What Are You Waiting For?

Apparently nothing worth writing about has happened since March 25. Oops.

So, to catch you up, this was my summer: Work three jobs, a grocery store, the grade school, and Pizza Ranch Corporate office. Take senior photos for friends. Visit the zoo with Emma. Drive all the way to Washington state, visit family, drive all the way back plus yellowstone all in one week. That was it. That was my summer. As fun as some of those things were, I cannot believe how happy I am to be back.

I've started classes and gone to meetings and worked. I've met freshman and gone out for cheesecake, Starbucks, and Carmello's ice cream. I've done homework and played soccer and volleyball. It's nothing out of the ordinary for me, but there's just something about being back that makes me so incredibly happy.

I can't explain it. I might be swamped with homework and planning events, but still, life is good. In everything that is happening, it is easy to see the blessings of God in this world and my life. And trust me, Carmello's ice cream is definitely a blessing.

The theme verse for this year is from Psalm 27:13-14

"I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord." 

So, what are you waiting for?



It Is Well With My Soul
