Weed 'em and Weep
There are certain times in your life you see yourself growing into an adult and today was one of those times. I spent all morning doing what my young self did for punishment growing up...pulling weeds. Oh yes. I pulled weeds on my own accord. Why you ask? It was due to the adult fact I have a house I need to take care of and that is mine along with 3 other roommates. Strange thing to think about...

Unpredictability
Why is it we don't get things when we want them but we get it when we're least expecting it? Take sleep for instance...when we want/need sleep, we can never get it but when the most inopportune time comes, that is when rest if upon us.
Another example is relationships. Why, when we are so content where we are and not looking for change, is when that choice person (male or female) comes into our life and changes it forever?
God is funny that way. But I like it. I like that things come when you least expect it. Sure, it may not be the greatest thing to stay awake til 1 a.m. and then go to school at 7 (I blame that on college) but I love that God is spontaneous and likes to suprise us, even in the little ways. I love that He gives me the extra few hours that I can't sleep to hang out with a roommate that can't sleep either. I love that He sticks amazing people in my life when I'm least expecting them and those people are the ones that don't leave my side, mind, or heart. I love having an unpredictable God and never being able to guess what He'll do next!
