Well, today was such a fun day! Our pledge class went out and serenaded many of the sororities and girl's cooperative houses. It was very tiring, but it was great! We pretty much melted their hearts! 

But, on another topic, I have been reading a lot in Job, and I was thinking about perseverance. At this point in the year, we just have to keep persevering to the finish. We don't have very much left, so we just need to continue to persevere. 

Then Job replied: "How long will you torment me and crush me with words? Ten times now you have reproached me; shamelessly you attack me. If it is true that I have gone astray, my error remains my concern alone. If indeed you would exalt yourselves above me and use my humiliation against me, then know that God has wronged me and drawn his net around me. Though I cry, 'I have been wronged!' I get no response; though I call for help, there is no justice. He has blocked my way so I cannot pass; he has shrouded my paths in darkness. He has stripped me of my honor and removed the crown from my head. He tears me down on every side till I am gone; he uproots my hope like a tree. His anger burns against me; he counts me among his enemies. His troops advance in force; they build a siege ramp against me and encamp around my tent. He has alienated my brothers from me;my acquaintances are completely estranged from me. My kinsmen have gone away; my friends have forgotten me. My guests and my maidservants count me a stranger; they look upon me as an alien. I summon my servant, but he does not answer, though I beg him with my own mouth. My breath is offensive to my wife; I am loathsome to my own brothers. Even the little boys scorn me; when I appear, they ridicule me. All my intimate friends detest me; those I love have turned against me. I am nothing but skin and bones; I have escaped with only the skin of my teeth. Have pity on me, my friends, have pity, for the hand of God has struck me." Job 19:1-21 

Job was in the worst circumstance anyone could ever give him. Yet, he didn't give up. He wanted to with all his heart, but he loved the Lord even more. Yearn for God, and desire Him in all you do! And He will bless you.
