Year Four

1) SENIOR YEAR.

2) Gawgeous roommates.

3) Faithful Lord.

4) Daniel Squarite family.

5) Enjoyable major.

6) Solid church.

7) Humorous family.

8) Delightful job.

9) Exciting possibilities.

10) Wide open future.

This is perhaps the over-positive list about my current life situation. There could be a few negativish and slightly humorous additions, such as:

1) Fear of boys.

2) Temperamental car.

3) Frightful level of time commitments.

4) Probable caffeine overdosage.

5) Danger of initiation into adulthood.

6) Facebook overload

7) Etc....

But, despite positive or negative musings on this life of mine, one characteristic always stays the same and is constant throughout all: the faithfulness of Jesus Christ. Ephesians 1 says "...to the praise of his glorious grace." That's what I want this year to be about. I want the purpose of every piece of every day to be His glory. I want to make his grace, that is so big and incredible, more famous to those around me. I want to be a "God-publicist." Is that term even appropriate in this context? All I know, is that He deserves the praise of his creation, and too many people on Clemson's campus don't know how great He is! I want to get after that, and I want to see the population of believers here rise up with a passion to get after that as well.

So, here comes a year to remember...

Party in the IN-DI-A

So... I went to India this summer. India. How would I sum up an experience like this one in a few sentences? Well, God is a big god. This summer he did big things. He taught me a lot about himself and a lot about how to live a life that is completely reliant on him day by day. How to really care about the souls of millions and take action to love on those he brings into my path with boldness. Our team became a family. We made incredible friendships. I developed a new passion for life in India and vision for my future. I would say it was a life-changing time. :)
