With that, I'm sad to leave my roommate and unit. As well as campus life and the conveniency of living on campus. Also, some new responsibilities will come in--cooking for one! Have to say, I'm pretty excited about that one. My goal will be to have basics on hand that I can food prep once a week to make meals easy. Want to keep my eating simple and clean--oh and cheap! Other areas of organizing my life--gym time, study time, boyfriend and friends, etc. Should be fun :)
I believe it will also be a time for me to grow spiritually in a different. I will be removed from all my friends and that will remove (well, alter) my temptation to constantly be on the go. I really have to guard against getting too busy in my life. I can be such a Martha--constantly doing something, saying something, worrying about something. But, I desperately have to remind myself to slow down and breathe.
I'm really having to force myself to remember God's goodness, faithfulness, promises, and sovereignty.
I often say, I take at least an hour to actually settle down to do homework or spend time with God.
Sad, I know.
I took this week off from the gym because I haven't been feeling too strong and thought it would be wise to give it all a rest. Sure, my body feels okay with the break. But, my heart and soul are so refreshed. I often have to keep it all in perspective as sometimes I allow the gym or my body to become idols to me or to measure my worth. Balance is so important!!
Well, now hopefully I'll be able to get some sleep :)
Here's to a new chapter!
Christ is enough.
