4 down, 36 to go!

What an interesting day! :) Praise God for this wonderful weather in Sugar Land!

My good deed today wasn't really an action. Well i guess you can say it's an action, but it was more spoken rather than done.. anyways, i found out that one of my boss's father in law passed away recently through cancer. She had told me that the past weekend he had troubles so he was sent to the hospital. and i guess he passed away... today she left some things on my desk to work on and when i finished i put it back on her desk with a sticky note saying "feel better -tina". Secondly, the lady who sits in the cubicle next to me doesn't really talk to me much but i know that she is christian/catholic because i can hear her on the phone talking to her daughter about God a lot. i know i'm eavesdropping, but it's kind of hard not to! anyways, today i told her that i really liked her butterflies/dragonflies on her cubicle :) :) she looked very happy to hear that!

Today i showed God's love through words, which are also very powerful!

3 down, 37 to go!

I feel like my math is wearing down every time i write my blog title.. i.e. (3 down, 37 to go) :)

so i was feeling very very happy today because i had no school due to underclassmen taking the TAKS! although i am sick, i just felt happy!

Before i was taking my nap today, my friend called me. I picked up disturbed because i was almost asleep.. She asked me various questions about FAFSA and financial aid. Thankfully, God gave me the experience of going to UH today to get those things done! I knew exactly what to tell her and how to help! I felt so happy to help her because I receive help from my friends on lots of information also! At the end of the phone conversation, I told her to feel free to ask me whenever she needs help!

I need to stop pleasing others around me, including myself, and start pleasing God.

Fasting tonight,

day three

coffee + prayer for a friend :)

last night, i was praying for a friend, who was desperately looking for a job, and i just felt God's confirmation that her job is coming real soon! i was so excited, so i went to her place and prayed for her today! i told her that i feel God is opening doors for her! i also got her some coffee to cheer her up :)

oh, happy day,

ann

2 down, 38 to go!

Hmmmm, how to explain this day. Well like yesterday, i was anticipating what my good deed would be! School ended and I had not done anything notable! okay so i was at work minding my own business and my co-worker who is also a student asks me to borrow 25 cents. What a great opportunity to be giving :) so thank God, i perfectly had 5 nickels to give him since vending machines don't take pennies!

God is LOVE<3

day two

i was so frustrated with myself today, because i missed an act of love in my journalism class! the girl sitting behind me was asking around for a tissue, and i had a pack in my backpack, but i just didn't move myself to give it to her! ugh...

today's act of love: giving homemade cookies to a friend!

i bought a dozen of homemade cookies from a friend last week to support his mission trip during spring break to dominican republic! they're delicious, but i definitely can't finish them all by myself!

four exams next week,

1 down, 39 to go :)

This was my first day, as well as Ann's, on this spiritual journey! at first i wasn't too sure what was going to be my act of love and was really anticipating it.

My friend was really really nervous about her speech she had to give for the next class so i was giving her words of encouragement. Then out of no where, she asked me to pray for her. This all happened in a time span of about 2 minutes because we were walking in the hallway. so i said a quick prayer for her out loud :)

Pray for Chile<3

day one

it's the beginning of a beautiful journey!

my "act of love" for today was doing a favor for a friend.

she was sick, so she couldn't come to class.

i got her clicker and answered questions for her, so she would get participation points.

unconditional love is when we don't care about whether we get anything in return, where we don't seek our own benefits but for those of others, just like how God gave His son to die for people undeserving of His grace.

fasting,

ann
