Life has been filled with homework and papers these past few weeks. School has gotten busier and busier as the semester has progressed. I guess, it was the calm before the storm before the first few weeks. It was similar to Moody. I just left the library after working on some terms for church history (I've got a mid-term on Wednesday) and some reading as well. I'm going to call my friend from back home at around 2:00 so I can complete my 2nd interview for my Human Development Class.
Anyways, enough of school talk.
I've lately been seeing such a striving and longing in my heart for obedience and surrender. The Lord is showing me what that truly means, and how it is a difficult thing sometimes. I know that is what the Lord requires of me is my obedience and submission to Him. I long for that daily and am pursuing that with all my heart. I am thankful that God is a God who is faithful and does not give up on us. Amen to that?
It looks like Thanksgiving and Christmas are almost around the corner. That is hard to believe! This year is the first year I won't be going home for Thanksgiving, but I'll be there for Christmas for sure. I do miss my friends back home and pets of course. I'm making friends and connections here, so that is a good thing.
