*Gasp*

  So it's the last day of April and I'm wondering where in the world the time has gone. Yes I have been anxiously awaiting warmer weather for volleyball but now it's like woah... we're practically in May! Which would mean June is coming up quick and everything that I had written down on my list of things to be accomplished by then don't look too good.

Venting...

  As I'm sitting here reflecting and contemplating on the day's events I'm in between feeling fine and just outright frustrated. I know that I have no control over what happens in the day but I know that I can control how I react to it. However... I just seem to have a hard time dealing with things that aggravate me,

Capable Of Seeing the Invisible

"Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal." 2 Corinthians 3:16-18

  Knowing that even though I have rough times or when I'm having to deal with my anger in the moment... when I shift my focus to Christ and think of what He is to me and what He's done for me, it helps to realize that the real reward isn't something I can physically see. It's spiritual, eternal. Learning to train myself to view things in this way is sometimes a challenge but it is very good practice. Material things are just temporary so I shouldn't lose heart when it comes to something like that. There's something better.
