Martin Luther King Day

I think Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. is a great man... after all the reforms and waters he stirred, he still manages to get a holiday-- a holy day.

I had my first full week of school last week. I'm not gonna lie, it was a bit overwhelming but it went by super quickly. I didn't realize how busy I'd be every day. It was nice to take a three day weekend to gear up for this next week.

This past Friday, there was all-music and worship during the chapel service, which was amazing! I helped to cater the athletic banquet for the fb players, which was interesting-- to say the least.

EU had this 24 hours of prayer in the chapel and I went there after work. I didn't realize how exhausted I was from the week until I started stumbling around walking in the chapel. "24" reminded me of the "45" at Hope Community Church, except there were more people there praying and students were playing the music... I think I'm gonna make it a point to go to the "45" more often.

Saturday was a blur. Sunday, I went to Evangel Temple (not affiliated w/ the school) College Service. Pastor Jason spoke on getting back to the basics in terms of growing in spiritual maturity. I like his messages because they're simple, humorous, and applicable.

This week, I have a social work practicum meeting on Tuesday and a leadership meeting on Wednesday. This week is also Spiritual Emphasis Week with something in Forgiveness. I don't know how well this will go over, but I'm praying God will reveal something in my heart about this topic in my life.

The Practicum Fair is next week when a lot of the practicum sites will be coming to recruit students. I'm really praying about going to Missouri Rehab or St. Johns-- two places with a strong emphasis in physical rehabilitation. I'm leaning more towards St. John's because of the distance (MO Rehab is about 45 minutes drive away). Please pray with me about that.

One last thing: pray for the girls on my floor.... that we become unified and grow more towards God.

That's it.
