ugly cap and gown picture, random insights

it's sad that my most recent update is to copy and paste the html coding of an online quiz I took.

Your Dominant Thinking Style: Visioning

You are very insightful and tend to make decisions based on your insights.
You focus on how things should be - even if you haven't worked out the details.

An idealist, thinking of the future helps you guide your path.
You tend to give others long-term direction and momentum.


I think this is pretty accurate...the visual part at least. I' not sure if I really give others "long-term direction and momentum." Then again, I am wrought with self-doubt.

at any rate, this semester has been crazy...not busy in terms of schoolwork, but a roller coaster in terms of new and old relationships and growth. God is taking me on a roller-coaster, and I've already thrown up a couple of times (metaphorically, folks). I feel like an Israelite right now...I've forsaken Him over and over and don't trust that He will provide, just as He already has. Job is a comfort right now...God is meeting me in my distress. He is wooing me from the jaws of distress to a spacious place free of restriction (Job 34?). I'm comforted that God knows me completely and loves me completely...He is the one romancing me, pursuing me because I am desirable to Him...even IN my sin, crap, and guilt. It's a beautiful picture, and it's reality!

I miss writing.
