There is such thing as a Hell...it's called College School Work.

So, I was excited to go home this weekend because 1. I haven't been home in a bazillion years I felt like, 2. I missed my dogs (yes, that is a good excuse), 3. Plenty of laundry to do (the laundry machines are school are too inconsistent), & 4. I was gonna be going on a pretty awesome date. However, I realized while packing my overexcessive amount of clothes that I don't need in one weekend that in two weeks I'll be on my extremely early spring break. However, the biggest concern wasn't what I was gonna do for spring break, but how I was gonna make it through alive these next two weeks with all my school work. 
Looking at my planner, I've never seen so many assignments, tests, papers, worthless homework things highlighted before in my entire life. It was already as if the last week of April was already here & the end of school was around the corner, but this was TWO WEEKS BEFORE SPRING BREAK. oh dear...
I went to bed last night with a lot on my mind & with all this school work I kinda started getting a little stressed. I woke up this morning whining about it raining & how I didn't want to go to my Greek class (its my only one on Monday at eleven, I know...pathetic). I think I groaned throughout class & groaned through lunch looking ahead to the week of spring break & not even wanting to be concerned about my work. I finally got my quiet time & I read Psalm 37:24 which says, "Though he falls, he will not be overwhelmed, because the Lord holds his hand."
Thank goodness God perseveres when I cannot. I'm a naturally strong-willed person but it is because of my faith I can be strong-willed. God will press on with me this week & the next & for the rest of my life which is the awesomest most amazing thing ever. God believes I can get through it although I whine & moan, He's the reason I can get out of bed when I don't wanna go to class, He's the reason I can get through all these assignments, He's the reason I can persevere in all things. 
So nonetheless, I'm looking SOOO forward to spring break. Getting there will be a complete back buster but thank goodness God is busting his back along with me.
God is good.
