yay for sanctification!

my heart is heavy-ish right now. there is a very complicated reason for it, and i'll leave it at that. soooo today wasn't the best.

BUT there is redemption. my days of late have been full, good, and convicting. there's been kind of a theme for my past week...it has seemed like everywhere i go, someone or something is reminding me of my calling to BE Christ to people. an overwhelming prospect, but one that i am required to take on. i love Christ dearly, but is that fact about me obvious to other people? i have been in prayer about that a lot lately. which also leads me to a recent epiphany: i suddenly feel very called practically. i love to dwell in the academic world of ideas, but i have been surrounded lately by examples of practical Christianity...and that is an attractive thing. i love people, and i have a passion for justice. how can i use these? i'm intrigued to find out. in other words, i have even less of a concrete idea of what i am supposed to be doing after graduation...but i feel calm and even joyful. it is in God's hands, and He's done a great job so far.
