today was a good day to be here

the first part of the day started early,

with my old testement class which was somewhat ok, were just movin very fast through it for sure. then i sadly skipped out on chapel today cause i went to go and get my physical. luckily someone drove me there or it would have been a long walk, but i sat there for 2 hours in the waiting room just WAITING doing nothing. finally they called me to the back and took 10 mins to ask me if i was healthy, i told them yes, turned around out of the doors and left. it was a waste of mine and my frineds day man, that part of the day sucked for sure.

But the rest of the day got a lot better,

first i actually saw clouds in the sky so i knew running in the afternoon would be great and windy and not as hot as death. then when i was done running later in the night we started a campfire around 9 oclock. it was just out the back of our room on a patio and it started out slow, pretty much just the "Original 5" (thats what i call us in my head) but then it started to get moving and a lot of ppl ended up there prolly a good 25 for a while.

i have been reading a lot about community in the irrisitiable revolution, and i think that were actrually gettin that here in just the week of simpson. we are all getting so close to each other it just feels so good to be here, i wouldnt trade anything for these moments in the world. i was really scared that i wouldnt get any frineds and be a loner, not that i dont like my alone time, but i have really grown with ppl and its awsome.

its amazing to see what God will really do if you let him take your life, not that im perfect but i feel like im gettin closer to God than i have been for a while. which is a good thing,

i still have a long journey ahead of me, but so far, the start has been revealing to me for sure.

i miss the people back home and its hard to live without them, but its good to "grow up" as much as i can.

my verse for the day is matthew 1:21 "becasue He will save his people from their sins" its alwasy good to know that God is near and here to be ready to catch me for sure. im glad that im on His side, and that He is on mine!
