studying is over-rated

so here i am sitting here for about an hour after getting back from church (i went to Covenant Presbyterian tonight and it was amazing!) but i have been sitting here and for half an hour i was talking to my friend about our experience with Covenant and how blessed we are to have a church were the people genuinely care about God and you can feel that in the presence and the community, the lessons speak to us every time that we go and that we are, for the first time in a long time, sad when we are not able to attend church there. we miss it and that is something that do not particularly remember feeling in a long time, expecially in the past 6 months or so. at least not having this desire and this sadness when i cannot go or being completely fulfilled because i do go to church. i have enjoyed it before but something was always missing.

however the lesson tonight was on Romans 11:1-10 and how that God is not going to abandon his people, meaning to me that people that are chosen by God to be in a Covenant relationship with him are never going to loose their salvation--God will not abondon them. it was a great lesson and very peaceful and wonderful.


other than that, again i have to work at the library in the morning, but that should be good productive time on my senior thesis and relaxing since the lady that i don't get a long with is not there in the mornings. it will be more relaxed and hopefully a good time will be had by all. just all day today i have not felt like doing anything. i go to class because the classes are interesting but i do not feel like doing any research or writitng and i don't seem to have the spark that is needed for good writing. i am not "juiced up" like i was a few days ago. yes, part of that is probably from the fact that my coffee intake has been lower than normal these past weeks. i just feel that lately studying is over-rated.
