God Works in Mysterious Ways...

I'm going to tell you a little story, titled as above, or if you like, "Why My Spring Break Won't Suck Now". I really wanted to go to Shack on the Rox, because I didn't get to go to Shack on the Lake, and because Jim and Brittany are getting married there (woot!). The only problem is, dorms close for Spring Break on Saturday and there was no way I could get back here on Monday morning. The parental units were glad I wanted to go, but things didn't look good. So I asked God about it, and I got, "Let the deadline pass." So I was a little mopey, but I said ok. Because I'm really trying to work on the "listening to God, who is a lot smarter than me" thing. So Saturday night at Amy and Vicky's, I'm talking to Stephanie and I explain why I'm not going to Shack on the Rox. And being the kind, benevolent girl she is, she says that for future reference, I can crash with her and the other Gibbes Court girls when something like that comes up. So, I'm like, coolies.

Then today, I get this email that Shack on the Rox is still on. And there's spots left. I am not ashamed to say I did a happy dance. Then I promptly emailed Christine and said, Sign me up. So yay, I can go to Shack on the Rox! It is sad that there is not an English onomatopoeia for a happy girly scream, but there is in Japanese. And this is definitely a kyaa! moment. So excuse me. Kyaa!!! *jumps up and down*

Liza, you are a rockin' girl and it's good to have you around. I must say you are an encouragement because of the joy that I see in you. You're truely in love and are "obsessed with God" and it shows. Thanks for that!
