breaking point.

today, i feel very frustrated. i've spent over 24 hours doing laundry, packing every single thing i own into garbage bags. i don't know what time the exterminator is coming, i don't have a winter coat (because i had to pack it), i don't know where any of my clothing is anymore and our place is so cramped, i'm sitting cross legged in a corner of my solarium, because its the only place where i can fit with my laptop. i haven't gotten much sleep and i don't see how this exterminator is going to be effective. i feel frustrated that i can't print out my notes for class, frustrated that one roommate had her boyfriend to help her pack, the other roommate had her mother, and i had no one. i feel frustrated that there's so much to do today and so little time. i feel frustrated that i won't be able to sleep here tonight, which means eventually going through every garbage bag to find clothing to wear.

its days like these where the rubber really hits the road, and everything i've learned about the Spirit-filled life comes into play. Do i really understand the Spirit-filled life? will i actually turn to the cross when i am in need, or will i let bitterness seep in and take root?

Let us fly to the cross for shelter in all times of need and help will be sent to us. For praying breath is never spent in vain. ~C. Spurgeon.
