its all a bit insane. getting back into the swing of things, i mean. i have a feeling God really wants to teach me about discipline this semester. with a full courseload, being on a diet, 2 DGs, coordinating weekly meetings, missions committee at church, worship team and ballet its going to be pretty hectic. Doable but hectic. Which means that i need to stick to the schedule i've prepared for myself. Making sure that i spend time in the Word--drawing my strength from the Holy Spirit and spending time studying instead of lazing around.

The character that really inspires me towards living a disciplined life (aside from Jesus) is Paul who declares in 1 Corinthians 9:27 (ESV), "But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified." What a picture this is! i too do not want to be disqualified from the race. The goal is to win the prize for which we have been called heavenwards in Christ Jesus. i desire to be an effective and wise steward of the time i have been given here on earth, that i may glorify the father.

Speaking of being an effective and wise steward with my time...its time i get back to studying and planning. tata!
