Say won't you Say

Rollercoaster

I, like most girls, feel like I am a rollercoaster of emotions. When I'm up, I'm way up and when I'm down it seems to be a snowball effect leading to hitting rock bottom. I must say that the ups far out number and out weigh the downs. This week has had its share of both of these emotions. Until Spring Break comes I'm afraid that my weeks will continue to be this way. School is just crazy right now and I am not the best at time management and multitasking. I haven't seen my family in a long time, I haven't had good quality friend time with some of people that I thrive for that with, I don't have time to do things right now that "stir my Hearts affection" unless they are things for classes, in which case I can't see them for anything more than another task to accomplish and check off my list. I don't like myself very much when I get like this. I am going home this weekend to do a disciple now to hangout with and teach a group of eighth grade girls a little more about God and who He is and that He is good. I honestly think that I will get just as much, if not more out of this weekend than the girls will. I am praying that this weekend He will restore my soul, give me back an overwhelming Joy, and be able to use me in the midst of the craziness of my life right now. It will be good to just get away for the weekend and attempt to just reconnect with the Lord and not dwell on getting things checked off my to do list. I am going to attempt stillness and get off the rollercoaster at least for a few days.
