It's been almost 2 weeks of school and God has been great!
To be honest, I've been uber busy with school work, projects, UniFire, Ultimate Frisbee, and a list of many other things which are really important as well. Almost every night, I have a meeting or training, and I reach home only after 10. I'm exhausted and I do my work till 2 - 3 am before going to bed. It's crazy! The cycle repeats itself everyday. Mind you, this is the second week of school.
Well... you might think that my head is going to blow. You're right, it is. haha. However, I've got something inside of me that makes me feel different from how someone should typically react.
You see, I feel the stress all around me. It's pressing me in and pounding on the walls of my head. However, I'm not stressed. I've got a joy, a peace! Thank you God, you can take credit for this, amidst a host of many other things.
"We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. we always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body." - 2 Corinthians 4: 9 - 10
School is crazy, God is good.
Ultimate Frisbee is exhausting, God is good.
Math is perplexing, God is good.
Deadlines are frustrating, God is good.
Responsibilities are taxing, God is good.
The list goes on.... God is good.
Sometimes, I start my day with remembering what God has done. Then when I encounter some tough patch, it doesn't look too tough, cause God has already solved it, and He will solve it again. It's like a solution encountering a problem, not a problem looking for a solution.
Back to math... Back to God...
yeah! God is good (:
