february twenty-first (not really).

So, I'm sorry everyone...I'm going to document the past few days in one single post on the account of I've been sick and mostly chained to my bed. So my life has been relatively unproductive. But, I'll share all the same.

Monday (21st)-woke up, didn't feel so great. Went to the gym. Felt worse. Came back home. Slept, drew and painted then watched TV for a little while and read.

Tuesday (22nd)- Felt fairly terrible. Went to the doctor, got some medicine and not one, but two shots. though they helped, it still was not exactly ideal. After that, I came back home and slept because those shots seriously take it out of you. and then, i woke up watched a little tv, went to see caroline and catherine and started a new day.

Wednesday (23rd)- finally, my life is turning around. I got up yesterday at 7ish to work out with tiff, and it was great. sometimes I forget that I love just waking up early and getting things accomplished during the day. After that, I went home took a shower, cleaned and read a little and then went to Caroline's until church. Church was so wonderful, mostly because I'd been cooped up in the house for the past couple of days and anything to counteract that was just such a blessing. Also, I got to see jonathan, who was a leader in my group at survivor and it was just really nice to be able to catch up with him and hear how he and his wife mandie are doing. after church, we went back to caroline's and just hung out for awhile. always good times.

So basically, over the past few days the Lord has been teaching me about the one thing that bro. Billy spoke about on wednesday. PASSION .it's crazy, because sometimes I'm this completely dedicated, over the top person and then sometimes, i just lack motivation. i really need to get to the place where i am not reliant on a source of momentum to keep me focused, but out of an unwavering passion that isn't contingent upon the amount or lack of time i've spent with the Lord. I'm praying and seeking to be in a place where each day is not simply or does not simply feel likethe continuation of the next, but a new day in the Lord. Pray for me for that please!!

Prayer for others- Jonathan and Mandie. They are moving to Douglasville from Macon and moving is always such a tough transition. And even though the Lord is good, and He is faithful, it's still hard to be uprooted sometimes and maintain a spirit of contentment and praise throughout that. So I just ask that you would pray that they would just be in constant gratitude and be open to the new opportunities the Lord is bringing into their lives.
