I heard about Perspectives for the first time last semester. I hadn’t even considered going until the head of Freshley sent out an email about it last week. I signed up to go to the first night free, but I didn’t think I would be returning because it costs $275 for the semester. I ended up getting the money by God’s amazing grace, so I went back last night. I got the books for the class, but in my excitement, I forgot my books when I left the Connection Café, which is where we meet.
So this morning, my plan was to go to class, then hurry back to get my books. I woke up at 6:30, turned off my alarm, went back to sleep, and woke up five minutes later because my blood sugar was low. After I got something to eat, someone knocked on my door. Some random guy had left the headlights on in his car overnight, and his battery was dead, so he was looking for money for a cab. I have no idea how he got into the dorm (we have a hand scanner), but I gave him some money. I assume I did the right thing because God had to have planned it; I wouldn’t have been awake that early if it hadn’t been planned.
I got to the School of Music for class, and after my 8am, I was headed to my 9:05. It turns out that my 9:05 is only a Monday/Wednesday class. How did I find out? The hallway in front of the band room (my 9:05 classroom) was packed with JanFest parents, including some from my high school. Now I’m meeting my high school friends for lunch after they get out of rehearsal.
Anyway, since I didn’t have class, I went to the Connection Café to find my books. Thankfully, they were still there. And in going to the café, I made a couple new friends and found out about Prince Avenue Baptist Church’s college ministry.
And it’s all because of two simple things that happened last week… Haha. Our God is amazing!
