"A + + + + +"

Yup, spending a week off from school (a much needed break from O-Chem) was great. Leading in Covington, Ga for my church's Youth Camp soo much perspective the Lord blessed me with... in the midst of worship each night. Seeing the kids seek, learn, soak and find freedom in Christ was tremendously encouraging for my heart. Im soo glad i was given the opp. Ill admit, i was a little hesitant, nervous, frustrated going into the week knowing that upon my return to AU that following Sun i would have to make up my first OChem test of the summer term today. THe Lord totally focused me and it was a great week of "retreat from the world" . Feeling so many emotions yesterday while preparing for my test today.... trying to process all the Lord did in me and in the youth while trying to figure out Alkene reactions? Not a good combo huh? Strangely, i had a peace the entire time i was studying for the test...(total opposite of the normal preparation feeling for me). I walked into the test today and finished it feeling really good about it! The Lord is soo good, even in the most bizarre cases, he proves faithful in the simplicity of helping me make an "A" on my test. That's all, just wanted to share my good past week and a half. Going to bed joyful...ha! Find Christ in the smallest aspects of your life and he will prove that he is bigger than it all...
