Hoopoe!

Something very exciting just happened to me! I discovered my new favorite animal! Its called a Hoopoe (pronounced "who-poo" haha! :)) I was on this wonderful website sporkle.com and i was doing a quiz on animals from the Bible. Apparently, in Leviticus 11:19, the hoopoe is mentioned. Naturally, I googled it and look at what i found!!!

This weekend I really need to decide on a place to live. Courtney and I are really set on being room mates but we just can't seem to find the right place. After a day full of dramatic over-thinking and worry, we watched a movie to take our mind off the stress. By the end, we knew it was silly to worry because God will always provide for us!

"I believe in wise planning, but if after doing all you are able to do, you still are fearful of the future, the Lord says, 'Don't worry.'"

Our options so far:

1. Apply for on campus housing and either end up in a better dorm, end up in the same dorm that we don't like, or not get chosen in the lottery at all.
2. Live in University Highlands, but it will be really expensive to pay for it over the summer, meaning no camp :(
3. Sarah Herbert told us about a friend who was looking for 3 room mates. Its a good place to live but the email address we were giving to contact them led us to nowhere.
4. Our small group leader Lucy is moving out of her downstairs apartment in a cute little house with 2 girls living upstairs and they are looking for someone to move in. I have been to the house and it is soooo pretty! It is the best and cheapest option but there is not AppalCart (hate that thing!) route so we would both need cars.
5. Keep looking for places!!

I recently started read the book Crazy Love by Frances Chan. It was honestly a life changing read! It took me three days to finish it and there were moments where i just had to stop and literally just sit and do nothing. As a result, I have decided to work more on loving people. I will say that I am willing to do anything for anyone, expecting nothing in return, even for those who have hurt me.
