Academic Cranial Torture

There are so many things I want in life. So many dreams I want to pursue. So many goals I've made...realistic or far-fetched. There are so many things I want to do for Christ. So many people i want to reach the gospel with.

There are so many things I want to be, that I'm not.

Sorry, I'm contemplating all this because I keep getting college stuff in the mail. Carson-Newman, Bryan College, Maryville College, the Art Institute in Nashville and EIG have all been sending information to me. I'm completely astounded that life is capable of going by so fast. I can't be 17. It's like a dream. Well, a nightmare.

I'm reminded more and more that I HAVE to live every moment of my life giving glory to Christ, because those moments are the only ones that will last eternally.

That being said, I have to take my ACT tomorrow. Please please pray. I'm nervous and trying not be overwhelmed. I know that God is the source of my knowledge, and that is SUCH an incredible comfort. Needless to say, I'm under pressure to get a good grade.

Sorry, about the lack of real posts. I have company here and we have had a great time together. Today, Shiphrah and I had a photo shoot and it was a blast!! I will post something a little more in depth very soon.

Rejoice in the Coming King!
