Moving On

I take a deep breath and remember what it felt like to be gasping for air. I lace up my boots and look back to when I could see bare feet walking across jagged rocks. I slip on my coat and think back to when I was cold and helpless. I look into the mirror and see a face, older then I remember, worn by many travels, heartbreaks, laughs, and meaningful conversations. I focus in on the eyes and can't help but remember a time when I saw unselfish love, viewed pain, witnessed strength, and felt hope. I reach for the door, on the other side lies another journey, more experiences and soon to me memories like these.

Parking Garage Prayer

Each time someone one walks across this bridge alone, reveal to them that You have not forgotten. Each time someone walks this campus and feels homesick, show them that You love. Each time someone looks at the lake, show them that Your beauty is endless. Each time a student tries to find a parking spot and there are none, show them that You are patient. Each time a group gathers on this campus, show them what it feels like to have community with You.
