Be Joyful
I can’t believe that the Semester is already coming to a close. Finals week is now upon us, and to me it seems like this semester has just flown by. As the semester ends it might seem really daunting to head back home, start a new job, enter into a big internship, moving out of your place, and leaving all of your college friends. Trust me, I get it my friends joke that I have separation anxiety, change can be scary and overwhelming. But as change come there is so much
to be grateful for from this past year and everything that is going to happen soon.
There is so much to look forward to and so much to be thankful for. During this time, I encourage you to reflect on this past semester and all the things you may be grateful for. I am going to share a portion of my list with you.
Walking around campus and seeing the trees grow leaves and flowers bloom again
Passing my classes
Having wonderful friends
Getting a new internship
Finding my new job passion
Being able to attend church every Sunday
Sunday night dinners
Living with my best friend
Getting my Auburn ring
Seeing Samford lawn become full again with people hanging out
Being able to open my window and smelling the fresh spring air
When my friends buy me flowers
These are just a few moments from this semester that I am so grateful for and joyous about. While there are so many more, I could share with you, I encourage you to find your own moments.
Psalm 16:11 “You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy: at
your rights hand are pleasures forevermore.”
