what wisdom said
I've had a really good day today. I started to go a little bit crazy yesterday- I was kerning so much, it was doing my head in! I'd been sitting in front of the computer for, like, three days straight, and it was awful. It isn't much fun living your life out of a story, as opposed to actually LIVING your life.
I had brunch with Ben today at the Blackbird Cafe on Cockle Bay. I've never been there during the day. I didn't realise how bright the furniture there actually was, because usually when I go it's dark and crowded and the music is really loud. We both had these yummy waffles with vanilla mascarpone and bananas and strawberries, yay! It was such a beautiful sunny day that we ended up just sitting in the sun overlooking that fake bay thing at Darling Harbour and talking. It was really nice.
Then I went to uni, and Andrew really really likes my book! Yay! I'm pretty pleased that he's so positive about things. So maybe all of that kerning was for a good purpose. I'm really looking forward to the project being over, though. Now I'm all dizzy (which is kind of fun but also uncomfortable) because I haven't had lunch yet, and it's 3:15pm, so I'd better go and grab some sushi soon.
The book I wrote ends something like this: "Wisdom itself once said, 'The truth will set you free.'" Jesus is defined in the Bible as wisdom (as well as love and a whole lot of other wonderful things), and He did say that "The truth will set you free". And it's true. As you may know, I have been SO confused lately. I haven't been able to sleep at night, because I'm battling stuff out in my brain- who to spend time with, where I'm going in the future, what happens to Kate and Toby. Even though I love my heart and all of the feelings within it, I have to say that quite often I don't understand what my own heart wants or feels. So I've been praying a lot lately that God will reveal what is in His heart, as well as my own. It gives me a lot of comfort to know that even though I don't understand myself a lot of the time, I know that God understands me. And God is in control of everything, even the tiny little blood cells in our veins. Isn't that amazing? I like how, also, in Colossians 3, God tells us to let the peace of Christ rule our hearts. Because I let emotions rule me quite often. I think that clarity is something that I have right now, and it feels so liberating. |
