Comforter

So, my life is pretty crazy. Yep, it is. I am in nursing school. I now have 2 jobs that the Lord has blessed me with. And I'm in the band at my school. I get at 6:30 in the morning and I usually don't get to bed until around 12 or after at night. This is all taking a toll on my body and brain.

I am slap wore out every day of my life it seems like. I'm either exercising my body my walking to class and band or exercising my brain with school and one of my jobs as a tutor. It is becoming quite difficult trying to juggle everything. I feel like I am not seeing or hanging out with any of my friends, probably because I know I'm not! I I am person who loves people and fellowship!! I am not able to go to church like I want to or even go to the Christian events on campus. It is really disappointing to have to miss out on those things. Don't get me wrong, I like being busy. But I think this is definitely my limit. People ask me to do different things and I constantly have to say no. Not because I do not want to, but because I will explode if I take on any more!! Ahh!

I know I have a crazy life, but God loves me anyway. He is my Comforter. I find comfort in His word. Psalm 119:50 reads: "This is my comfort in my affliction, that your word has revived me." He is too good to me. I am the one spending all my time doing all of these other things and I only get to put a lousy amount of time with Him each day. I am not deserving of His love for me, but I am grateful. He is AMAZING!! I should be putting in the time that I'm in class, work, and band and spending it with Him instead! Without God, I would be completely nothing and so would you. I looked up the meaning of the word, "comforter", and this is what is says..
Comforter
1. One that comforts: the nurse as comforter of the sick.
2. Comforter Christianity The Holy Spirit.
3. A quilted bedcover.
4. A narrow, long, typically woolen neck scarf.

Please check out #2! :) God is my Comforter, my very best friend, and my Everything! I know everything is going to be just fine. Jeremiah 29:11-13 and Isaiah 55:8-9. God has a plan and purpose for each and everything. He is going to get me through this semester and the rest of my life. :))

Blessings and Love!

New start...

This is my first post and its late and I need to go to bed so...this is going to be short..lol

Well, I have been doing a lot of thinking here lately about well, everything! There is a lot going on in my life right now. For example: starting the actual nursing program, getting in a rountine of school again, learning my new roommate, dealing with my friends that have left UWA, and numerous other things. I am missing Canada a lot these days. My heart is with those people. And by the way for those who do not know, I spent most of my summer in Vancouver and that is what I am referring to. I am so full of emotions with anything and everything.
One of my best friends/mentor/amazing woman of God is graduating in December and then heading overseas with the journeyman project and she isnt living on campus this semester. I am going to miss her so much! I am protesting against her leaving!! But, she is going to do something that God has called her into and that is amazing. I am proud of her and all she has and is doing.
God is teaching me so many things and I am just utterly amazed that He loves me the way He does. I dont know why because I sure dont deserve any of His love or mercy. Geez..just thinking about this summer and the past whole 5 months..I cant tell you all the things Ive learned about myself, my sin, and my God! I am to give God glory through anything and everything I say, think, and do!
I am off to bed..more to write laterrr...blessings!
