crazy day

just one of those days. overwhelmed by the week schoolwork, workwork, oh and writing two sermons, my speech yesterday in preaching class apparently wasn't great and it wasn't the kind of "constructive" criticism i needed at the time. it's not helpful to think you'll never be even a mediocre preacher when you're thinking about how in the world you're going to write two sermons in less than a week. since i was stressed about everything else, i let it get to me too much. however, with the prayers of friends and family, i started feeling better last night when i was able to sit down and knock out some of the other miscellaneous school work that needed to be cleared from the plate.

alright, time to finish clearing the plate and put aside what can wait til sunday evening. i've got some ideas for the sermons, but it's time to really flesh them out.
