Caffeine

This past semester, I've gotten really hooked on coffee. I feel like an addict- and I am. I drink about two 16 ounce cups of really strong coffee a day. For all of you non coffee drinkers, that's 700 mg, or over 18 CANS OF MOUNTAIN DEW every day. Its really bad. I'm gonna try to go cold over break- so if you see me & i'm cranky or tired, that's why.

Finals

Finals make my brain hurt. I got one test left. But its not for 2 days. Ugh. The cool thing is I'M DONE WITH CHEMESTRY FOREVER! Booyaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!

Window in the Skies

Christmas is coming! I'm so exited- only a few finals to go then its no school for a month! Anyway, Amidst this joyful spirit of the holidays, I just discovered a new U2 song called Window in the Skies. Its an awesome song of joy for Jesus' triumph- & I can't help but smile. Here's the lyrics.

The shackles are undone
The bullets quit the gun
The heat thats in the sun
Will keep us when there's none

The rule has been disproved
The stone has been moved
The grain is now a groove
All debts are removed,

ooh Oh can't you see what our love has done
Oh can't you see what our love has done
Oh can't you see what our love has done
What it's doing to me

Love makes strange enemies
Makes love when love may please
Soul in a strip tease
Hate brought to its knees

Sky over our head
Can reach it from our bed
If you let me in your heart
And out of my head

Oh can't you see what our love has done
Oh can't you see what our love has done
Oh can't you see what our love has done
What it's doing to me

Please don't ever let me out of here
I've got no shame oh no oh no

Oh can't you see what love has done
Oh can't you see
Oh can't you see what love has done
What it's doing to me

Oh I know I hurt you and I made you cry
Did everything but murder but you and I
But love left a window in the skies
And to love I rhapsodize

Oh can't you see what love has done to every broken heart
Oh can't you see what love has done for every heart that cries
Love left a window in the skies
And to love I rhapsodize

Oh can't you see

God is sooo....rough & amazing

God has placed me in a really difficult position that I dont want to be in. It is so clear what I must do. It is also so clear how challenging it will be. God's path is so narrow! And so magnificent. I can see pain in the future, not only for me, but for others. In fact, whatever I'm experiencing is a fraction or what others will deal with. Its unbelievable how God works. I can see the troubles to come, and the blessings on the other side. Its so clear- I've never felt like this- I'm in awe- and I've never wanted God more in my entire life.
