This is Sara...
I'm sure you remember her from a few days ago. Sara is getting ready to leave me and head off to Italy for 10 months, hence the messy room :) Now, her leaving for that long is not really worth rejoicing in. But, having the kind of friend that you can just sit on the bed and talk about boys with while she packs, is. Having someone that you can go on adventures to Target with, is. Having someone you can eat breakfast for dinner with, is. Having someone you can share your sins and struggles with, is. So tonight, I'm rejoicing in my friendship with Sara once again.
In an effort to "rejoice always" I will be posting thoughts each day about the best part of my day.
4Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. Phillipians 4:4-9
Ha. I rejoice in those same things!! I love that you can sit on my bed and watch me pack and help me decide what I do and don't need to take...and talk about boys with me. I am going to miss you...like, a ridiculous amount. True.
