Life is absolutely kicking my butt right now haha. This isn't to say that I'm too discouraged really.. I have confidence that all will be well and I've still got the joy joy down in my heart. But you know how sometimes you'll be going through life and just enjoying the smoothness of it all and then the next minute everything seems crazy, chaotic and out of control? That's been the story of my week. The thing is I can't even complain.. okay, that's a lie.. I can and I have been complaining a lot haha.. but I don't have reasonable grounds to complain. All of the craziness that has me stressing out are all such small things... small things that contribute to a bigger blessing. I'm stressed about my school load for next year.. but then I think how privleged I am to get a college education and be graduating hopefully next may. I'm disappointed over my summer plans not turning out how I had wanted.. but then in a way I feel relieved to get another summer around home before I go off into the world (haha). I stress over the upcoming volleyball season and all of the changes and unknowns.. but then I'm just so thankful I have the opportunity to play at all. I worry about failed relationships (ha).. but then I'm grateful just for the friendships. I dwell on past mistakes, and regrets and a life filled with sin.. but then I'm drawn to the cross and reminded of redemption. Sometimes life doesn't go as we plan.. sometimes the little things blind us to the bigger picture.. sometimes life just flat out kicks our butt, ha..
Father, through it all You are good. Thank you for weeks like this that keep our hearts yearning for Heaven.
