Weekend before finals week

Well, dead week is over and now it is time for finals. I did fairly well on my biology lab exam, I got a 42 out of 50. I love it when the Lord tells me the answers especially on tests. There was one station during the exam where I had to tell what the common name of two skulls. The problem was that they were both skulls of foxes and I head to answer whether they were the Arctic Fox, the Grey Fox, Swift Fox or the Red Fox. I knew that they were foxes, but which one? I put down what I thought they were, but I really was guessing and then I felt the Holy Spirit whisper that they were the Arctic and the Grey Fox. I responded something like, "What?!?!? Yeah right." But I realized that if the Lord was saying something, I really should trust what He is saying, even on a final. Long story short, He was right and I did well on the exam.
I got to go and watch my nephew Tyler in a Christmas play at his church this morning. He got to play the angel Gabriel and he did a great job, so cool!!! They did a great job in presenting teh story of Christmas from the point of view of the angels. I then got to take my niece Montana back to my sisters house while they all stayed at chruch for the second service. Montana has Tuberous Sclerosis, and it causes her to have seizures, but she is 4 years old and I love her to death! We got to play tea party and in general hang out. The Lord really layed a burden of prayer for her on my heart and I can't wait to seek the Lord for her healing.
As we were having our tea party, I really came to realize another facet of the Lord. How ridiculous does it look to normal adults for a 22 year old to be having a make believe tea party with a 4 year old??? I loved it, every minute of it. I really began to realize that this is how the Lord feels in a way when we come to spend time with Him. It may seem ridiculous, how can we possibly be in the presence of the Most Holy God, but He loves every minute that we spend with Him.
I love having study parties in my room, especially when we get stuff done. I also really like the Seahawks playing well and the fact that I have a few days left in this semester. But most of all, I love procrastinating homework and studying to write on this blog!!!
