What Doesn't Kill You Hurts Like Hell...But It Doesn't Kill You.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

February 7 - Light Ahead


Trust and be not afraid. Life is full of wonder. Open child-trusting eyes to all I am doing for you. Fear not.

Only a few steps more and then My Power shall be seen and known. You are, yourselves, now walking in the tunnel-darkness. Soon, you yourselves shall be lights to guide feet that are afraid.

The cries of your sufferings have pierced even to the ears of God himself – My Father in Heaven, your Father in Heaven. To hear, with God, is to answer. For only a cry from the heart, a cry to Divine Power to help human weakness, a trusting cry, ever reaches the Ear Divine.

Remember, trembling heart, that with God, to hear is to answer. Your prayers, and they have been many, are answered.

"Before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear." Isaiah 65:24

These are good things to keep in mind. I need this Lent to get my religion back on track, you could say. I guess I'm not as 'grown' as I thought. In fact, I've reverted, but that can be good, in some ways. Maybe. It all depends on how you use what you're given. And I've been given a lot, and that's really a blessing. I am still quite blind, though. I need help seeing the obvious, finding the not so obvious and ... well, that's enough vagueness for one post.

Graduate school research is terrifying. I’m waiting to hear back on a REALLY big summer opportunity. Birthday in nineteen days and then I'll be a legal beagle. Yeah, I went there. >.>

Business all around my life! I was going to type out everything that I've been up to but I changed my mind because:

1. Everyone is busy.

2. As much as it drives me crazy, I enjoy it.

3. You're supposed to do things in secret, thus making the reward greater for the soul.

Illness has been abound, too - I'm afraid. It makes me sad. If I'm still feeling awful on Monday I'll need to call the doctor. For now, I'm seeing how well I can duke it out on my own. Bring it, disease!

In other news: new roommate, she's cool. We're pretty cool. We just let each other do our own thing, and such. I feel bad she has a hacking crazy girl with her. I hope I don't cause her to get sick, that would be rude of me, not to mention a lame time had by all. Bob Marley sheet + Postcards +Pretty (not real) Flowers) + Bible Quotes = Decoration Love. Not going to lie, our room is pretty sweet. It was really cool of her to move up here instead of making me go down there. I felt bad but.... well, it's done and there doesn't seem to be hard feelings. Yay!

Come and see South Pacific. Every inch is packed with dynamite. An, um, it's Main Stage. Which is fantastic. Probably the last one Doc E. directs, actually... Hmm. Disconcerting? Maybe a little but such is life.

So that's that and that'll be that, and that's the end of that.
