Philippians 3:1-11

This passage was brought up twice in the span of less than 24 hours (once at small group last night and again this morning during my devotionals) so I feel like maybe God’s trying to tell me something here. For those who don’t know the passage is about having confidence in God and not your own efforts. Your greatest accomplishments are nothing compared to what you can do through Him. That’s so freeing to think about life that way! I mean, this isn’t a completely new concept to me or anything but it was something I had definitely forgotten. There are so many times I feel unqualified and insecure (post-college plans), but I realize it’s okay. It doesn’t matter.

His plans > my insecurities.

Life Lately

Hello. It’s definitely been a while since I’ve written anything of substance here so why not now when I’m procrastinating on studying for my physiology midterm that’s tomorrow? *tips imaginary top hat* Lovely timing as always, tumblr.

Life lately has still been rather directionless…with most of my energy focused on just getting through the day I feel like I haven’t really had the willpower to think about long term things. Like…post-college stuff or even just the end of the week. But despite the lack of direction, things have been going well. Softball’s going well—it’s crazy to think this is my second to last season. Conference starts this weekend! School’s meh per usual, my physiology professor frustrates me to no end. Registered for my classes next fall, filled out my application for graduation (eek.), housing is good to go…college life’s going by real fast. Everyone’s on spring break now haha it’s weird to think mine was 2ish weeks ago? Let’s seee…what else. I’ve been eating chocolate entirely too much. I’ve been trying to get into the Word more often and it’s definitely been a challenge, but I think I’ve kind of settled into a routine. I gave up hanging/scramble/words with friends for Lent. Buuut I got draw something. But I haven’t been playing that much—usually just in really awkward social situations. Speaking of awkward social situations I joined a pre-healthcare fraternity at school and wow, talk about awkward people. I feel much better about myself haha. Also, I need to stop using the fact that I’m awkward as an excuse to not do things. I should just do it and oh well if it’s awkward. Own it. I’m probably not as awkward as I give myself credit for, seeing from the first chapter meeting of Beta Chi Mu haha.

Well this has been a thoroughly boring life update…I should probably get back to studying physio.
