..Another Epic Night of Hmwk!

This blog will be short.

I was just stressing out about my homework and the lack of sleep I will be getting over the next few days. Then, I paused and realized that I don’t need to stress. I can just relax and enjoy the homework. Simple, slightly weird and straightforward, yet surprisingly refreshing.

Instead of stressing, I took a break and jumped in the Jacuzzi with my little bro and had an amazing Italian cigar, courtesy of Carissa from eMi UK. By the time the cigar was done, an hour and a half of good conversation with my bro had gone by and I was definitely relaxed. I went on and brewed some amazing Moroccan mint tea (from my time in Morroco – 4 hours in the airport) and am now attacking my homework in typical Tim fashion..

Oh and I am also listening to the epic Dark knight soundtrack after procrastinating on fb and seeing Ricky’s status. It really does make me feel like my homework is part of an epic story and that if I don’t finish it the world will end! All around a good time of staying up late and whipping out some good ol’ architecture homework.

Moral of the story – Don’t stress - enjoy every moment!

..Turning and Returning

It is funny how God leads you to read a certain book, listen to a certain message, or even watch a certain YouTube video. The latter just happened to me this morning as I was procrastinating from doing my homework.

I feel like many times I don't fully 'repent' from my sin and just make a 'New Year's resolution' to stop doing what I've been doing. I've realized just how incapable I am in stopping myself from sinning when temptations come. I need God's help. Not only that, but this video reminded me that I can limit the temptations that come. I can control what enters my mind through what I allow myself to watch, listen to, read, or just be around.

Watch this video. I hope that it might help someone out there as much as it's helped me today.



"Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.." - Acts 3:19

Turn from sin and return to God. It is that simple. It is so worth it!

Cheers.
