Well, finals are over and the storm has passed. [and possibly so have I] I feel blessed to have made it this far considering my frustration my 4th year. It seems that I am actually supposed to become a Physical Therapist. Who would have thought? With that said, I for sure could not have made it without the strength I have received from The Lord. I passed Kines my 4th year by, like, .something of a percentrage. A miracle? I think so. This year, Mike Cibulka so graciously rounded up our Ortho test grades by what seems like it had to be 20 points for the whole class to pass (talk about a terrible final). So today, I reflect.
I am moved by a quote from the famous C.S. Lewis. I think it is true for most of my life and the lives in America.
"If we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday by the sea. We are far too easily pleased."
Amen.
