So I'm sitting here in the USO at St. Louis eagerly waiting for the third bus to arrive and take me off to my final destination. The bus won't be here for another 3 hours! So much waiting!
I somehow got rid of my temporary battle Buddy and have shoved myself in the far corner away from everyone (Meagan and delaney would be so proud of mu antisocial ness lol)
I'm charging my phone and reading my bible. I came across some awesome passages in the devotions. I wish I knew who wrote these little poems and sayings but I don't. Just know that these aren't mine, though I'd gladly claim them if it were not for copyright infringement! Haha!
"But you will not mind the roughness, nor the steepness of the way,
Nor the cold, untested morning, not the heat of noonday;
And you will not take a turning to te left or the right,
But go straight ahead, not tremble at the coming night,
For the road leads home"
"Heroes are forged on anvils hot with pain,
And splendid courage comes but with the test
Some natures ripen and some natures bloom
Only on blood-wet soil, some souls prove great
Only in moments dark with death and doom...
God finds his best soldiers on the mountains of affliction"
