Prayer requests: Wise and intentional with my time: that I would not marginalize time with God or fellowship or other very important but not urgent things for the sake of grades, but that I would also be diligent in my studies. I have a systematic theology mid-term on Tuesday; it's going to be a killer. Czech internship: raising of funds and prayer support, finish getting all my paperwork, and getting international insurance worked out. That God would continue to use His word, prayer, those around me, and classes to prepare me for my internship coming up, and that he would continue to sanctify and mature all of us serving their this summer and prepare each student we meet to meet with Him.
Mid writing P.S. (guess that makes that an M.W.S.): I also regularly update my Twitter (www.twitter.com/rosenministries), and you can subscribe to it in the same way you do blogs.
I have sent (well, my mom has sent) my support letters out, and it says to check this blog for updates and prayer requests. I put my prayer requests at the top for people who do not have time for all this nitty gritty detail stuff. I completely understand. It's hard to keep up with a lot of blogs that are filled with multiple paragraphs each. So, for those that want the quick updates and prayer requests, you do not need to read further. For those that want more details and all those things, feel free to continue.
Spring break was great. I have an incredible family and amazing friends. It was a blessing to be home again. Long days, late nights, movies, games, running, cooking and putting on a formal dinner; it was great.
This weekend I ran my first 5k with my roommate and a friend of his in Winona Lake, IN, which is pretty much Grace College and Seminary. 3.1 miles in 28:17. I'm pleased, but my right knee isn't. It was fun and relaxing being off campus for a night and a day, meeting new people, and resting for a bit (5k's lead to great naps and enjoyment of guilt free large meals).
