well i havent blogged in a while. might as well. softball this past weekend was quite fun. and tiring. and at times a little intense. but in the end, all in all, it was a great time of fellowship throughout the season. thanks to everyone. absolutely everyone. other than that, nothing much has been going on. how sad :) but thats okay. today i played some basketball with school friends who called me up. which was nice. it was weird. these were ppl who i spent 5 years with. and i hadnt seen them since summer first started. my other friend regarded, 'you guys act like you don't know each other.' and it really seemed that way. it was really odd. theyre really great people, and i count them all as friends, but friends under Christ just have a bond that's unexchangeable.
yes. so university is coming up. sooner that i expected. in one week. im scared outta my mind. im trying not to show it, but i really am. im not really good at meeting new ppl and making friends. but i guess i should do my best to try. hopefully people wont be too mean to me and like give me wedgies and stuff. i dunno. do they do that kinda stuff in university? i expect people to be smarter, but jon says that it really isnt the case. i always thought that university would weed out all the stupid people. cuz i have a really low tolerance for them. but meh. i guess i hafta learn to deal with ppl of all different sorts.
saturday is fast approaching. john 4.24. interesting. not really ready. kinda scared bout that too. i dunno. its odd. we really dont have anyhting under control, but maybe thats good cuz then we can depend on God more. which is always good.
so my friend sent me an email today. totally out of the blue. we were really tight back in like.. grade 11. and we've had some of the funnest times imaginable. shes one of the nicest people ive ever met. honestly. she was a really cool kid and popular girl at school. really with the in crowd. and i was this geeky little giftie. and she totally gave me a chance to be her friend and become close. after grade 11 we kinda drifted apart, just cuz of different groups of friends and stuff, but getting that email today was great. it totally made my day. shes still just as cool as ever.
so theres this song that i heard today. its actually a hymn by isaac watts (when i survey) and i heard it redone by derek webb. its actually on the new cd. but yah. it's called i boast no more. and it just talks about how everything is done and finished in Jesus Christ. we have nothing left to do or accomplish, cuz Jesus has done it all. check it out.
No More My God, I boast no more
Of all the duties I have done
I quit the hopes I held before,
To trust the merits of Thy Son
No more my God
No more my God
No more my God
I boast no more.
Now, for the loss I bear his name,
What was my gain I count my loss
My former pride I call my shame
And nail my glory to His cross
Yes, and I must, I will esteem
All things but loss for Jesus' sake
O may my soul be found in Him
And of His righteousness partake
Amen, amen
The best obedience of my hands
Dares not appear before Thy throne
But faith can answer Thy demands
By pleading what my Lord has done
