Make it work!

Today has been a good day.

When I say good I don't mean that everything has fallen in line or that my every whimsical wish was granted. Rather, it is a good day just to live. The weather here is beautiful and as I walk around MU I am amazed by the beauty of creation.
I had my religious studies class today and here is something I took away from it:

"(Religion's) Moods and motivations seem uniquely realistic. Moods and motivations induced by religion seem so powerful to believers that they only seem to be the sensible version of what things 'really are'"

Sad huh? My teacher then proceeded to tell us that we get so wrapped in our religion that we are unable to believe anything else is true. The reason for this is simple to me - nothing else is true. Nothing else is true save for the gospel and consistency of Jesus Christ.

I thank God for the blessings he has bestowed on me:
1) An amazing family
2) The best man I could ask for as my boyfriend
3) An incredible roommate
4) A good education
5) The assurance of my salvation

Well, Em just got back so we're going to make a coffee run. ;) That's all for now!
