Loving God

This week has been amazing. God has been teaching me much about loving him. All summer God was showing me areas in my life that i loved more than him...and this week was a spiritual gold mine for me. Will Galkin preached in chapel and during the evening revival services and God pointed out even more areas that i didnt show my love for him in. i have heard my whole life that "actions speak louder than words". My mouth was saying "i love Christ", "I want to serve the Lord", and in some instances my actions were coinciding with that. however, it doesnt matter what your actions and lips say if you do not have a right heart. the church is full of hypocrites, and i dont want to be one of them!
Also, i am thoroughly enjoying my classes (although i decided that i have discovered the priviledge of directed studying too late in my college career). Each class is about something completely different - which definitly helps the boredom factor. i think my favorite class is going to be principles of Bible study. i've already learned tons about how to more effectively study God's Word and it's only been 2 class periods!
NEWSFLASH! im not afraid of guys anymore. i'm not quite sure why - maybe it's because i'm in my last semester and am never going to see them again anyway? i dont know, but i act like a dork in front of them...and dont care!
Bob is living on campus this semester. everyone is asking me if i miss him- even mrs. gordon in the dean's office! of course i miss him! however, i think we get along better when we dont live together (arent all siblings like that?) i must admit, it is sorta nice living by myself. i moved the furniture, took up all the closet space, and know exactly where everything is. No closet space or love sac could replace bob, but it is nice to know he is still around. i love him tons, and living on campus is important to him and he loves it, and seeing him happy makes me smile:)

Jen, I wish I could have made it to the meetings. They sounded so applicable!
I will be in again someday soon and will explain why I have not been there, haunting you yet, with my two angelic wonders. :-)
Enjoy having your place to yourself!
