I decided that to make things more interesting from... tomorrow on I'll be posting a little something in Spanish so that you all get how I'm doing in it so far. :P Sound good? Great! Good talk.
Today was a normal day. Uneventful besides the fact that Max and I are actually making an attempt to get along. ;) In this mornings lesson I learned about Irregular Verb Past Tense... yeah. Long and rather mind boggling especially when you put in future tenses both regular and irregular which was one of my exercises. My mind was about ready to explode! However right after lessons I like to get my homework done straight away. Today I decided to go to the park to get a bit of sun before going to my coffee shop for wifi.
So. Here's what happens at the park. We call it the kissing couples park because they're always there making out... as Kim says "Awkward". Anyways, Max figured out that if you get there before 1 then they won't be there because they're in school still. Well, as most things, I didn't take what he said too seriously. ;) I went to the park around 12:15 and was there for about an hour when, sure enough, 3 couples came into view and... well... started doing their... yeah. I took that as my cue to leave. I then walked to my coffee shop, they know me well there now, and finished my homework and had a lovely long chat with my mom. There's just something about a mom's words that make everything better. Not even her words but seeing her face. Just brought so much more peace to my heart. And my sisters aren't bad either. ;) The guys texted me saying that they wanted to meet me for lunch in the square. They also said they were going to be a little late but I didn't mind. I went to the square of the cross, sat at the foot of the cross and had a great time with Jesus.
As I journal I like listening to music like most everything I do. However, Hillsong songs have been my go to music for awhile now instead of Classical or Pop. Anyways, I was pouring out my heart to Jesus. Just not really understanding why my heart still longs for more of something. I couldn't figure it out. And then I figured that of course. Duh! Our entire lives we're going to be longing for Christ. We will never be completely satisfied. There will always be more that He's showing us. So I told Jesus that I wanted my heart to be His and His alone always. And to still my heart. I happened to be listening to the song Lead me to the Cross at the time I was writing about how I felt kinda like I was grasping for something... and looked up. There I was. At the foot of the Cross. God made it so abundantly clear to me that the cross is enough. It WAS enough. That He is enough. He is all we need. Now and forever. It was like a lightbulb went on in my head. What an interesting thought! ;)
The guys finally picked me up an hour or so later, but like I said I really didn't mind... priorities and all that :P, and we went to this great Hamburger place that brought us a little taste of home. The ketchup even tasted like it was imported from the US! In order to get to know each other better we all called for a honest moment and chose to ask each other questions. Silly, serious, didn't matter. It was great! Of course my life is an open book so nothing interesting there. :P Afterwords we went back to the hotel, finished up homework and watched the Prestige. It was awesome seeing the looks on the guys faces at the end lol! If you haven't seen it, it's something else. Directed by Christopher Nolan you know its going to be good.
Well, it's a bit short today but who says its gotta be long? Not this kid! Hope you enjoy my ramblings!
