The Little Things

This past Saturday was a strange, but good day. It was the last day of my first class this semester, "Organizational Theory," which was a great class. Anyway, I had to finish a 25-30 page paper reviewing an organization I had been a part of using the four frames of organizational theory. I worked on it all day and finished about 6:00pm. I then went to the Wal-Mart to get some bread and milk and such. On the way home I was feeling very sad for no real reason. I remember feeling like I didn't have anyone to hang out with, and I was basically feeling sorry for myself. I hate when I start to feel that way and know that I really have reason to feel that way. Anyway, I had to stop to get gas and when I turned my truck back on the cd that was in popped out and the radio came on. It was set on the local Christian station 92.1, and Chris Tomlin's song, "How Great is Our God," came on. At that point in time, my mindset completely changed and I was in a great mood again because I realized we do have an amazing God. I remembered that I am not ever alone, because He is always with me. I stopped to get some dinner and kept listening to the radio and heard 2 more great songs before I got home, including "I Can Only Imagine" by MercyMe. Sometimes it just takes a little reminder of how good things really are to get me out of a funk.
It's been a nice week with the students on Spring Break. I have gotten a lot of stuff done and it is so quiet. Although I do have to take defensive driving this week. Also, the spring soccer season starts this week and I am very excited to be playing again. Hopefully Thursday night will go well.
