So i'm at college, and life has been pretty busy. hence the lack of blog posts. heh.
my thoughts haven't been the most profound either. so much for the great Rissa-wisdom. anywayz.
at my dorm we have these cards we use in order to, you know, get in. yeah. so whenever i leave my dorm i usually have a momentary panic attack where i search for my wallet. kinda a bad time to check, because i would already be locked out. but you know how life is. okayyy.. getting off topic. :P how typical of me.
so the point of this story is that one day in the midst of my worries that i would be locked out........ and the RAs would be especially irritated unlocking the door for me cause they have probably had to do it several times already this week for all the freshmen (hehe) it suddenly hit me how grateful i am that we don't need silly keys or cards, or papers with stamps or money, or friends in high places, or good looks, or extremely smart answers, or political smiles, or cool boyfriends and cars and houses and boats, or anything but faith and Jesus to make it into heaven.
how awesome is that?
i'm pretty grateful to know i won't have some panic attack in front of heaven's gates, wondering if i brought everything, or did everything correctly.
i'll know.
i'll know He wants me there.
i'll know He paid the price.
i'll know He has prepared a feast.
i'll know He is gonna tell me He is proud of His "good and faithful servant"
i'll know He is gonna give me a crown. :)
i'll know that eternity is gonna be awesome.
and i'll be awful excited.
see ya there!
