Hello friends! So sorry about my lack of posts recently. I have been trying to adjust to my new schedule and it has taken its toll on me! Ha Ha! I really can't complain because my school schedule is not that bad and the hours I work are totally flexible its just that I got really spoiled over the summer! However, I have decided to focus on the positives of my schedule change rather than the negatives! I am also ashamed to admit that I have not taken one single picture since school started... how pathetic is that! I hope once I get back into my routine I will be able to pick that back up.
As far as my classes go everything is great! I love my professors and my classmates. All of my classes are very small and I pretty much have the same people in all of them which is nice. I have gotten to know several them over the past year so that alone makes the classes fun. Plus, it helps when you find the classes themselves interesting.
Another positive change that has taken place since school started is that I have actually gotten into the habit of having a quiet time every morning before work/school. I am so NOT a morning person so I never thought I could actually do this. I have always known how important quiet time with God is but I have never been disciplined enough to make myself get up early and do it. A few weeks ago on during Wednesday night service we were watching a video clip on Marraige and the man talked about how he and his wife always have their alone time with Jesus even before they say good morning to one another. He said it is important for us to "fill up" with His love and power because we "leak it out" on others throughout the day. If we don't fill up each morning then we have nothing to leak out. This was a great image for me to picture to help get me motivated. He alse discussed how love is only good as a fresh commodity. Meaning that it needs to be shown every day. He gave the example of how sometimes husbands tend to do something nice for their wife and hope that it will keep her happy for a certain amount of time before he has to do it again. I am guilty of sometimes having this mentality in my relationship with Christ. I have enjoyed thinking about how every morning I am making Jesus happy by showing him how much I ove him that day! Plus I get to receive a fresh amount of love from Him as well!
I hope this makes sense... I am kinda tired and just wanted to share some things that were on my heart! I pray everyone has a blessed week!
