to be whole on your own before you can have a relationship. Even more important, one of my friends said this and I love it, "You should be praising God  by loving that person" That is an amazing concept. Absolutely incredible. There's a great quote that says "A girl should be so lost in God that a man needs to seek Him in order to find her." That's what I want. I'm not going to compromise because I know that is what God wants for me, a fully fulfilling relationship with one person that I can be myself with. And through that relationship, we can praise God! Sweet! I'm so excited for when I know for sure who this person is!

Well. That's all I have for now. Small group is tonight so I'm sure I will have a lot to talk about after that!

Later!

  1. Wow, you showed me two amazing things in a row. This and that one video about the professor and the chalk. Thank you so much for those; and thanks also for the kind business letter back at that facebook event.
