There are some days so vivid that simply speaking of them can't do them justice.

That doesn't mean I won't try.

I think there, first, must be some significance to me always being running late leaving for class, spiritually.

I heard a classmate mention something that really impressed me, and had an impact on me today, and it was something like this:

"Today is a great day, because today we are one day closer to our salvation than we were yesterday."

I was pretty awestruck by that.

I spent time at work tonight, and realized how different it can be when different people are working with me.

I have a friend at work that suffers from chronic headaches, and I constantly wonder what role they play in the plan God has for her. I don't mean that as a question of His good will, I just wonder about things like that. The truth is, to know that it IS part of an amazing plan for her life, and the fact that I'm blind to it, just shows me how amazing and how beautiful God truly is.

After spending some time in an unfinished apartment complex, I came home to something that was timed perfectly in keeping me awake long enough to help out a friend. This, I think was something that showed how God can act and intervene in our lives, if we look hard enough for the root of things, which is always Him.

I came home tonight to see that the first official picture from a movie I am beyond excited about was posted online. After viewing this picture for more time than I'd willingly like to admit, I heard from a friend, and talked him through his drive home from his far away destination.

I see God here because that bit of information that excited me kept me up and awake long enough for my friend to call me, so that I was there to help out when the time came. God's timing is amazing to me.

What on this earth could possibly amount to that which God has set up for us in Himself?
