Praise God in all Situations

The film festival is going well, as I said last night.  However, I'm having a rough day.

Because I was up so late last night, my body is suffering.  I've had trouble walking all day, I'm struggling in two of my classes because the teachers seem to have changed their routine, and I barely have the energy to finish the easiest of my homework assignments because I'm falling asleep mid sentence.  I'm frustrated because of my own impatience looking for companionship, and school doesn't quit stacking stuff on.

But, I know better than to stop praising God.

I'm so thankful Jesus is in my life.  I've found two people to host tonight's movie, tomorrow's, and Friday's too.  My feet don't hurt in my new shoes anymore, and despite what might be a pulled muscle in my right thigh, I'm still able to walk.  I know my worries are not as much as they appear to be, and I'm only freaking out because I'm tired.  Regardless of how much I'm looking for a girlfriend, I appreciate that God /is/ in control, and he won't let my own impatience and blind judgment marry me to a psycho.  I also appreciate each new hopeful crush because they open my eyes more to how I can love everyone equally.

Most of all, I am so grateful for my salvation.  I cannot express how encouraged I am that none of the struggles I'm dealing with matter.  I know that whatever happens while I'm still alive is for God's glory, and also for my benefit, and even if those two facts weren't true, I'm going to see the face of God one sweet day.  I feel blessed to have the chance to live for God, and I pray I continue in my walk, following only in Jesus' footsteps.
