Scripture Readings

I have started this "Scripture Reading Plan". I am planning on reading the majority of Pslams in 31 days. Can I do it? Can I be that committed? I don't know. I feel like I have too much on my plate already to spare 30mins of my day reading God's word. But if I can take the time to watch Pretty Little Liars, One Tree Hill and Grey's Anatomy,  I can make time for the maker of this earth. So I am bringing you on this journey with me. If/when I find mentionable verses, I will be posting them. I hope you enjoy them :)

"The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the day of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever" Psalm 23

Peace

Psalm 29:11

New International Version (NIV)

¹¹ The LORD gives strength to his people;
   the LORD blesses his people with peace.

FInal Exams

Is it possible to have one's whole mind and body on fast speed but then have his or her soul in another? My mind is constantly in future mode. Final exams are in a little over two weeks; which means final papers and projects are due this week and the next. My mind is trying to process all the future due date and group meetings, while also trying to plan my studying habits for my final exams. Because of the overflow of meetings and homework, my body is in constant rush; pushing it's way to the next work destination. Yet, among all the hustle and bustle, my heart is screaming at me to slooooooooow dooooown!

I find it funny, at times we freak out about meeting a due date or a final paper-when in the whole realm of it- within a few weeks we forget what we were stressing out about and find something else to obsess over. 

So is the freaking out and the sprint to finish worth it? Is it even possible to slow down? Is it possible for my whole being be at the same slow pase? Or is life full of freak outs and due dates to test us? 

James 1:2-4
Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.

"My Wish"

I hope that the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
And each road leads you where you want to go,
And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' till you find the window,
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,

But more than anything, more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
And you always give more than you take.

But more than anything, yeah, and more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

Yeah, this, is my wish.

This is my wish
I hope you know somebody loves you
May all your dreams stay big
