And just when I thought it couldn't get any worse...
I have another two exams next week, a reformation childrens party to plan and decorate for, two colleges to visit (and I have to apply and choose one of them), loads of homework, babysitting the Nyces on Friday, too many projects at work, physical theorpy, and a family to help take care of (Anna and Mom will be gone in Mississippi all week - So it is just Sarah and I doing housework).

If I make it through this semester alive and with my sanity, it will only be through the power of God. I could never do any of this myself. If I was relying on only my own strength I would have died by now. Praise be to God, who I know will bring me through. And praise be for the oppurtunites to learn how to juggle this many things.
*sings* Make me grateful, Lord, Make me grateful oh, Lord.

2 Corinthians 12:9-10
"Each time he said, "My gracious favor is all you need. My power works best in your weakness." So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may work through me. Since I know it is all for Christ's good, I am quite content with my weaknesses and with insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong."

1 Corinthians 1: 25 -31
"This "foolish" plan of God is far wiser than the wisest of human plans, and God's weakness is far stronger than the greatest of human strength. Remember, dear brothers and sisters, that few of you were wise in the world's eyes, or powerful, or wealthy when God called you. Instead, God deliberately chose things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise. And he chose those who are powerless to shame those who are powerful. God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important, so that no one can ever boast in the presence of God. God alone made it possible for you to be in Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made Christ to be wisdom itself. He is the one who made us acceptable to God. He made us pure and holy, and he gave himself to purchase our freedom. As the Scriptures say, "The person who wishes to boast should boast only of what the Lord has done."
