Do I have to?

Back from the Feast and into the fire.  I have to say this Feast was a bit different from what I’ve experienced in the past, and I’m not entirely sure why (though I can think of a few reasons).  However, that’s not to say it wasn’t enjoyable.  I can’t really think of any messages at the Feast that were bad, and I can think of several that were quite excellent.  Also, it was, of course, WONDERFUL to spend that much time with my Sweetie.  At any rate, hopefully I’ll post more about the Feast soon.  For now, I’m busy trying to get back into the groove at school.  I’ve had a major case of “I don’t want to” since I came back and it’s hard to make myself sit down and actually focus on my work.  Nevertheless, I’ve once again seen God’s hand in helping me through this part of life.  Both of my classes this morning spent time reviewing material that was covered while I was gone, and the homework that I have to do is progressing (moderately) well.  I’ve had to remind myself several times though that God doesn’t send us out to keep His Feast only to cut our feet out from under us when we get back.  Thankfully, He’s always provided a way through (though not always without a few bumps and bruises).  I hope that those who have been bumped and bruised a great deal coming back from this Feast are able to get through everything.

Looks like it’s time to go teach my calculus students.  Hopefully they won’t be too angry about me having been gone for over a week.
