Twenty-Five Days In My New World

I can't believe it's been that long already. Time has flown by faster than I thought. June will be over soon.

I love it here. This environment is so relaxed, and centered on Christ, who wouldn't want to live here?
I'm not saying it doesn't have flaws... It certainly does. For instance, I can't fit my family into my dorm room so they can live with me. I do have a small part of my family with me, and that is awesome all on it's own. God has blessed me with this amazing opportunity, and I don't want to miss out on any of it. How many people get the chance to experience college with two of their siblings?

My sister has been a dear. She's been so patient with me, and she always wants me to have fun. She stays up for me until I get off from work, which is usually 10:00pm or later, when she has to be up before 7:00am most days. She has made sure I'm comfortable, and happy. She's even gone to the Chapel with me, when she was tired, and not in the best of moods.

Daniel, has been awesome as well. He's always there to do something with, and he's shown me how much he really loves me, and that means more to me than most things.

I have two favorite places here in Point Lookout. First is the chapel. I like to go there right after breakfast and play piano for an hour or so. Then I head over to the Point, which is my second favorite place. I read my Bible, devotionals, and journal there. The view is stunning, and it's the perfect place to read God's word and praise Him. It is amazing to me that I can do that. I don't think I was expecting to be able to spend that much time alone with God.

I've met some amazing people. God blessed me with wonderful co-workers, so we have a pretty good time in the dish-pit together. We try to encourage one another, so we don't get too down in the dumps. Dish pit is not as bad as I thought it would be. It certainly is not that fun, and it gets really hard and challenging some times. It also makes me a little emotional thinking about how many hours a week I spend with my hands in the soapy water. :-P

God is GOOD. That's all I have to say. My God is an awesome God.
