Can you find the sleeping child?
God wants to tell us things. He is not a God of secrets. We have to be ready and willing to just listen.
Tuesday I got home from work and while eating dinner had the strongest feeling I needed to leave and go walk around campus. It was a beautiful night and as I wandered I ran into lots of people and had lots of good conversations. I looked at my phone later and found out I wandered for 2.5 hours. It ended with me having a really good conversation with a good friend. God is patient. The second I left my house I knew that that was who I needed to talk to, but it took me almost 3 hours to get over there.
Men's volleyball is ranked #8 in the nation!!!! Lets GO!
Wednesday there was a volleyball game and Steven on the team opened his mission call! Its so fun to see all the people here supporting everyone. Love it!
The weather was absolutely perfect this week.
Sometimes you just need TacoBell when others want Cookout. So you go buy TacoBell and eat it in Cookout.
Friday was the first night of SVU idol! We cheered very loud for everyone, especially Colby. He had quite the fan section going on! We all ended up going to Cookout after, like any good SVU event haha!
Saturday afternoon I went to Macadoo's! Rachel's parents took some of us out to lunch. It is always delicious and always so fun! I love Lexington :)
I just kind of ran away after that. I drove to Staunton to get food at Sharp Shopper and then went to SVU's production of An Ideal Husband. I then went to the last of the second night of SVU idol. I just felt really overwhelmed.
Some days are just a little harder than others. It might be more difficult to hold back tears, or harder to smile. But I still find that people are beautiful and Christ gives us many reasons to be happy and keep moving. In church we talked about not looking back and dwelling. Elder Holland said, "Faith is always pointed toward the future. Faith always has to do with blessings and truths and events that will yet be efficacious in our lives. Faith builds on the past but never longs to stay there. Faith trusts that God has great things in store for each of us and that Christ truly is the "high priest of good things to come"".
Things might be hard in the moment. But God expects us to turn to him and keep moving! Find people who make you smile, feast upon the words of the Lord, and never forget to pray. never underestimate the feelings you have. You are smarter and more in tune than you realize. answers might not come when or how we expect, but with Faith and diligence. God will answer!
(Grateful for Rachel and our many talks! Plus look how cute our random matching dresses our!)
