So here is a line from the Shakespearean play, "A Midsummer Night's Dream" that we are studying in school (and this quotation was on my test today):
"Lord, what fools these mortals be!"
-Puck
(W. Shakespeare)
If you think about it, we are just wandering around this world (no, Meagan, not in someone's an...) trying to figure out what to do. We are fools in love, as it makes us do many stupid things. All around, man itself is foolish. Doing things for praise, to fit in, to be different....Does it really matter in the end?
So I am back. I went to Youth Group and the Co-op for a while....I dunno when I started this post, but it is 9:10 now. And I am still avoiding homework. Ugh.
In this life we are forever being tested. In science class, in gym, in the hallways at school, at home, at church, in the park, at the bus stop, at the mall, everywhere! But it is always God, our concience, testing us.
It doesn't always seem fair. God tests us constantly, but we are told "Do not test the LORD your God" (Deut. 6:16 NIV). Does God just not want us to test him because he can't always follow through?
Here is something that I took from Andrew Hodge's blog. (Yeah, if you read this, I am not some stalker, I accually went to Camp Medley when you were on staff their and I just recently found Adam O's blog, and he has a link to your page....okay, I was really bored!)

Post comments please!
Well, I think that that will be all for tonight. I wish I could avoid Shakespeare for another hour, but I really can't. Talk to y'all later, eh?

hello Hannah..
I do not believe that we have met, but ....it's nice to "cyber meet" you :) You added me on myspace, so I figured I'd say hello, I'm a good friend of Adam O's...

Hey Hannah!
I just found your blog, through Andrew's blog... which is funny cause I guess you found his through mine.
Anywho, I am glad to see that you are still seeking more of the Lord. I just want to encourage you in that, and to tell you to keep pressing in and asking Him for more. I know that is a concept that has been radically changing my life... simply asking Him for more of what He has planned for us.
In other news, judging from your list thing on your blog, we would get along well when it comes to watching movies. I loved every one you have on there.
Anyway, this comment is getting awful long. God bless!

Adam, What can I say? I don't generally like movies, so when a good sappy one comes along, it's mine.
Courtney, Yeah, I've gone to Camp Medley for, like, the past 8 years or something crazy like that, and I think you've been at almost all of them...Don't worry about not remembering me, I usually try not to be that noticable. :) But I always love your skits with Martha!
