sobering thoughts...

My mind feels more...hmm...different. Wow, I'm really good at expressing myself. hahha. I've become much more sober (figuratively speaking), and able to focus and concentrate much better than last term. Which is a great thing, because these next 3 months will prove to be the most heinous amount of work I've got to do for school. My Feb+Mar. calendar is marked up with 13 deadlines for projects/presentations/research papers, and 6 mid-terms. But I know the Lord is gracious, and He has taken away those time-wasting, unnecessary thought processes, so that I can handle the load.

I'm so thankful that our ACF retreat was bumped up a week, so that I have a bit of a breather before throwing myself into some crazy times. Retreat btw was AMAZING! God really spoke to my heart, and have answered so many of our prayers. I always used to wonder what would happen to ACF when we graduated and left....but I see a bright future for this continually growing family...and we don't have to worry one bit...as He is faithful and will fulfill His promise. PTL. :o)

Trust here is the lesson.

As I wait for Cora to show up and head back to school in a mid-night drive...I'm sitting here and reflect on my past month. God has been so good and gracious. *sigh* :) 2005 was a great year, but I'm sure 2006 will be even better! My Christmas vacation at home has been creme de la creme. I think I did everything that I possibly wanted to do....and then some. From seeing old faces to new faces, constantly eating, sleeping in, snowboarding, working with my sis' wedding plans...more on that later!
