1 down...

4 more to go! Papers that is. Plus finals, lots of those coming up. I haven't been as faithful to this blog as I was when I first started. I've got a lot going on right now! I'm slightly distracted. A good distracted that puts a smile on my face despite all of these stupid stresses. A peaceful distraction that I can't get enough of. Less than one month and I will be home and hitting the books once again so this distraction is nice. So basically although it may be "summer," it is in fact not summer for me until July 24th. But I'm keeping my head up. I've got alot to smile about.
The other day I was praying while I was vacuuming. Random I know. But I was praying nonetheless and thanking God for the ability to be able to vacuum. The fact that I have a house that I can vacuum, that I have legs and arms to push it, and that I have the comfort of a clean house. It kind of hit me that there aren't people that can thank God for giving them the privilege to vacuum their house. So random right? I know I am. But seriously, kind of a humbling thought. I've also been asking God lately what made him choose me to receive all of these blessings? Why am I so special? I'm not sure, and I don't think that I'll ever be able to understand God's reasoning behind all of it but I'm thankful nonetheless. Lately I've been finding good in every situation and I'm being quite an optimist. It's been lovely. I've also got this new passion in me to find a ministry that I can pour some time into. I know when I'm home I have VBS and I'm SO EXCITED for that! Along with some summer time fun with the youth :) And while here I have Campus Crusade, but I mean something in the future. It doesn't have to be now, but I want to do something with the blessings and talents that I have from the Lord. I want to change lives and change them for Him. I'm ready and excited to see how God is going to use me next fall and semesters to come with Crusade! I'm on a wonderful journey, a wild ride, and I can't get enough.
