I am now back at Clemson and re-settled into my lovely apartment. Sadly, Laura and Sara are not here, but it has been really fun getting to know Hannah and Alison. In Clemson, I am much more disciplined. I think it has to do with being back in my own space and having a place for everything in that space. It's so nice!!
I am, however, so ready for classes to start. I am bored!! I want work. Today I even broke open the software that came with my anatomy book and began doing the online lectures. I love the human body--what an awesome creation!!
I am so content with where the Lord has me this year--the place of duty is indeed the place of blessing. I have finally stopped pushing against the Lord's will--I am not dating, I am not going to PA school a year early, I am not working, I am not taking on extra coursework. I feel as though the door to every strong desire I had this summer has been slammed in my face. And now that I have stopped pushing I am content. I know that the Lord has better things in store for me than what I wished for this summer. His will is perfect. His plan is perfect.
"If I could have the world and all it owns, a thousand kingdoms, a thousand thrones. If all the earth were mine to hold, with wealth my only goal. I'd spend my gold on selfish things without the love that your life brings just a little bit more is all I'd need 'til life was torn from me. . . But if I trust the One who died for me, who shed His blood to set me free, If I live my life to trust in you, Your grace will see me through."
