Ok, so it's the weekend and guess what I'm doing...school! This happens every weekend. While all my friends are hanging out or going to the movies I sit around trying to keep up with the endless treadmill of homework. I know that this qualifies in the "hard things" category, but still it can get just a bit discouraging. Yet though this, as He does with most things, God has been teaching me stuff.
1. He has appointed this job, for me to do, at this time. Algebra doesn't seem like a noteworthy task, yet when seen from God's eyes is a completely different landscape. He told me to do it. It takes a personal aspect when you see it this way.
2. I need to do it with all my heart. I have been blessed by being homeschooled and having the freedom to get an education. The Bible says in Colossians 3:23-24 "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving." Whether I am finishing my homework or cleaning the bathrooms, I should be doing for God. That should completely change my aspect on things.
Now I am off to do homework. =P

Good points, Danni. I'll have to remember that when I'm doing something I don't want to do...
Homework on weekends is no fun. I hope you get a break some time.
