so i’m done with the semester (just took my last [math] final) and waiting for the grades… praise God - i did well i think – and i have no idea how. It’s funny… like i went into my final this morning, looked at it, and decided it would take me 40 min not 2 hours. buuut since we can’t have phones and i can’t walk i knew i’d be stuck there, so i took my time… oops? haha. half way thru i somehow stopped paying attention, and fell asleep (why then?!?!) i haven’t been able to sleep before or after it – 48 hours +ish – and that’s when i was able to… strange. anyways i still finished early despite everything. I mean i couldn’t even write a C the right way… i wrote it backwards and had to retry seven times before i got it right… so funny! i don’t know if all the chaos + knowing i still did well speaks to me being smart, or the class being dumb, or some combination, or God intervening, or society, or something…
So ya that was this last final and why am i writing this… and who even cares… what in the world…
seriously praying for all you guys who still have finals, you’re almost there!
in any case my erin’s gone doing birthday stuff and amber + laura are being productive (or pretending to i think… idk in any case they can’t or won’t talk to me… I wouldn’t talk to me right now lol) which means ummm i can’t sleep soooo anime, fate / stay night is pretty kool, don panini is um annoying, and death note’s hurting my brain so i had to stop hahahaha. This is better…… and really kool……
“And lay thy foundations with sapphires.”
— Isaiah 54:11
Not only that which is seen of the church of God, but that which is unseen, is fair and precious. Foundations are out of sight, and so long as they are firm it is not expected that they should be valuable; but in Jehovah’s work everything is of a piece, nothing slurred, nothing mean. The deep foundations of the work of grace are as sapphires for preciousness, no human mind is able to measure their glory. We build upon the covenant of grace, which is firmer than adamant, and as enduring as jewels upon which age spends itself in vain. Sapphire foundations are eternal, and the covenant abides throughout the lifetime of the Almighty. Another foundation is the person of the Lord Jesus, which is clear and spotless, everlasting and beautiful as the
sapphire; blending in one the deep blue of earth’s ever rolling ocean and the azure of its all embracing sky. Once might our Lord have been likened to the ruby as he stood covered with his own blood, but now we see him radiant with the soft blue of love, love abounding, deep,
eternal. Our eternal hopes are built upon the justice and the faithfulness of God, which are clear and cloudless as the sapphire. We are not saved by a compromise, by mercy defeating justice, or law suspending its operations; no, we defy the eagle’s eye to detect a flaw in the groundwork of our confidence-our foundation is of sapphire, and will endure the fire. The Lord himself has laid the foundation of his people’s hopes. …Foundations will all be tried ere long: woe unto him whose lofty tower shall come down with a crash, because based on a quicksand. He who is built on sapphires may await storm or fire with equanimity, for he shall abide the test.
