chapter fifty.
i can't wait to be in heaven some day where i will get to sing with the angels and all my brothers and sisters at any time that i want to.
when i sit inside downtown church and listen --- and i get caught up in how beautiful it is...i can only imagine what heaven will be like.
i had such a good day today.
i went to church this morning with 2 of my favorite people.
i spent almost 2 hours eating @ lenny's with 9 or 10 people --- and laughed so much.
it can be so fun here if you just let it.
i came back to the room to take a nap...but instead i got sucked in by lifetime! [television for women! hah.]
i should stop watching lifetime movies.
but i did finally fall asleep...for an hour or so. and it was quite refreshing.
i went to the caf with rachel klemmer and i ate a bunch of pears and we visited.
and then came back to my room where she sat on the bunk bed and kept me company while i really cleaned up my horrifically messy room.
chelsie and tyler joined us and we headed to downtown.
so pure, so unadulterated.
so beautiful.
this morning, i went to this church called fellowship bible church.
and, it was nice.
but, the thing that i enjoyed most was the lesson.
while some people made fun of or brushed it off because they aren't married - it was a lesson that was so applicable to relationships as well as friendships.
he talked about how a woman's deepest need is to feel loved and a man's deepest need is to feel respected.
he derived that from the verses in ephesians 5 that talk about a wife submitting to her husband and the husband loving his wife like Christ loved the church.
it was amazing how much sense everything he was saying made.
if a wife says something to her husband that makes him feel disrespected, he could in turn say something to her that will make her feel unloved, and then she would go again and say something to make him feel disrespected and so on and so forth.
and i'm sure none of this is making sense -
but it did when he said it.
it just said a lot about how to deal with the opposite sex -
and how boys don't think like girls and vice versa.
and you just have to take all of that into account.
i went to LR yesterday w/ my suitemates lauren and amber and the girl across the hall, katie.
it was a lot of fun.
it's so nice to have friends in different groups.
and it's so nice to meet people.
i'm going to memphis in....5 days!
hooray.
tomorrow is long.
class till 3.
work till 5.
spring sing from 6-8.
coach's meeting @ 8.
sigh.
it's going by so quickly.
