So I have been pretty down lately. Not sure why but lots of little things about college have been getting to me. Especially things about living in the community of Carillon House. Not that there aren’t great things about it and not that the girls I live with aren’t amazing, but there are really hard things about it too. Things like not getting to decide what you eat for dinner, or what time you eat or not being able to cook for yourself and things like that, that people living in their own house might take for granted (or even complain about). Its the grown-up things that we all wish we got to do.

Anyway enough complaining… what I really want to share is how great the guys in my year group are. There are a couple in particular (hopefully you know who you are!) who I know go out of their way to care for me. Amidst the hardship of college its so special to spend time with these men, my brothers. To share with them, study with them, pray with and for them.

So I say thank you to my dear brothers in Christ.

‘I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.’1:3-6
