that i'll really miss this place when i have to leave. i really do hate getting sentimental prematurely. but this place has been really good to me. good memories and bad. the experience here was something that was really God sent. God placed me here and i feel blessed to be a part of this place that i call home. 8 more weeks of school left. i really do want to make the most of it. thank you to everyone who has helped me along the way. especially my roommates. you guys are amazing beyond words.
i had closing in the office today. and as i was writing up the bible study that i have to lead on thursday i was thinking of what topic to discuss. for some reason i thought of the very open and overly touched subject of love. so i started looking at different devotionals on love and came across a lot of verses and things to think about that made my heart warmer. maybe not in a way that science can explain by my chest actually felt warmer..to me. in the middle of working on my lesson someone walked in with a dominoes delivery guy. he asked which hall had the number 100. and i told him that there was no hall with that number. and the pizza guy didnt have a name or anything. i almost felt like i couldnt help him out but he remember a paper that said the actual number of a hall within middle. i got a map and drew directions to the hall and the asian guy that was with him took the map from me and was going to walk the pizza guy to that hall. to me that was love. helping out a complete stranger in the middle of the night. taking time out of your day to make someone else's day a little easier. he could have just sent the guy on his way to navigate through middle with the map. but he decided to go with him. love. can be found in the most simple random acts of kindness. love doesnt need to be found among life-long partners or friends. thank You for showing me this, God. thank You for putting something like love on my heart to pray about. to act on. and to spread to the people around me.
"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
-John 13:34-35
