poor

today i learned what it means to be a poor college student.

it's one of life's most humbling experiences to be poor.

to have a negative balance in your checking account, to not have enough money to buy $3 caramel macchiatos, to know that you're going to have to work your butt off just to pay a $70 cell phone bill.

here i sit in a multitude of things... pictures, shelves, books, instruments, CD's, markers, notebooks, sheets, towels, peanut butter&honey&crackers...

do i see that the multitude of things can be too much? can be distracting?

Love, wash over a multitude of things.

let me be poor in spirit so that i can be rich in Your Love.

let me be poor in pennies so that i can find wealth in Your Wisdom.
