Hey guys,
I'm starting to pack up for college and have been having such a hard time. I'm back and forth between tears and could really use some prayer. Specifically that I could do the stuff i need to get done and that God would just give me the strength i need to do this (not just the packing but also the whole dealing with reality thing...) Thank you so much. You are all so amazing and it means the world to know you're there.

They have discovered a joy which is a thousand times better than any pleasures of this sinful life. They are despised and persecuted, but they care not. They have overcome the world. These people, Donatus, are the Christians -- and I am one of them." --and so am I.

A Great Promise
Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given you, as I said to Moses...No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you. Be strong and of good courage, for to this people you shall divide as an inheritance the land which I swore to their fathers to give them. Only be strong and very courageous, that you many observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:3-9

I wish I had started earlier, definitely don't wait until the last minute. Just go through the stuff you have systematically and think "Am I gonna need this before Christmas?" As far as dealing with reality, you just gotta accept it. It's hard, I spent about 2.5 hours today doing just that (wow, I'm here for three months, I gotta just get my work done, and do it well and on time, and then I can go back home.) It's tough, I'm not gonna lie. Another thing is your network of friends. Use them. They're your friends for a reason. Do blog posting (like you (and ironically I) just did) about how you're having a hard time right now. Anyway, you know how to get a hold of me, if you need to vent, I'll have a listening ear, as long as I'm not in class (hint, in general, tuesday's until 11 your time, any time between 9:20 and 11, and any time after three (but before like 10) I'm not in class.) Anyway, just remember that you'll get back home, and enjoy yourself while you're there. You'll be fine.
