Perfectly Ok

So I was thinking just now about the phrase being perfectly ok. Can you (2 minute power outage there...) even be perfectly ok? Cuz if you're just ok it's obviously not perfect and if you're perfect than you can't really be ok. It's kinda opposite...But anywho.
So Subway is just dandy. Although I'm not too keen on staying up till 3:30 am doing dishes....That is just NOT fun at all. But at least it's mindless....Other than that, it's ok I guess. It's money, which brings me closer to being able to go to school. And yet it's not bad, cuz when I think of some people, they started out waiting on tables and sooner or later ended up doing hard core missionary work all over the world. (aka Philip in the book of Acts) He started out in chapter 6 by waiting on tables with the Greek and Hebrew widows. Then by the end of chapter 8 I believe he was being carried around by the Holy Spirit. So that has been reassuring to me over the last while. I find that I'm often wanting the big things in life RIGHT NOW, rather than just using the time God has given be and just knowing that He can use me no matter where I am or what the circumstances are. True contentment in your circumstances is actually pretty hard to find at times, even though we all like to think we have it so good in Canada and what not. True contentment comes from knowing Jesus and knowing that He loves you no matter where you are in life. So in the words of Paul, "Rejoice in the LORD always; I will say it again REJOICE!"

Every once in a while...

I happen to post on here...So some news about my life in general I think is in order here. Well the job at Kilman's ended for me. A little disappointing at first but all in all I'm hoping it'll work out for the best. And it means that I'll be saving some money on gas. But the experience was good, so I'll leave it at that...On the upside I now get to work at Subway. wOOt wOOt. It's pretty fun so far. Gotta love the good ol Subway smell. And believe you me there is a smell. Haha. So that much is going good. Oh and in between that grad happened. Amac came out to escort me which was really good. (Thanks a ton.) And we had a pretty good chat in the car on the way out to Kilmans' for the after party. And we got lost on the way out there. Sorry not lost, but we went waaay to far ahead and so it took about an hour for us to get there rather than the 1/2 hour it usually takes. But ya twas fun. oh and Grant came out quite unexpectedly. That bum. Sad part was that I hardly got to hang out with that kid duting the whole week him and Laura were out. (Laura was Kurt's escort which was why they came out in the first place...) But ya. Overall grad was fun although during the ceremony it felt like the paparazzi were after us what with all the cameras and people and such. But happens every year so oh well. Hmm. what else is there. Me and God had a pretty sweet chat last night. I've been struggling through some stuff and well let's just say that as always God won and so right now I'm ok with it and it's all good. 'Good' just happens to be the word of the day and is a uh good word to describe life right now. Not bad not great but good. God is good though it doesn't always seem like it. Nonetheless. He remains the same even when everything else seems so fickle. And so that is my random or not so random thought of the day, so have a gooder and watch out for penguins!

luv n hugz
