Wow. My assignment was on a paper discussing the negative effects of procrastination for a student's academic career.
....I turned it in 30 min. late.
HAHAH!. ooh, terrible.


In other news, here are some awesome things the Lord has been putting in my heart :) (jacked from my FB post)

There is no sweeter presence in Christ than when you are at the bottom, unaware of the future, and drifting along "moonless seas." Every whisper is a shout, every miniscule comfort..an all-soothing balm for the aching wound. Thankful for these lessons I've been learning as of late:
1) Time Is fleeting, our days fly away and wither like grass. Pray for a heart of wisdom to use your time intentionally. Earthly life is short, but our heavenly life is eternal. Gaze upon the grand picture of God, not the speck of dust that may seem to consume all. You will never be overcome; beneath you are the Everlasting arms.2) It's not wrong to always believe the best of others, but extend even deeper grace if they give you every reason not to. No matter how deep the wound, be thankful that in their flaws, God has in fact, rewarded you with a reflection of yourself: a sinner, who is also flawed, who also needs grace.
3) The biggest test of our faith is when God says "no."
4) My dentity in Christ is the most important thing about me. Not my profession, worldly reputation, talents, or relationship status. I am forgiven, I am redeemed, and I am loved eternally, unconditionally, and overwhelmingly by the grace of God.
6) BE GRATEFUL. Never stop counting your blessings, lest you grow embittered, forgetful, and unaware of how lavishly blessed you are.
7) Read God's word with acceptance, reverence, and brevity.
8) Depression is inversely linked to being ungrateful. "A grateful heart, you will not despise."
