gosh. I've been reading and listening to updates from the earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan yesterday and my heart is hurting. praying that the Lord would provide peace, comfort and healing to the broken. and that through the destruction, he would be made known.
i hate that it takes a catastropic event for my heart to be turned towards people on the other side of the globe. i so easily forget how big this world is and how small i am. i get wrapped up in my struggles.. and midterms... and what i'm going to do for dinner.. that i so rarely think about life outside of the US. or Texas. or even College Station. digusting. so today, i'm praying that God would radically alter my worldview and increase my awareness of both the suffering and joy among his people all over our planet.
on a thankful note- i'm so blessed! Dallas this weekend for family, relaxation, some spring shopping and good food. Spring break and a whole week of no class. gorgeous weather in Aggieland. AND in just six days, Russell and i make a mini-roadtrip to austin to see Cirque de Soleil. can't wait!!
that's all for now.
