I’m so excited to see God just pouring out his blessing to me. I had one donor increase her support and I got another person to come on board and join my team. I’m just so blessed! And today, I got a whole bunch of names so I’ll be dialing like crazy this weekend.

All my roommates are going to New York to see Conan O’ Brian tomorrow so I’m left all alone at home…you know what that means?!

PARTY!!!

But seriously…

I’ve really just been really stressed with everything that’s going on in my life now. Support raising has become this huge monster that I keep fighting everyday. I’m really praying that God will finish my support raising soon. I really want to be back to campus. As I was praying today, God put this song in my head:

Can’t believe that I did it again
Wake me up from this nightmare
‘Cause this monster are wasting me away taking my days

Everyday I live a bit less
One night leads to another
Even if I went back they would recognize me
Or criticize me?

Who are you that lies when you stare at my face
Telling me that I’m just a trace of the person I once was
Cause I just can’t tell if you’re telling the truth or a lie
On you I just can’t rely.
After all you’re just a piece of glass…

Still I control this nightmare
When I call it answers
But I can’t tell it when to come
Or when to stay

Who are you that lies when you stare at my face
Telling me that I’m just a trace of the person I once was
Cause I just can’t tell if you’re telling the truth or a lie
On you I just can’t rely
After all you’re just a piece of glass…

Don’t talk, listen
Hold me tighter
Stay with me just for a while
Until the sun shines stay with me
Just give me one more day

Who are you that lies when you stare at my face
Telling me that I’m just a trace of the person I once was
Cause we’re not the same, you’re just a picture of me
You’re gone as soon as I leave
You’ve lived my life for me
And you’re no more than a piece of glass.

You’re no more than just a piece of glass…

This is such a powerful song for many reasons. But as I began just thinking through the many students that are a part of what of MCF, this is the song that came out. I began to wonder, “How many students are wrestling with being accepted? How many of them are depressed because of the picture they see in the glass?”

You’re just a picture of me…you’re gone as soon as I leave. After all you’re…just a piece of glass…
