Putting it all together

Tonight has been the first night in a long time that I've had a chance to take a break from the stress of homework. And that's a great thing considering I basically bombed my Calculus quiz this morning. :-/

While I was mostly just planning on being lazy and surfing the internet, I instead got the chance to contact a lot of different people.



I had a long conversation with a few good friends back home.

I talked with my roommate about Christianity, Islam, and politics. And it was a pleasant discussion.

Another friend back home texted me, and we had a nice conversation about faith, trust, and not overworking yourself. 

I had a nice dinner talk with a few of my sousie friends.

I talked to my mom on Facebook and was really open about the struggles I've been having this week. I miss her so much...

A high school friend who I haven't seen in a long time texted me too, and it was nice to catch up.

I even chatted with a few people on my floor about "What superpower you would have if you could have one." (Yes, we're nerds.)



Today has opened my eyes to how many people God is constantly placing in my life. Even when I doubt him, don't place my trust in him, or underestimate his ability in general, he loves me anyway. This morning started off really bad (I was even in tears after taking my quiz), but as I sit here now, I'm feeling more content than ever. Is it a temporary feeling? Likely. I can't seem to go more than a few hours in college without getting stressed out... but it's a great feeling.

And these relationships and discussions are the things that I really need to hold on to.
