I'm officially done with my sophomore year and people have been asking me, "Did you have a good semester?" If I'm feeling honest I tell them that it was a difficult semester. Good, but very hard.
In addition to having 3 writing courses for my major, I had two general education courses with lots of reading and my normal 20 hour a week job. Never had I felt the struggle to trust God so keenly.
I honestly struggled with sin found in not having control over my schedule. One of my professors said, "You get emotional easily, don't you?" I had to sheepishly nod yes. I had come to him about getting a "C" on a paper. I guess my face is like a book and this time it read TRAGEDY/HORROR.
Tonight, I joined one of my best friend's small groups and as they were going around asking for prayer I thought I would ask for prayer with reading God's word. Everyone nods when you ask for that request. Who doesn't need help with their quiet time?
When I opened my mouth, though, I talked about the control issues I had been having and how and what I'm going to do. The other women looked surprised but glad for my honesty. Their prayers will be much appreciated.
And, I'm writing this post as a way to keep myself accountable. You, the reader, are joining me on an accountability journey. I will hopefully blog some more this summer even though blogging seems to decrease over breaks...
little side note: Thank you for all the encouragement on my vlogs. I try to understand why my blogs and my vlogs seem so different in tone and texture. I guess that's because they're different sides to my personality. One is not more "me" than the other...I guess different mediums bring out different sides of my personality.:)<-unneeded smiley face...
