Friday we had our second Greek test for the semester. I have really struggled in Greek this semester and I wished I was a better student. It takes a lot of time to devote to studying, and for me it takes a lot longer than other people to grasp something. For someone else it may take only an hour to memorize the vocab and know the forms and endings and such, but for me it takes several hours. I really studied hard for the test. We have a quiz every week, but only a few tests throughout the semester. I studied hard, but I still was so nervous going into it. Going into that room makes me nervous or something. I’m not sure what it is. But I tend to confuse myself and question myself and get nervous. I really psych myself out in that class. Anyway, I tried my hardest on the test. I did so much better than the last test. But we’ll see how it went. I don’t like disappointing myself, especially when it comes to school and academics, and I really don’t like disappointing my professors.
Anyway, these last few weeks of school are going to be CRAZY! There is so much to do for every class. I really am going to try hard to end well. It’s going to be hard, and it will take so much time to get it all done. But Cory and I keep encouraging each other that we can do it! Tomorrow we have a disputatio (debate) for Christian Doctrine over the atonement. It will be interesting. I’m nervous about it, but as long as all the teams clearly establish their appointed viewpoints, it will be good. The disputatios are a really neat way to learn about different ways of thinkings and different ideas the church has had to deal with.
My heart was truly blessed at church this morning. Pastor Ben talked about Nehemiah and his heart as a great leader. We went over Nehemiah 1, and dove into his prayer. It was a convicting and encouraging and humbling message. It was a really wonderful message.
Oh, and since the house in Florida closed last week, my parents were able to close on the house in Tennessee on Friday! Yay! It’s so wonderful how the Lord provides! It’s been quite a journey, having to move again in February after moving to Tennessee in August, but it all works out in the end, doesn’t it? And it’s all good!
Well, I’ll be off to the library soon, just working on stuff in my dorm now. It’s going to be a great week, because, as Cory likes to say and remind us, :) He is risen!
