Daffodils

Spring is trying its best to show, and two days ago, we enjoyed an 82 degree sunny day! It was absolutely an outside day so I grabbed a textbook and headed to a grassy area at the heart of campus to read. I've missed being fully submerged in creation, but I found a spot with a good amount of trees and enjoyed the feeling of grass on my bare feet. There are also patches of daffodils springing up all over the place which are stunning! The smell alone just makes me refreshed. Mom, I've been thinking of you every time I see them. They make me think of that verse in Matthew 6 that talks about the lilies: "Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these." I just looked around at the birds and remembered how God cares for everything...especially me! It was a much needed soul refreshing as I closed me eyes, listened to the birds, and felt the breeze full of God's presence.

I get so stressed out and busy with school/life that I forget what is important. Yesterday, I had 5 harddrives in my room that aren't mine and was editing 4 different projects at once! Ahhhh! But it's in those times when our dependence on God means the most. I'm learning about priorities daily and how God has to be #1 if I truly desire to live for him.
