More rambling

Well, Easter is over, and I have to go back to school tomorrow - something that I am not looking forward to. My break has been pretty great, though, so I really can't complain. My sister was home for a little over a week, and we spent most of the time watching CSI episodes. We are almost caught up... only about a season or two left, and judging by the way she has been watching them, we will be caught up within a matter of months. Yeah, I know, we have no lives.

Lately I've found myself to be completely surprised by God. He keeps showing Himself to me in ways that I would have never expected. Sometimes it's through a song that I hear on FLN, sometimes it's something that Pastor Doug says in church, and sometimes it is something that I read in my devotions. I find that I am taken back by His power every single time. It's funny because sometimes I get this feeling that I have God all figured out. I have to laugh at myself because that notion is absurd. We can't figure out God. Not at all. He's too great for our minds to comprehend.

Sometimes I feel myself becoming overwhelmed with prayer. There are so many people that I try to pray for, and most of the time I forget them. Other times I feel like the people I am praying for are lost causes. It's very frustrating and disappointing when you pray for someone who doesn't care or someone who only seems to sink further into their sin. It's extremely hard to keep on praying for them. But God works in mysterious ways. He knows what is going to happen even before you start praying about it, so that is definitely an encouragement.

Haha, I don't really know why I am posting all this. I am sort of in a comtemplative mood, I guess. Well, enough with the deep stuff. I am just ready for it to be summer. I am sick of school, and I am looking forward to being a senior. However, that prospect scares me. I've always known that it was coming, and I have seen many friends graduate from high school and college, but it's never hit me that that will be me. I can't grasp the concept of me graduating. I mean, high school is all I've ever known, and college is a terrifying thought. However, after spending some time with April at Grove City, some of my fears have been calmed. College is actually a lot of fun (and I am not talking about partying... I don't see why people enjoy that). I am looking forward to it more now, but I don't know how long that is going to last seeing as how I am looking at close to 8 years there...

Here I go on rambling again. I guess this means that I should stop, haha. Besides, I have to leave for my piano lesson in 10 minutes.
Until next time...
