A Gloomy Day...

So today the sun didn't appear once. And campus smelled horribly. I do not really know what that was all about. But all in all it was a good day...

Tonight I watched a documentary called "Beyond the Gates of Splendor," and wow, it was really inspiring to watch. It was about these 5 missionaries that were speared to death, and their families still remain as missionaries for the tribe that murdered their husbands, fathers, and grandfathers. It was really amazing to watch such an un-reached society have God brought to them. One woman stated that Jesus was speared and did not spear others in return, but instead died so that they could live. This was incredible to me because this woman could see God's glory in all her suffering. No matter what, in the good and in the bad times, God has His best intentions for us all. This documentary just inspired me to an even greater length to go when called. I was once scared to come to Baylor because I knew that God would only press harder on my heart to serve him through missions, and it is true. But I cannot run from the calling on my life.

Okay so today was good... really good. I love it when I just feel like I've made the most out of my day (even if I took a 3 hour nap!) Okay, well I can't wait for the weekend!! Just a few more days... :) Ahh.. I love it here!

Have a good one.
