quiet reminders.

i am sitting here in my dorm room. all my roommates are gone, and it's just me. the only noise is coming from our air conditioner, me typing away on my key board, and the random people occasionally in the hallway. i am reminded in this quiet time in the midst of the busyness of college life, that i need to take more moments like this to breathe. i need to take moments like this and meditate more on God and what He has done for me. i have amazing friends, i go to a great college, i have a wonderful family back home {who i miss a lot}, i'm getting a great education, and my God is in complete control of absolutely everything! that alone should give me a reason to take more moments to breathe. why? because i don't have to worry about anything. my God is in complete control. He knows everything i need, when i need it, how i need it, and it's all part of His perfect plan for my life! that just amazes me.

college life is going wonderfully. i am making a lot of new friends, and i am also able to hang out with some old friends. college life is definitely busy. right now, i have my history of civ book staring me in the face, just waiting for me to open it and continue on homework. so for now, i hope that you will remember to take those quiet moments, and remember all that God has done for you, and what He is doing for you now!
