After a tiresome week of monotonous work up in Grande Prairie, I was able to sit back and relax and allow my body and mind to recuperate. This job is definitely not a pushover of a job, but demands that you give your all and it tests your mental limits fairly regularly. I've already had 2 mental blocks and my production suffered both of those days, although the last time was 1/2 a box better than the last mental block! I need to focus on my motivation and work with that in mind. As a Christian, I'm not here to just make money for school. I'm here to be a witness of His great and Holy Name and be a faithful ambassador, content with whatever He has given me. Right now, that is waking up at 5:30am, working a 10 hr. work day, having supper, conversing with my co-workers, and going to bed to do it all over again! I feel that I'm here to be more than a worker. I've already encountered some people that are Christians and have some interesting views on theology. I am leaning on God for wisdom in those scenarios and am hoping that I'll learn a lot more about apologetics, or I guess it's technically polemics, this summer through these opportunities! There's also some who hold to other religious views and I look forward to conversing more with them. It should be interesting. God is already stretching me in many different ways and I look forward to how God will have changed and grown me by the end of summer!
