His Glory Fills the Earth

I just had such a good day today! I really think the sun had something to do with it- it was so glorious! The morning was filled with heavy fog and ice but the afternoon proved to be absolutely blissful. I went on a walk by the Columbia with my good friend Vika. Then later went over to the Rodin Residence and had a really good time with the girls. Overall just an amazing day. Praise God for giving us such glorious sunny weather in the midst of the common Washington rain. Also wanted to mention that I tried Savona Coffee House for the first time today and absolutely loved it- I really think its the best coffee I have ever had (I tried the Macadamia Nut White Mocha). If you're ever walking Columbia before 4 pm go support your local economy and check em out. Here's their facebook page: Savona Coffee House FB Page

Here is a visual representation of today :)

Playlist

Writing research papers is no easy task. It requires lots of snacks, breaks, and temporary moments of sheer insanity- the most important thing though?- An awesome playlist. Lately I have been favoring RATATAT. Simply because I work best under pressure and their music makes me feel anxious and gives me a good boost of adrenaline. I know that's not healthy in the long run- but for writing extensive essays, it will do. Click Here for what I've been listening to endlessly for about 3 days now

Doubt

This week I have been reflecting on where I am in my life and my level of contentment and confidence in what I am doing. I am in a CS Lewis book club where we are reading Screwtape Letters and it has caused me to be more aware of which thoughts the devil puts into my head and how hard he works to tear me down. I have exactly the life that I pictured I would and the life that I wanted and planned for. Along the way I had a lot of hardships, but ultimately God still gave me what I wanted. What is baffling for me is that the devil can give me so much doubt and discontentment even in situations that I know are right for my life. I realized that there won't be a moment in my life where I will be perfectly content and be absolutely happy about every aspect in my life- not without a fight at least. Reading this book has showed me how actively I have to fight every day to stay alert and listen to the voice of God and tell myself truth instead of listening to the lies that the devil tries ...
