Recently, I haven’t gotten to do this, but my residents and myself have done “thankfuls” for our days each week. Today I am thankful for so many things….
- Sleeping in and getting quality rest that I need
- Classes ending earlier than expected
- Lunch with Amber
- Canceled class
- Conversations with the fellow RAs on my staff
- Time in the Word
- Unexpected hall dinner that was so lovely
- A&E (Accountability and Encouragement) groups with the women of my church family that I couldn’t live without!
- Refreshment in prayer and goals set for the week to grow in the Lord
- Sisters in Christ to share in excitement with me
- Conversations with my residents about “self-esteem”, the gospel, our American culture and the safe God we have created, and soooo much more.
- Quality time with residents before they leave me for a week 😉
- Encouraging notes, texts, and messages from friends/residents/etc.
- Jenta’s hair-doing abilities. 😉
- Sleep.
- Tomorrow’s and next week’s festivities: Girl’s night out with friends tomorrow, thanksgiving break, FAMILY TIME, yummy food, hanging out with best friends who get home from school far away (AKA emily, kayla, matt, etc), extra time with the Lord and resting/waiting on Him, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc…..
To Be Continued… =)
