Another Field Trip?
Wow, I feel like a wee little school boy again!
I'm taking more field trips during my senior year of college than I did in High School! Ok, slight exaggeration, but I am about to embark on my third and final field trip of the semester. That's right UPS, move it on over because we are riding on the Federal Express!!! 'Come and ride the train and...choo cho....' um, ok, done with that. That's right, a field trip to the heart of Fed Ex in memphis. We are going to tour EVERYTHING. DC's, planes, packaging areas, Human resources. What time do we leave pray tell?
Get this, we leave at 9pm.... WHAT IS THAT!?! OH! even better, we'll get back at 3 AM!! STOP...!!!! Bunch of curfew-busters over here! Not only that, but we also get excused from all classes and chapel! UM, WOAH. Curfew-busters and chapel-skippers. God forgive us. You KNOW the administration of Freed-Hardeman is sweating it out and praying for us!
Anyways... things have been uneventful for the past while. For the first time...probably all semester... I came in after class and didn't leave the dorm at all. I wasn't feeling well and I slept like none other. Naturally, my four roommates felt the wrath when I was awaken from my slumber... but then I remember Christ and fell back asleep! When in doubt, think of Christ, right? Get a lil W.W.J.D. going on, ya heard?
Anyways, I love friends, don't you? I wanna give a shout out to the friends I've been close to over the past week! My love to Sarah, Blake, Cousin, Momma (awe, tear), Dale, Ann Marie, James, Eric, church fam at skyline...etc etc. Alright, well chapel is about to start...
Remember that your most effective ministry will come out of your deepest hurts. Ps 119:71, it was good for me to be afflicted so that I might learn your decrees. It's not enough for God to tell us what is right and wrong. We'll just forget, but when you actually live out the hurt, you'll have a perspective and point of reference that'll never die. Make the best of hurts. It's hard to do it at that moment, but if you'll make the commitment and investment, the dividends will pay off greatly (business major,...right?)
