Back in the saddle again...
I’m wiped out, but I have a lot to be thankful for! One relationship that has been very stressful lately was recently resolved! PRAISE THE LORD!! And it was truly all the Lord! I wrestled with my heart and my attitude… What to do? What exactly am I waiting for? Even the morning the resolution was made, I was talking to Will about how frustrated and hurt I was over the whole thing. I’m so grateful to have this behind us! Of course, things will be different now but I can take that as it comes as long as I know there is goodwill between us!
I’m still not motivated to do my homework and I’m bored at work. I have been working on other things (a budget for the wedding, keeping my name clear from the collection agencies [checks are circulating again], working with officers again [I finally was able to complete the itemized list of the articles stolen] and the Sergeant said he’d talk to the Deputy I’ve been talking too…).
Spring Break was good and the best time to have my wisdom teeth extracted. I also had a strange feeling when I became aware of the fact that another Utah team was on its way. Since I left campus as a student and surrendered my leadership responsibilities, of course it’s been going without me… But this time as a student, it felt different to know about it. One of the girls in my Hermeneutics class was talking about how nervous she was and requesting prayer. I remember those days! Days when you had to assure the team that they knew more than they thought they did, and that it will be difficult, but they were ready! Eager to see what God would do and, while I was a leader, nervous that something terrible would happen. But God always amazed and protected us!
Speaking of Mormons, Will ran into another set of missionaries in his neighborhood a few weeks ago and we had our first meeting last Sunday. It was kind of funny because my Hermeneutics project is targeting the Mormons (I’m supposed to repackage the material we learned in class to the group we work with the most) and based on how they read their Bibles, I have a lot to “teach” them. But it has encouraged me to consider a new approach. Maybe we could talk about HOW to study the Bible. After all, if we teach a man to fish, he can fish for a lifetime. And it will be their decision to pursue ignorance after that….
We’re running another race this weekend, Will still has to determine where, but he’s excited and that makes me happy. That means that I have to train this evening after class and at least once more this week before Sunday.
Well, that’s about it on my end. Are you bored too?
