Praise God today. Man, He is solely awesome. He doesnt need me to prove how freaking awesome He is. It is pouring rain outside and thundering sooo loud. As I sit here and wonder why the sun isn't shining I can't help but enjoy the sight, the smell, the noise of the rain fall. It brings me joy to sit in a storm, although walking to class becomes a hassle, even more than it was. But praise goes out to Him.
My nephew evan will be staying with his aunt, my oldest sister, for a while and I can't help but think of what a blessing it is for him and for my sister. Stressors have been released. My sister is getting help, katy and trey and finding humility in having a [temporary] kid in their home, and evan gets stability for awhile. Yea, new stresses will arise for everyone but all-in-all things are alright. I think that God will bring peace in this situation. 
On another note, I am having a great day. I could not be in a better mood and things are looking up. Im wet from walking back from class but that doesn't matter because at least we have a place of refuge to come in from the storm. I have come to realize that there is glory in everything. Not shame, not hurting, nothing is lost. Everything is glorious because it is made glorious. 
Watch a sunset, go for a run, ride a bike, go fishing in a pond, walk barefoot, do a cartwheel, eat sunflower seeds, INDULGE in life. do somethings that makes you happy.

I love that you see it as such a blessing, especially since you're the only one who won't be inconvenienced. ;) (I'm KIDDING--I know you do whatever to help!)

You make me happy!

You are wonderful. I will so go walk barefoot and possibly eat some sunflower seeds today...I just might even convince Trey to take me fishing...

I'm so thankful that you've been carried to the place you're at now. That God has given you joy, and some peace, and healing.

You're also just kind of cool to be around. Love you.
