Thursday

WOW!! The weather patterns changed like crazy today. This morning it was overcast and a little bit drizzly. By late morning the sun was coming out, and it was warming up. I think it was over 50 degrees. It was absolutely gorgeous, it even smelled like Spring! LOVELY! I don't quite know what happened, but at some point in time it got really cold and windy. Tonight it is windy and COLD!
Classes were ok I guess. Christian Home was sooo incredibly easy, Bro. Barnes came in, gave us an assignment that is due on Tuesday, and then left. It was WONDERFUL. I had a free period after that, so I had a nice long break, well, I didn't exactly do nothing, I had 2 tests coming up after chapel. Chapel was really good. Pastor Clark from Solid Rock Baptist Church in NJ spoke today. He spoke on Integrity from Job 1:7-8, 2:3, and gave an acrostic along with Bible verses for each letter which I will share:
Individual thing - Job 2:9, Genesis 37:2-3, I Samuel 19:1-4
No one may know that you don't have it, but you know, and eventually they will know - John 13:21
Truth - Proverbs 12:22
Everyone is effected by it - Adam and Eve
God knows - Acts 5
Right behavior ALWAYS - Daniel 1:8
Immorality destroys it - Judges 14:1, Romans 13:19
Temptation/Testing reveals it - Genesis 39:10
Your future depends on it - Proverbs 20:7

It was a really good sermon.
The first test that I had was Christian Womanhood. It was easy, and went well. The second test however, was somewhat difficult. My brain went completely blank at times. It was a pain!
Once again, I didn't work today. :) I was able to go to the store and pick up a few things, including chocolate that was on clearance after Valentines! <3
Today in my mail I got my acceptance letter from Shawnee Baptist College. I'm officially going to be a student there next year! I'm excited! I definitely know this the Lord's will for me. I will be VERY sad to leave some friends here behind, but who knows, maybe I'll get a chance to come visit sometime.
Also in my mailbox was the schedule for specials in church in March. I am on it to play the piano for an offertory. That is the first time I've ever been on for piano in church before! I'm not on for cello! Tonight I made a comment about it to Bro. Randall, he laughed, we both know why I'm not on for cello! I do believe he doesn't want to be hit in the head again. :)) LOL!!!
We did have church tonight. We had what they call "Spiritual Gifts Night." In the back of the auditorium they a table set up for every aspect of the churches ministries. Anywhere from the office to music, bus ministry to the Christian school, and lots of other areas. People could go around and see what each one does, and then sign up to volunteer, or learn more about each ministry. It's kinda cool.
Tonight I had to pick somebody up from work at 9:45. It was really cold and windy. I don't know what's up with this weather. I want spring!

I like the quote on the side, about not waiting out the storms but dancing in the rain.
