Anyways, Alicia and I decided to make a par-tay out of the 4th and made 50 billion cupcakes and bought another gazillion pounds of pop and headed out to the stadium with some friends... it was fun, but it made me kind of sad to see so many people obliterated and not even remembering that especially in today's world we are so lucky to live in a free country...
It was hard to leave Bloomington on Monday morning (yes, at 6:30 am so I could make it to the Hilton @ 8am!) but it is starting to get a little better knowing we are now counting down the weeks (only 6 left!) rather than counting up how many I've done.
Also... God definitely taught me a huge lesson on being diligent this week. I won't give a huge recap on the blog but it was just a cool feeling to know that although I was definitely disciplined by Him because of my laziness, He was doing it because I am His. I just want to encourage you, my invisible reader, to remain disciplined in your time with God, your sleep, exercising, everything because the summer is such an easy time to get lazy.. And once you start with the idleness, it's really hard to get back into being diligent and hardworking. "Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth." - Proverbs 10:4
Speaking of diligence, I'm off to bed so I can actually have enough sleep for my 8 hours @ the Hilton tomorrow. Lots of love and blessings to you :)
