'member me?!?!

Hey friends - 'member me? the long lost blogger? i haven't read, commented on, or created anything bloggish since school has been kickin' my boooooootie! Big time kickin' but honestly, i luv it!!! i could be the eternal student -- so much to learn, so much to read, so many assignments, sooo little time! Life as a grad student! it might be hard but "grad student" sounds cool. i like it!

one day i'll be...the grad, the gradster, the grad-dio, the g-rad! enough of that!! can u say-- sleep depravation? hee, hee!

here's my deep ponderings for today...
i think i've learned something from c.c (the Reeves' dog) Pets and our relationship to God have some commonalities...

  • sometimes we come to the Lord just to sit with Him & enjoy being in His presence. (dogs do that, u know)
  • sometimes we come to the Lord because we are thirsty & hungry & He can feed us! (u make the dog connection from here on...) :-)
  • sometimes we "beg, beg, beg" for a treat -- sometimes He gives the treat to us (& sometimes He says "no" for our own good because He knows that what looks like a treat will not be for our overall best interest)
  • sometimes we need Him to help clean up the messes we make!
  • sometimes we have to get punished & we need lots of grace & forgiveness.
  • and last thought of today.... i want to expectantly "wait for His return!

I'm sure there's more but not today. please feel free to take this "bone & run with it!" hee, hee
