House Parties

WOW...what a lazy day. I just went to class, sat there, then came back to the dorm, played some Madden, then had a sweet night of partying. Let me tell you it was great. We had music and food and karaoke. It was great. We really showed that Illini Life can have fun. I love that I was able to meet more new people too. There are lots of people on this campus :) I just hope that I have the strength to work through all of this new student stuff and focus on school somehow. Hopefully early next week I'm going to talk to an advisor and get stuff taken care of with school. That'll be great to get taken care of. I'm just so stoked by God right now. He's fueling a fire inside me that is burning brightly. Now I'm sure at some point it's going to be tough to keep that fire to even embers, but right now I'm enjoying this. I really hope the new people keep coming because they are really wonderful and unique and I'd love to get to know each of them really well. I'm also excited about the rest of the year as well. Spence and I have been talking about some sweet stuff we could organize like guys nights and fun things like paintball, etc. What else is going through my head. To be honest, I was walking into my dorm thinking about how much I had on my mind and now nothing is coming to my head other than the greatness of God. I guess that's a pretty okay thing to have running through my mind though.

OH...please pray for my friend. He is in a very dark time of his soul and I ask that you may really help him through with your thoughts and concerns for him. I love him to death and hope God guides him through.

Right now I'm listening to Chris Tomlin, it's nearly three in the morning and I'm loving it. God is so great, I don't even know how much I could say that. Although, it's pretty sad, I've yet to find a place to spend quiet time with him. I also haven't read much in my Bible recently at all. I really need to get back into that, because if I see God working like he is without my quiet time with him, imagine how much he can do if I work him into my life in special places. I guess writing on here is somewhat of a quiet time meditation. It is three o'clock and quiet and I'm just soaking in God. Praise his name. Silly me going on...I dunno, I love this though!!!!!!!!
