Woah-Oh, We're Halfway There

While I have the time, I thought I'd tell you a little about the wonders of front desk life. It is a hard, rigorous job that requires intense training and strenuous hours, and lots of mental energy. Haha, not really. It can be stressful at times but at others we just crawl onto the semi-vacuumed floor behind the counter and get trapped in mail boxes. #jubilantjoy

Really, I've been loving my job. God is doing such wonderful things in my heart and life, and I have grown so remarkably close with my roomies. This has only been through His answer to prayer. And boy, has He been answering.

Christ has changed my heart and spirit this summer. I am more peaceful, joyful, confident, strong and unified than ever, and that is simply because I am abiding in Him and His Word. I learned this morning that His Word brings life. If He spoke all of creation into existence, how much more will His written Word change my heart?

This summer is officially halfway over, and I'm actually disappointed about that. This place is now my home. My life is never going to be the same after this summer. God has done great things.

Also, I feel kind of totally like a Boss because now I can answer phones with no problem and also work behind the front desk with ease. It couldn't be more magical if Wes Anderson wrote the script of my life.

Things to Appreciate: This

If I was a Polaroid, this is the Polaroid picture I would be. One of Andrew Garfield, cheerful and glee about something in the forest. Note the laughter. The good mirth. The wondrous cheer. How can anyone take his joy away? HOW 

And look!
What's that!
Another Polaroid?!

I will eventually post something of meaning, I promise. Until then.

Things I Saw From the Front Desk

Children having a tissue war;
People playing corn hole;
The lights flickering on and off

A girl who was peeved;
A kid that licked the windows profusely;
Someone asking for more towels, even when there were no more towels to give

Front desk life has been grand.
And I have so much to say that it would probably take no less than 10,000 infinities to tell you all that's been happening (although some infinities are shorter than other infinities, mind you), but these random insights will have to suffice for now. I long to sit and write lengthy blog posts again but I haven't the ability.

Peace out, my good people.
