I call you grace.

I waited.
I wondered for a long time if mending would ever come.
But You asked that I be patient.
That I wait for the treasures You had in store.
And as I waited and wondered and pondered and plundered
You began to form a love I did not know was possible.
It has caused me to rethink everything.
This love is more than I know what to do with.
More than I know how to feel.
More than I know how to describe.
And most of all, more than I deserve.

They paved paradise to put up a parking lot.

I do so much.
And yet I spend so much time doing absolutely nothing.
My classes are a waste.
I sit in on meetings more often than I participate.
Being successful does not mean that I am fulfilling my purpose.
This has been an interesting lesson to learn.
Now that I am ready to live out my purpose in whatever capacity that may be, how do I pretend to be passionate about the things that made me a success?
