Note: That title...yeah...who recognizes it? Anastasia...love, love, LOVE that movie...and that song is just stuck in my head...especially that line...it just...suits how I feel right now...
So...yeah...
*sigh*
Whelp.
Here I am.
Smack dab in the middle of a city I'd never thought I'd live in...an hour away from my home and everything I've ever known. Starting college at a school I never thought I'd make it to...
Wow, God...
You sure like to surprise me.
But that's usually a good thing.
Sometimes it's scary as all get out...but usually You turn whatever it is into something grand and beautiful.
Which means You must have something in store for me now. There have been so many surprises today, Abba...so many. Most of them terrifying, gut-wrenching, tear-jerking...just awful. But I trust you, Abba. You've gotten me through so much in the past year...if I didn't trust you, well...then I'd need that spiritual two by four real quick.
My grandma once told me: "Life throws some nasty curveballs, sugar...but God has one heck of a batting arm."
Oh my...just thinking about her makes me miss her...and everyone else back home. Ack, homesickness *grr face* While I am enjoying college life so far, I do miss home. But Saturday will come soon enough.
For now, I'll try to stop my worries so I can concentrate on my new life here...I've already made so many friends and feel at home. Which I thank You for, Abba...You have blessed me.
And now off to a hall party (I love the girls on my hall...I already feel like we've been friends forever). Just what I need...and then class in the morning...hooray for 8 o'clock classes every week...anyways...back to life...
"Come to me, all who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest." - Matthew 11:28
