recommended reading

so, as you know, since i've left auburn i've become more and more of a fan of auburn football. of course while i was a student, i would get into the fan-crazy atmosphere but i don't think i ever really appreciated auburn football and being an auburn tiger until i left to come back to mem for dental hygiene school. ever since i left, i have truly missed auburn & the legacy it left on my life. i am prouder and prouder as time moves on to be able to say i am an auburn tiger and part of the auburn family.
well my recommended reading, nonetheless, is Gene Chizik's book called "All In". My mom and i were at lifeway the other day to return some books, and she mentioned it. i went to grab the book as quickly as possible dand ever since we bought it, i have spent every free second reading this book. i'm almost finished and cannot put it down.
not only is it a "recap" or sortof summary of auburn football and the auburn family, but it is a rundown of Gene Chizik's faith in God and how it has become intertwined with his role as head coach, father, husband, etc. it is AMAZING. it makes me more appreciative of this great university and head coach and football team. what a testimony for him to stand out like that and claim his faith in hopes to win people to the Lord. SOOOO, if you have any free time this week, go pick up this book, All In.
some more recap of my life lately...
i got back from vacation last wednesday and was able to go home to memphis for a few days and spend time with my family and michael and his cousins. it seems like time goes faster and faster during the time i have at home. it seems so short :( yesterday was my first day back to work in what seemed like forever. i always have to get back into the swing of work even after a weekend. it can definitely be challenging. i found myself praying a lot yesterday just for patience, strength, and joy. the most challenging part for me is getting behind. i don't like feeling rushed with patients or their cleanings and time i have with them. i get overwhelmed! and yesterday it seemed like everything would go wrong.
i don't think i express how much i am thankful for a job, where the Lord has me right now, every single blessing in my life. i think when things get challenging and life is bumpy in different ways, the Lord is reminding me to be thankful in all things and joyful.
