1. I’ve been reading Lamentations 3 everyday this week:
“I remember my affliction and my wandering,
the bitterness and the gall.
I well remember them,
and my soul is downcast within me.
Yet this I call to mind
and therefore I have hope:
Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion;
therefore I will wait for him.”
The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him,
to the one who seeks him;
it is good to wait quietly
for the salvation of the LORD.”
That passage is gold, pure gold.
2. Today I had lunch with a previous HUG student who gave me a lot of traveling advice. I am beyond excited! A few places I’m definitely free-traveling to? Dublin, London, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Paris, ROME, Munich, SWITZERLAND. Not to mention the time I’m spending in Greece, Israel and Egypt. 68 days people.
3. Obviously HUG is costing a pretty penny, so I’ve been working at Sonic every weekend to save up as much money as possible. You guys…that job…
4. I hosted my first prayer group last night for some Iota Chi sisters. It was wonderful to come together and share our struggles, and to lift one another up in prayer! I baked oatmeal chocolate chip cookies and we had a very intimate time. Can’t wait until we do it again next week!
5. Thanksgiving break is only 5 school days away. PRAISE!
I spent the Fall 2010 in Europe and I loved it. I was studying just outside Barcelona and I had a phenomenal time. I can't wait to follow your experience :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear all about your experiences in Europe! P.S. If I pay my way to Arkansas will you pack me in your suitcase?
ReplyDeleteThis is seriously awesome. I can't wait for this to happen and you get frustrated once you realize your computer won't have space for all the crazy amounts of photos you'll be taking! haha, portable hard drives are your friend ;)
ReplyDeleteAutumn, I'm really excited for you. I had hoped Kory would go to Greece but he has decided to go another direction. I know this is an expensive trip...and I'd love to help support you to go. Will you email me your HU box #? god.b4all@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI wish you the best of luck and a wonderful trip!
