I will hold nothing back

Worship is not just the songs I sing; it is my lifestyle. It will be passionate. It will be driven. It will demand an explanation. I will be open; I will be vulnerable. I will stay broken and humble at the feet of Jesus. I will live with such intensity that I must continually seek God's presence so I don't burn out. I will seek God first in everything. I will be filled so I can pour myself out over and over. I will desire nothing but to sit at the feet of Jesus and cry, "Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come." I will live for the glory of my Savior.

Quick update

Well, school starts tomorrow, and the closer it comes, the more I think, "What have I gotten myself into?!" :) Actually, I'm getting excited, too. I'll be able to see friends that I haven't seen in years, and see them more often! The part that has me concerned is a couple of the classes. One reason is that it is really hard--and I do mean really hard--to get into Nursing school at NDSU. I'm gonna be working my tail off day and night to get in. However, I've finally gotten it through my head that I'm just going to do my absolute best and leave the results up to God (I know that's how it should always be, but it's hard to leave it in His hands sometimes). The other reason is a bit more complex. I'm taking Psychology (yuck!) this semester, and I'm not looking forward to having to listen to all their humanist, socialist, materialist propaganda. I've never been one to keep silent about my beliefs and opinions (just ask Hannah!), so it might be hard not to get into trouble in class. But, I trust God to bring me through, and maybe it'll be an opportunity to witness to my classmates.

We had an absolutely fantastic weekend, but unfortunately, at this point I can't post any pictures. We had a bit of a scare last night when my computer almost contracted a nasty virus, and so it's out of use until my dad can fix it. When it's up and running, I'll post more about that. All I'll say right now is that we had a fabulous time hanging out with friends and family.
