After two days of freedom from OSP [Orlando Summer Project] rules and regulations, I’ve realized something:
I have yet to do anything that’s OSP inappropriate!
My suitcase holds several tank tops, but I haven’t worn anything that violates the high standards of my summer dress code. My mother offered me a glass of wine, but I wasn’t in the mood. To be honest, I feel like a bit of a slacker for sleeping in the past two mornings (though Lord knows the rest has done me some good!). This is life, post-OSP.
In all seriousness, I’m excited to see how this summer has changed me. After 10 weeks in a “Christian bubble,” I know my sensitivity has been heightened. I’ve been shocked to see some of the clothes people wear, and it’s weird to spot people with cigarettes.
Likewise, I anticipate changes in my behavior. I can already think of a few shirts that will be sent to Goodwill. I’m considering (maybe) purchasing a new Christian CD.
But the ways God has worked in me this summer haven’t all been so minor. He’s moving me past bitterness – a much needed change, as many will tell you. He opened my eyes to new possibilities for my future, and He introduced me to some amazing people.
I can’t numerate His works for you off-hand, but you better believe I’ll be processing through some of that over the next several weeks. I miss my fellow interns, but at the same time – it’s good to be back. Bring on real life!
A Christian CD? No way… 10 Christian points for that one, and if it was made before 1998, then you get 50 points. We should keep a running tally of all the points you’re getting lately. :o) I MISS YOU!
P.S. It seems that I am special enough to be on your friends list twice. Man, are you going to miss me a ton, life is gonna stink with me gone. Hahaha, love ya Lala!
