As I sit in class

It's about 11:10am and I have punted the semester. I have 2 papers, and a group project due within the next 12 days of class. My teacher is talking about poverty, and I am learning i am very good at typing while looking at the slides. Great to know when I take school seriously for next semester. I have probably said too much to anyone not in college.

I just contributed to the discussion so I don't feel bad about continuing to write this.

SO since I haven't really updated this for a few weeks now, I feel now is a better time then ever. SUPPORT! Support, support, support. Support has been great, and not so great. God has blessed me so much with the support He has raised for this trip. Finding more money then expected in accounts, friends owing me money, loving father, aunt and uncle (and praying for grandparents, brother and girlfriend, and possibly her family...? We shall see). Friends sound like a cheap way, but when I told him to write me a support check, he put it like this, "now I feel like I am actually supporting you." As of right now, I stand over 50% and could not be more blessed by God and the people who are willing to support me.

The only downfall is that I am in crunch time for school. 12 days of class left before finals. Just because I have punted the semester doesn't mean I won't do the work, just that I am horribly unmotivated to do work (more so now then at the beginning or middle of the semester). It is cutting into a lot; my support raising time, prayer, and time with God. It's not an excuse and I have finally noticed it over the past week so I am getting back to it this week.

So now for the serious part. Prayer list. I will be, and I ask that you be a part of this, praying for:
1. My time with God in the word and in prayer
2. Motivation To finish school strong
3. Support to come in, not just for me but for the entire team. I love my team and want to have this experience with all of them.

So until next post, I hope you will be praying along with me and can't wait to tell you all more about God's work in all of this!... GO CAPS!
