I am prideful. And because I struggle with pride, I am highly susceptible to self-pity. Class work, readings, projects, emails, leadership positions, babysitting, struggling to be an attentive and emotionally engaged daughter, sister, friend, small group leader, and girlfriend...
Momentarily, I think my life is hard. Certainly I never verbalize it nor does the explicit thought run through my mind, but my heart is satiated with self-pity.
So focusing on some of the bajillion ways God loves me is a discipline in which I need to invest.

Things I am thankful for this week:
2. I realized am verbalizing the fact that I want to control not only my life, but other people's lives. AKA I distrust God and want to sit on the throne. So incredibly dangerous.
3. Beautiful NC weather!
4. Worshipful, sanctifying lunch dates with some of my favorite girls :)
5. Starbucks date with Laura & Morgan on Sunday afternoon.

6. Powerful runs this week--such a release.
7. Late night texts from Daddy :)
8. Small group on Tuesday night since we all went home Wednesday! We met at Royal Bean Coffee instead of my dorm room for a change of pace :)
9. Dwelling on God's glory / Being sobered every time I read the Word.
10. Trey & Ashley (my younger siblings) are on their spring break this week--which means hanging out with them during the day, not just when they get home from school/practice. Words cannot express how happy I am about this and how God has already used this extra time just by being at home less than a day.
