Journey Day 270

I had such a good day yesterday, and it wasn't even because I went anywhere cool, or did anything awesome. I basically just relaxed. I went to school and did the class thing and then as soon as class was over I stopped by kroger to get more fruit and filtered water and then I came home and cleaned my room, my bathroom and my car. Then I spent some time on my knees in prayer. I kneeled on the floor by my bed and just talked with God, it was very freeing. Then I took a nap, and when I woke up I watched some t.v. and ate some humus and these yummy tortilla chips made with olives! Then I took a walk around my apartment complex, and then I got ready for bed! See? It was a completely uneventful, boring day and I loved it. For the first time in a really long time I was able to have a day to myself! It was quiet, and peaceful and just what I needed.I've enjoyed the quiet, but I'm looking forward to bible study tonight when I'll get to see a few of my friends! I've missed them a whole lot! I think that I've felt more of a peace in the past few days then I have in a while. I've stopped striving and I've just been basking in God's love. I'm not going to lie, sometimes it's been hard for me to slow down because I'm so used to always go, go, going! I literally find myself convincing my body that it's ok to rest and it's ok to be still. Mostly I've just been enjoying God's presence. Sometimes I pray and sometimes I just silently enjoy Him, and through that silent enjoyment of His company I can feel my love grow and I can feel our intimacy deepen. And it seems that nothing can make me happier than that! : )
