i am in dire need of a motivational speaker
two finals down, two more to go. come on jason, you can do it! i SO do not want to write this next paper. i just don't know where to start. my classmates and i have come to the unanimous conclusion that they are, by far, the stupidest, most irrelevant questions of the year. but i still have to answer them, so i guess i better get moving, eh?
man, argentina is weighing on my mind big time. i've got basically a week to come up with $3,000 or i can't go. i know God can and will bring it in if it's His will that i go, and i really think this is what He wants me to do with my summer. if not, i'll deal. i'll be a little disappointed, but if He doesn't want me down there, i don't want to be down there. i guess we'll find out in a week, won't we?
hmmm, there must be a reason i'm not inspired to write anything here at the moment. perhaps that's God telling me to get off my butt and write this paper. and so i shall.
Answer me when I call to you
O my righteous God.
Give me relief from my distress;
be merciful to me and hear my prayers
How long, O men, will you turn my glory into shame?
How long will you love delusions and false gods?
Know that the Lord has set apart the godly for himself;
the Lord will hear when I call him.
In your anger do not sin;
when you are on your beds,
search your hearts and be silent.
Offer right sacrifices
and trust in the Lord.
Many are asking, "Who can show us any good?"
Let the light of your face shine upon us, O Lord.
You have filled my heart with greater joy
than when their grain and new wine abound.
I will lie down and sleep in peace,
for you alone, O Lord,
make me dwell in safety
~Psalm 4
pz out and God bless.
