2 Cor. 12:9-10
"And He said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, and my strength is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong."

2 Cor. 4:2
" But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us."

2 Cor. 1:9
"...that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God..."

Trying to be self-sufficient only lasts so long before God makes known how futile all of my efforts to do things on my own are. I'm so thankful that I have a God to depend on and trust in, because without Him, I am nothing...

Silence...

After completing over two hours of ear training for music theory tonight, I can honestly say...my brain is fried. And on top of that, my entire suite left for the weekend, so my room is so quiet I think I might go insane! Actually, it has been a pretty good weekend. Last night was a girls 'sleepover' in my friend Johanna's room, and today, since I was free from distraction, I was able to get a lot of work accomplished. However, I am done being responsible for the night...time to go create some trouble. (Where's my voice changer?) :-) My apologies to those of you who were hoping for a profound and touching post; this is neither.
