Unexpected Life

Wowsers!

I asked God for strength, that I might achieve.
I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey.
I asked for health, that I might do better things.
I was given infirmity, that I might do better things.
I asked for riches, that I might be happy.
I was given poverty, that I might be wise.
I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men.
I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God.
I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life.
I was given life, that I might enjoy all things.
I got nothing I asked for,
but everything I had hoped for.
Almost despite myself,
my unspoken prayers were answered.
I am, among all men,
most richly blessed.

Today was such an extremely loooong and exhausting day! We pretty much finished setting up our project and we are working on our experimental presentation for Monday. This pretty much decides the outcome of our flight whether it be a yes or a no. Things are getting pretty hectic. I'm barely able to walk out of there from all the things that are going on. It's hilarious actually, a couple of months ago, if you asked me if I wanted to do the project, I would have replied no. Everything seemed to have fallen apart, things were getting so intense that I just wanted to pull out so I wouldn't have to deal with this stuff. Now, I'm so glad that I didn't quit because God is doing so much work in me. As the above poem says, "I asked God for strength that I might achieve. I was made weak so that I would humbly obey". Each day that goes by, I find that more and more things are happening to just exhaust me physically and mentally. The strange thing is, each day that passes by, I react a little more peaceful to the problem or burden. Now I understand just how much I actually need God. I love you God. Let me just soak up Your Goodness and Grace.

Here are a few videos I took containing some projects.
