"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt

War Damn Life

I have about a thirty minute break before reality sits back in so it's time to catch up the blog postings. Auburn is absolutely in it's prime season. Midterms are finally done, praise the Lord!! These past few weeks have been wonderfully jam packed with so much fun!
We had our first Gospel Choir Performance a few weeks ago and it was so much fun! We sang my favorite song that we have been practicing, "Souled Out" by Hezekiah Walker, check it out. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l937QuCzD38) Also in recent news, God has answered my prayers and searchings for a job! In two weeks or so I'll be working at Taylor's Coffee Shoppe downtown off of college street.
This is such a relief because it is just setting me one step closer to Peru! Not only will I be in Peru for the summer but now I am leading a group of Auburn students to Peru for this spring break! We will be going with Frontline Peru into the jungle to a small and VERY rural town called Pulcallpa. This upcoming thursday is the day we have set for the deadline for commitment for the trip, I can't wait to see who all the Lord calls to join us on this trip!
