So, I'm here on the University of Memphis campus - late. . . YET again. The second time this week. I'm studying for a history exam, writing a history paper, writing a sociology paper, and finishing a project for dietetics. *sigh. Needless to say, I'm exhausted. I feel like I've been living on campus this past week. I'm literally running myself into the ground with my homework, and work schedule. After getting dinner (a vanilla milkshake from Burger King) I went to a random couch in the UC and literally passed out for 30 minutes. There could have been an earthquake and I wouldn't have noticed - seriously, I'm running on 3 cups of coffee. AND ALL THE COFFEE PLACES ON CAMPUS ARE CLOSED. Not cool. I feel loopy and my brain is just fried to a lovely crisp.
However, where my sleep and sanity has failed, God has been faithful. :) He's the one that I think of when I feel like I can't go any further. I honestly don't know how I'd be surviving college without Him. I feel like I can hear His voice closer than before, and this thrills my heart. :) Even though I'm dead tired in the morning, I find myself excited to get into His word first thing every morning. He shows me new things everyday, and I can feel myself falling more in love with my Savior every second. It could be just me and my Heavenly Father for the rest of my life - and I would be happy. :) I'd rather have His faithfulness and love than anything else in this world. Sure, we're human, we want relationships, and we want to find "the one," but honestly that isn't going to last for forever. We're not guaranteed a lifelong partner, but we are guaranteed a lifelong Savior. :) I get to hold my Savior's hand as He leads me through this thing called life. His hand is the one that will never leave mine. :) He has blessed me with an amazing family, and incredible friends - and He gave His life for mine. I could never ask for anything more than that.
So, in conclusion, I'm sitting here in the library (taking a break from homework) with a huge smile on my face because my Savior has set my heart racing just thinking about Him. Oh gosh, now I'm tearing up, okay the librarian thinks I'm crazy but oh well. - I need to do more homework, and find some more coffee. . .
