"That better not be mine."

Back in Kent for my final round of Resident Assistant training. I'm in a new building... with an all new team... new boss... new everything. It just reminds me of the fact that I like change and love new people.

It has been exhausting... and frustrating at times.

Talking about "privilege" with a bunch of middle to upper class liberal college students is whats really frustrating.

They think they sit on the unprivileged side of life because they have things like stress, and loans, and they pay for college all alone. Ignorant kids... any one of my 50 homeless friends downtown who are going tonight without a bed, without a shower, without food will all tell you that somehow they sit on the privileged side of life. How does that work?

I can't wait till Jesus restores this world... and opens our eyes.

The hardest part about being here is that I miss my sweet precious friends on the streets of columbus. I miss them terribly and my heart longs and literally aches to see them. They have incredible stories that have become part of my story and I can't wait to see where thats going to go.

My grandma from NZ who is in the country while my gramps has chemo is just so beautiful. She gave me the best advice tonight when she said, and with a british accent... "There are no such things a bad days"

When she expanded it really made some sense in my heart. We are living and breathing and what else do we want? We get to see the sun rise everyday and look at the beauty of the earth created by the hand of God himself and we complain about bad days. God woke us up today. He is sustaining our lives with every breath. Every breath we breathe in is Him breathing life into us.... and for that I am thankful.

I am guilty of having an ungrateful heart. HE made the sun come up today... not me.
