May the glory of the Lord be our first and most important focus. May He be at the center of all we seek. May His plans become ours and His purpose our own. May we aim to please Him.

Look where you’ve come from. Look where you are now. Know that you’ve grown. Know that I’m proud.

One thing that comes with being a student (in college or otherwise) is that inevitably mistakes will be made, exams will be failed, and homework assignments will be forgotten. It’s frustrating but it’s true. The blessing is that those mistakes and failures do not lessen your worth. God has created you for a purpose and He gives you strength to continue. When we fail, He stands beside us and picks us back up again. His love for us, His plan for us, it doesn’t change based on grades or successes or failures. His love stays the same every day. What a freeing blessing!

Happy Monday! May you find rest in the busyness of life. May you find a quiet moment to breathe in His peace and to gather up strength to keep going. I hope you know that you can. I pray you believe that your worth a break.

Blessed to have a family that preaches the Word to me daily, a family that reminds of the Truth. There are few things that I love more than just spending a couple of days with my family, especially during stressful weeks of school. Do you have any family traditions?

Tuesdays are some of my favorite days on campus. I love having the opportunity to come together as a community to worship the Lord in the midst of the confusion that studying in college can bring. RUF and similar ministries have been such an encouragement! I remember freshman year, just not having the energy to leave my room to go “people.” I was so afraid of being drained and misunderstood. I thought I wasn’t good enough, not worthy of letting go of burdens. But, as I’ve learned to let go and trust God, I’ve urged myself to go regularly. Now I look forward to those couple of hours when I can commune in the midst of His glory. Because worship isn’t about hiding away until you feel “good enough” or “perfect,” it’s about learning to say, “I’m not perfect and that’s okay.” Because at the end of the day, He will love you just the same. Do you have Sunday School, mission groups, or community Bible studies that you look forward to every week? How do you go even when it’s tiring?
