2nd Year Anniversary

Today was the 2nd year anniversary of my relationship with Jesus and so much happened that I felt the need to share it all. Well, I went to the gym and nothing really interesting happened but I ran a good mile I guess. But on my walk home I was thinking about what I should do today and something popper in my head: make some food for some homeless and go around and pray for them. I went with my good guy friend as my bodyguard as advised by my roommate.

Truly, it was one of the best things I ever done. A lot of really special people I met. I wish though I was able to listen more to there stories. I don’t know why I didn’t. I think when I do this again, which I most definitely will, I will ask them more questions and bring more food and maybe some money. One man I met, man he had it bad. He was sitting all alone and was hunched over. We couldn’t tell if he was homeless or not for sure. So in my head, I had to weight the reward against the risk. If he wasn’t homeless, I would probably offend him. If he was, he probably needed some help and needed it bad. So obviously, I took the chance. When he lifted his head, I could see his eyes were very red and swollen. He wouldn’t talk very much, only a few words at a time. I feel like he probably had a lot of drug problems. But when I was praying, he kept telling me to praise the Lord for everything and so I did. I thanked God for the grass and the blue sky and the park we were at and I just continued. I think about him and I still hurt and want to cry. I was truly so happy I went.

When I do something like this, I also feel though that I am fighting taking this credit for me. I want to feel like a good person but I am not a good person. I am saved and a child of the Great God who changes my heart to more like His. I think this idea is so beautiful. To think, that we can be transformed to do these amazing things and for some who is close to the Lord, that person can willingly admit it is not them doing this, but the Lord. To do such great things but to be so humble. Amazing.

Well, on the ride back to our campus, I was talking to my friend. He mentioned half handedly that the University of Washington created a musical theatre degree! I was shocked and I thought to myself immediately “I’m going there.” You see, we go to a university in Washington. Right now I am studying Theatre-Acting and probably dance and I take voice lessons on the side to all prepare myself for a musical theatre degree. And in Washington, prior to this new development, there was only one state school that had musical theatre and it’s in the middle nowhere. I could have gone there but I would have gone crazy. But now UW!!!! But the application process is done because I would totally be there fall if I could. So I am trying to figure out what to do, going crazy because this is exactly what I need! And I always said I would love to go to UW if they had what I needed and now they do! I just really don’t know what to do. Kind of going crazy right now. But I am just giving it to the Lord at this point because I need sleep and it would be far off in the future.

But anyways, that was my day.
