Too much? Not if it's for His glory

Going into college i knew was going to be different that high school. That was a given. But i didnt think about eveything that im taking on, and how i would be able to keep that up. Im awak at 5am-some nights, past midnight. I dont have any breaks. Im constantly going. Im taking 5 classes [16 hours of school], i work every morning & evey afternoon[night]. Plus i work every saturday morning. Also, haha, i am at church basically all day on sunday, and then ive got my LifeGroup monday nights, and Awana on wednesday nights. Woo! Im running on like 5 hours of sleep a night, and i dont make it up on the weekends. i feel like i should be able to take a nap, but i never do. Im not complaining, Im really not. God has given this life to me, and im just trying to live it up for him. Im just trying to live a life that is pleasing to him. Ill do whatever God calls me to do. And right now, im doing the best i can. I am reading my bible daily, because when i go a day without reading, i feel lost and like i betrayed God. Which, i did. My prayer life, is not where it should be. Ive fallen asleep on God one too many times. My priority right now is God. And focused on what He wants from me, and what would please Him, and bring Him the glory He deserves. To be glorified [for those who dont know what that means..] is to be help to the most highest. God is at the top of my ladder. Im always striving for more from Him. Alhough i struggle with saying aloud how im feeling, thats what i love about God. He can read my thoughts! So when im having a hard time getting out how i feel, i can explain it in full to God. im not perfect, and never will be. But when i see God in heaven, I want to hear Him say to me..God the creator of the universe, say to Me, a sinner, "well done, thy good and faithful servent!"
Well people, this little one has to get to bed. Early rising tomorrow.. Ill write again soon. have a great day. God bless you!

I once saw a thing that said: "Good Grades, Good Social Life, Good Sleep: Pick two and welcome to college"

I really know how that goes Meghin. College is super tough--especially when you have that heart-felt desire to be close to God. I think its really good and says something about you as a woman and as a student to be convicted to follow after God even when you feel stretched as far as you think you can be.
