That's the song that comes to mind right now. When I start to get overwhelmed by this semester, God brings along someone to cheer me up. I came back to school after being home for the weekend and my roommate had the flu, and now I'm getting it, but I'm sure something will happen to keep my spirits up. In fact, something already did, because campus was closed until 10 today. I didn't have to go to my 8:00am modern dance class, which was sad but nice. I still walked over there, not having checked my texts. So sad.
But still, I didn't have to move around.
There are so many things I need to do right now. Everything has homework. All 10 classes have homework. Hours of it. Interesting and good-for-me homework. Long and tedious and tiresome. Songs in foreign languages to memorize, abnormal psychology terms to import into brain, folk songs to learn, scales to write down, work study that involves more work than study, plain-old practicing, and things to mail! (Sorry Mattea, your letter really is coming. Truly.)
Looking on the bright side, I love my new roommate. She makes me tea :) and is very perky and fun. <3
Prayer answered the way I wanted it, haha. Thank You, Lord.
Wednesday is Cornerstone, the young adult Bible study. I'll be playing a Bali instrument named a Gamelan on Thursday night with the world music ensemble class I'm in. Saturday I'll be playing a nursing home gig with some of the music therapy students. So that's me at the moment.
*sigh*
Over and out
in the midst of passing bravery , in the face of our own injuries, is the constant generosity of grace. It's the beauty in the tales we tell, it's the pressing on and ending well , it's the joy that comes when we give our self away ~Sara Groves
Ten classes? I thought you said you were never going to do that again? ;)
ReplyDeleteSorry you're getting sick... that's no fun. Modern dance sounds interesting though, and tea always makes things better :)
I second Andrew's comment--I am so sorry you got sick! Hopefully it isn't so bad anymore. And please don't feel bad about the letter :).
ReplyDeleteThis is the verse I've been repeating this week...Zephaniah 3:17:
"The Lord your God is in your midst,
a mighty one who will save;
he will rejoice over you with gladness;
he will quiet you by his love; [my favorite part]
he will exult over you with loud singing.
*squirms* I have 2 less credits from last semester! That should count for something, right?
ReplyDeleteI'm still sick. Or rather I'm actually sick this time. It went away last time but came back Saturday. It's not too bad.
Do you both still have snow? We have about a foot now. Everyone is so excited. : D
Wow you have a foot? I think that is what we have too, maybe just a few inches more.
