Today was a great day. . . and yet tonight my soul feels weary. Perhaps it's because I have not talked to anyone in my family or because I am physically exhausted or because I know that tomorrow I have to go to the library and study organic or because I realized tonight that it is highly likely that I will go through college dateless or because I just want to sit and soak in Jesus without my stupid sin getting in the way or because I really just want bed now but I need to take a shower first. Whatever it may be, I am down. I will be up again tomorrow I am sure. I am praying that I have a new task at the Free Medical Clinic (perhaps a little more patient interaction?). I am praying that I have good conversation with certain people. I am praying that I sleep hard and fast. I am praying that the Lord would prepare my brain to focus and understand the organic material that I need to study, and also that I could retain it well, too. I am praying that the hours in the library will fly by. I am praying that mom and dad have landed safely in San Fran. I am praying that my heart will be light tomorrow. I am so thankful that I can bear my burdens to the Lord and he is open-armed, ready to accept me no matter how I feel. I am thankful too that this morning I read that my standing in God's sight is not measured by how I feel throughout the day but rather how He sees me in light of the atonement His perfect son made on the cross for my sin.
Good Night to all!
Psalm 121:3-4 "He will not let your foot slip--he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep."
