And this was supposed to be my relaxing week!
No Tuesday or Thursday classes this week means that half of all my classes this week were cancelled. So that means it should be easy, nice, relaxing, all that…right? Or not.
It’s a good thing I don’t have any classes tomorrow, cause I’ll be spending all day working on stuff for Friday. I have to do an in-class presentation for Spanish, I have a test in New Testament, and I have a paper due in Philosophy. And of course tomorrow I still have something going on…I’m helping out with a worship set for a girl’s worship ministry class. Should be fun…but it’s becoming more time consuming than I had originally anticipated – one hour yesterday, two today, and three tomorrow.
And honestly, that doesn’t really scratch the surface of how painful and stressful this week has been. Have you ever had something on your mind CONSTANTLY for four or five days in a row? I sure haven’t…but I’m learning how exhausting it is. Pray for me and all the other guys in the duplex – I think we all need it.
One bright spot? Some beautiful song lyrics – (the Newsboys prove they’ve still got it!)
I wanna start it over
I wanna start again
There’s a new beginning
One without an end
I feel it inside
Calling out to me
IT’S A VOICE THAT WHISPERS MY NAME
IT’S A KISS WITHOUT ANY SHAME
SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
LIKE A SONG THAT STIRS IN MY HEAD
SINGING LOVE WILL TAKE US WHERE
SOMETHING’S BEAUTIFUL
I’ve heard it in the silence
Seen it on a face
I’ve felt it in a long hour
Like a sweet embrace
I know this is true
It’s calling out to me
IT’S THE CHILD ON HER WEDDING DAY
IT’S THE DADDY THAT GIVES HER AWAY—FATHER
SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
WHEN WE LAUGH SO HARD WE CRY
OH THE LOVE BETWEEN YOU AND I
SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
I still read your blog. I also still think about driving to Arkansas. Andrew was supposed to call me, but hasn’t. Sometimes I think about calling Andrew.
