como te va?

dang, last week was a hard one.

i haven’t felt so down in a long long time. it was probably a mixture of politics, a cold, three midterms within 4 school days… and other things. i was really worried it wasn’t going to go away and that i would be stuck with this sinking feeling in my stomach for the next year. but right before i was ready to grovel in front of the Lord Almighty and beg for him to lift this sickness off me, i went to fall conference and everything got better.

God is SO GOOD! Everday I fall so much more in love with him and I am just so amazed at who he is. Fall conference was my cure for the blues. The first night, it was spectacular to worship and just to be free through that. Worship is my outlet, my “green pasture” (Psalm 23:2), but that really wasn’t the absolute cure. I think the big cure was just prayer with my small group. We got together after the talk and we went around to talk about how we were doing. i was enthusiastic at first, because i really wanted to just talk about my week… but i realized i wasn’t going to be that easy. i think it was a combination of a good cry and some really good prayer by people who i love and who love me. after that, i was just emotionaly numb for a bit… it was like the cleansing process that REALLY SUCKS, and afterwards you just are worn out… but after a bit of TLC and just sitting in a leather couch, i recovered. God gave me my strength back.

now, i feel amazing. i’m ready for the week, for the pouring rain that is supposed to hit us this week… what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. i’m alive and stronger, so watch out! hehe.

btw, i wish i had a day off every week. gooosh, what a glorious day it was.

now answer my uber random poll.
