A long absence

After a long absence I will continue to write. The past month and a half has been more hectic, more demanding, and more heart-changing than any time since I became a Christian. I praise God for the way that he has worked through sadness and disaster to bring glory to his name. He has been good to me, good to my church, and good to my campus. The Lord is faithful and good. All of his words are true. Scripture is powerful. The gospel can change hearts. Praise God.
This semester only has two more months and then I will face an undecided summer. Centrifuge and the nine dollars an hour for forty hours a week that I was looking at was cancelled. I feel free to do whatever I want and that is a good feeling. Money will not be as good anywhere else. Oh well.
Friends have been very good to me during this time and they deserve thanks. I need to write thank you letters. Someone paid for my van window which was blown out by the pressure of the tornado. I did not need it more than others but they wouldn't let me give it back to them and I was thankful for their kindness. Other friends have sent their encouragement throughout everything and I treasure those words.
I will have more to write I am sure. I have needed to write for a while and been too tired or too drained to do so. Soon. Now it is time to go to that old joke of a class Fitness for Health, where half the time we don't meet, and the other half we meet for five minutes. Maybe today we will play kickball! or dodgeball! or...highschool...
