“Guys, Summer’s Almost Over”

 

In the wise words of August Paul: Guys, summer’s almost over.

Except this time it’s true.  I leave for school in 11 days.  Where did all the time go?  I feel like I’ve asked that question a lot in the last couple of months.  It’s like a theme for my life this last year.  Interesting timing. 

I’ve really failed at updating this thing.  Everything felt so hectic once I got back and I just didn’t exactly want to face much of life for a while.  Now, I really am just busy.  But I wanted to take this time to record my dreams for this year.  I want to store them here in writing, so I won’t deny to the Lord later what I know He has prepared me for.

I want to continue being vulnerable.  The scary-I-could-get-hurt-this-way kind.
I want to pour myself into freshman in my dorm.  I want to be their big sister.
I want to be a slave to righteousness.  In the face of challenge that calls me to my knees.
I want to be an intercessor.  My campus is a broken campus, just like me.
I want to call on the Lord for strength when I need it.  Which is always.
I want to grow with my brothers and sisters in prayer.
I want to trust the Lord more intentionally.  Because He is who He says He is.
I want to be led.

He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of His nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power.  After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high   - Hebrews 1:3

That’s MY King.
