in devos tonight I read this...we actually are also using verse 12 as our theme verse for PG =)
"Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity." Colossians 3:12-14
this was pauls strategy for us to live for God everyday...yea its hard. compassion, humility, gentleness, and patience. as school get more involved...thses things will be harder to follow. I might get impatient with a teacher, classmate, or hall mate for something stupid. i might be so concentrated on school and what going on in my life...that i might not take the time to smile at the person walking by me on the way to class. these little things...can evolve into big things. I need to work on these things, and toward having peace in God everyday...just taking it a day at a time.
im going home this weekend. i was walking back from class today and listening to a voicemail from my dad. I really miss him alot. i never thought i would say that i missed my parents, but i really do miss my dad...im really going to miss watching football with him on sundays and monday nights =(...anyway its really late right now and i cant sleep. which isnt good cause then ill be extremely tired for classes tomorrow...oh well. I finally have my first soccer game tomorrow. I ended up on the free agents team with sarah=) hopefully we have some good people though...im a little worried cause its free agents. eh oh well ill have fun with it no matter what! i should probably get some sleep. ill read till i fall asleep...it usually works.
