Learn to be Lonely

I'm ignoring Chris until he forgives me. He thinks he's being clever by talking until I cave, but obviously he doesn't know how stubborn I am. :-D

School's good, work's good.

There's really nothing to talk about. My life has settled into a rather monotonous routine, which not a one of you would be interested in.

My throat feels weird.

I like Jelly Belly jelly beans.

Do you know how amazing God is?

I'll tell you how amazing God is...

Okay, last week, I was kind of freaking out because I had almost NO money in my checking account. And when I say almost NO money, that's what I mean. So, round about Thursday I was almost panicking. No, honestly, I was losing sleep over it. I mean, I still have school bills to pay, cell phone bill, gas, etc.

Then Friday morning I woke up and I was like, "You know what? God's always taken care of my family when we were low on money, why would He stop now?" So I decided to just stop thinking about it and rely on God.

Then GUESS WHAT?!

I got a paycheck Friday night that I wasn't even counting on getting until two weeks later! It wasn't enough to cover all my bills coming up, but it would definitely help.

THEN GUESS WHAT ELSE!!!

Saturday night I went in and Tulio, my boss, told me that not only would I get to work an hour extra, but I would also be waiting tables. Waiting tables on a Saturday night?! I was so excited, I don't know how I kept from jumping up and down.

But it's not just the money I'm excited about. I mean, sure, that's great and all. But it was AFTER I decided to give it up to God and let Him handle it that it worked out. While I was trying to do it on my own...well, let's just say I was pretty tired a few days. When we give control of a situation to God, things run much smoother!

By the way everyone, I'm LOVING school (except for math, no big surprise there) and work is fairly cool as well.

Ta!
