thoughts

so i've been back on campus for about three weeks and i haven't been more excited those three weeks than i am right now.

friends have come back and i've seen growth in them that only God can be responsible for. a love for Him where there wasn't one before. outlooks that have shifted and focused. maturity that seems to have been gained. opportunities that have presented themselves. conversations that have gone deeper than before. each of these have brought me a deep joy to be around the people that i am. God is good.

i am also excited for the guys that will be living on my hall. i am in charge of all 24 of them; from being a rule enforcer to being their friend to (hopefully) spurring them on to a deeper love for Christ. i have just met them and each one seems to come from a different background, interested and plugged in to different things. i am counting on God's work to bring the hall together. nothing succeeds outside of his control.
