It started blizzarding right when I set foot outside.
I lost my student ID card, so I couldn't print out my resume.
I went to the wrong communications building (why are there two?) and had to sprint in the slippery wetness to the very opposite side of campus (in rain boots) and showed up drenched and quite pink for my interview.
I spent 4 hours putting together a design brief for the the Bean Natural History museum journal and it exploded and committed suicide, right after my boss said she liked it.
I ended up staying on campus for 14 hours (8-10 baby)
My phone died right in the middle of the day
And I missed my team's first soccer tournament game because I had class.
But the strangest thing?
Today was awesome. It was incredible. Though all these "unfortunate" things kept happening one after another, I felt this constant sense of peace. I felt my tongue being loosed, and my thoughts often turning to the Lord. Honestly, I just felt this incredible sense of optimism and calm amid all of the hectic stress and deadlines. I thought this was curious, considering how hard it has been to be so positive as of late. With a constant list of to-do's there seems to be little time for me to do basic things... let alone enjoy the ride.
Anywho, I had told a good amount of people about this interview and some said that they would pray for me. You know what? I know they did. I literally felt their faithful requests being answered. We have the opportunity to bless the lives of those we love (and hate) with prayer. It has the power to change everything, if we pray with a sincere heart, real intent, and having faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
