Random

Oh my, I haven't posted in a bit!

Here are some entirely random thoughts/schedule bits:

1 week until Territorial Social Services Conferences.
10 days until my beautiful cousin, Sarah, gets married.
2 weeks until Divisional Business Seminar.
20 days until SACEP (+ I get to see the best friend - Chrissy).

My mind has been swimming with the events of the news in the recent hours, days, and weeks. I do not know how to process them all. I can become lost in my thoughts if I am not careful.

Yet Lord, through all of the days, may my heart focus Heavenward. May I not allow myself to be swept up in the sensationalism of this world. May I always remember who I am and Whose I am.

William Booth, the founder of The Salvation Army, once wrote the following:
"For Thy sake I once more separate myself from the world, from its amusements, from its friendships, from its fashions, from its sins-and here and now in the presence of my General and of my comrades I promise that , as a Salvation Army officer, I will follow Thee with all my heart."

"Search me and know my heart, O God. Test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me and lead me in the road everlasting." Psalm 139:23-24
