So a new year has come and it's an opportunity to improve some things and an overall fresh start. Unfortunately fitness has yet to make its way to the top of my "get it done" list. I guess the cold weather isn't much of a motivator for me to get to the gym and work on my fitness. I would so much rather be in my room eating some cookies or something ahaha.
Academic
life. Last semester wasn't horrible by any means I just know that for myself I could have done so much better. I've done this inner search to find what I did last semester and purpose to do it totally different this semester, because to get results you've never had you must do something you've never done. I'm very hopeful that this will be a great semester for me. ThiIf there is an area thats in need of a fresh start it would definitely be the academic part of mys semester I'm enrolled for 18 credit hours which consist of Principles of Finance, Principles of Marketing, Western Civilization, Musicianship I, Class Piano, Private Voice, Men's Ensemble, and Field Placement. I'm thinking that this all will keep me fairly busy. I'm also working 15hrs a week along with the other activities that I engage in here at school. May God help me...
Well coming off of a Christmas break there has been much happening socially. It was just really good to hang out and catch up with my cousins and friends from home. Christmas was awesome as usual being that I got to spend it with so many family members ranging from my grandmother and her siblings to their children and their children and even their children(ya wrap your mind around that). My last week of break was pretty uneventful in that all my family and friends started to head back to school and then to make everything sooo much better my family went to an indoor water park my last weekend home and because I couldn't go I was stuck home ALONE!!! So I was definitely ready to be back at school after experiencing complete boredom. So upon my return to school some ridiculous weather hit us, and I'm talking -32 with wind chill. This weather was very bitter sweet in that we as a campus where given two consecutive snow days due to the frigid weather, which is unheard of at Olivet. During our nice snow day break I was able to go sledding which I haven't been able to do in a while. But life is good and God is good.
Spiritual
The faithfulness of God never ceases to amaze me. This can become very cliché, but the longer I live the more I find this to be true. It has been my prayer that God would give me a complete spirit of brokenness and humbleness before Him. I have went into covenant with God vowing that in this year more than any time before I would press into worship and to truly let my life be a witness to those who have yet to find Him. I understand that any victory is not won overnight but there will be pain and sacrifice before the battle is won. Of one thing I am confident, I shall be the victor! May God help me as I continue in the quest to fulfill the Great Commission.
