Let me tell ya, this past week has been something else. I moved into my new apartment, and it was not what I expected move-in to be like. I waited an eternity to get my apartment keys, and then I had to move in by myself because my mom had to leave to go back home, while I was still in line for my keys. My apartment is so nice and it was definitely worth the wait. But lately, it's just been test after test. I went to church yesterday morning and I was so excited to be back at my church in Fort Myers, and right after church, I got in my car and went to pick up roommate, and when I was on the way back to my apartment I noticed my car shaking, and making weird noises.

I flipped out and started crying and called my mom. I ended up taking my car somewhere and it turned out that I needed to get my brakes fixed. I sat in the auto place today for four whole hours while they diagnosed my car and fixed it. When the man came back to me, he not only told me that I needed to get my brakes fixed, but I also need new tires, and an oil change soon. I sighed and just thought to myself "why is this all happening to me right now?"

It is just one frustration after another lately. I am a Christian so I know God is using these frustrations to grow me, but I will never understand how waiting in line for keys for 3 hours, and getting bad news about my car will help me grow. God works in weird ways, and I am not giving up hope yet.

God is about to use me in so many ways this semester on the Delight team, and I am waiting to see if that is why He is putting me through so many trials right now. It is time to turn back to the Word and stop running away from God.
