As our highly anticipated friends and visitors from Toronto stepped foot
into Newman House, the room was suddenly filled with the familiar aroma of GT.
What does GT smell like? You’ll have to find out yourselves at GT 2014 in early
September!
There was no better way to show how much we are blinded by God’s
blessings every day than for the entire GT Committee to drive three hours to
Kingston to share a night of laughs, sharing, and reflection with us.
Our activity tonight required some careful treading as we experienced
searching for others behind a blindfold. This very disability alone reminds us
how much we take our gift of sight, and all the small things we have for
granted. We receive so many blessings every day of our lives, and we often get
blinded by them and forget about the source of all our blessings. Students and
those in the work force are often overwhelmed with school or an extremely
quick-paced schedule that they forget to leave some time for God and prayer. It’s
important to reflect not only on our suffering and personal struggles, but also
on all the blessings of happiness, friends, and family that God has granted us
with.
