Hello!

As some of you may know, this is not my first blog. I started a blog last school year, but by the time summer time rolled around my schedule actually got busier and unless I got up at 5:45 to blog or stayed up late to write, it was not going to get done. Well, since I value my sleep...a lot, blogging went out the window unfortunately. So, I started to pick it up again and hopefully make it a long-term deal. I like writing, I like reading others posts as well; it's relaxing and I need that, so therefore I will do it :)
A couple things...on Mondays I will have something called "Maxim Mondays". In the dictionary, 'maxim' means an expression of a general truth or principle. I am currently a college student and my day consists of TONS of reading. However, I look forward each day to doing my devotions and reading an inspirational, good and strong Christian book as well. On Mondays, I will share what I have been reading and what has stuck out to me.
One thing that I struggle with is always being thankful; I am trying really hard to learn that everything happens for a reason and to just be happy about it. And not just be happy, but also thank God for everything He has done. So, Thursdays will be known as "Thankful Thursdays". I will share something that I am thankful for and feel free to share as well!
Also, this school year, I have seen myself really grow spiritually. I find new things about God and His Word that I never have in my 13 years of being a Christian. "Scripture Sunday" I will reflect on what God has been teaching me and hopefully be an encouragement to you too.
Thanks for following, and hopefully you will be able to read something new here every couple days. If not, feel free to remind me that I am slacking!
