psalm 97:10 and other such calming verses

"those who love [God], he keeps safe, snatches them from the grip of the wicked." - psalm 97:10
"how blessed the man you train, God,
the woman you instruct in your word,
providing a circle of quiet with the clamor of evil . . .
God will never walk away from his people
never desert his precious people.
Rest assured that justice is on its way
and every good heart put right. . . .
When i was upset and beside myself,
you calmed me down and cheered me up. . . .
God became my hideout,
God was my high mountain retreat" - Psalm 94: 12-15,19,22

classes begin

today i started my classes of the new semester. mondays i have one 3 1/2 hour class. i don't think i have ever had a class that long. we do have a break halfway through but still it sure is a long stretch. today we learned about mental illness. i don't think i could be a nurse in a mental health facility. tomorrow i have a biology class for 3 1/2 hours. i'm not sure what exactly we'll be covering yet. wednesday i have the same bio class but this time for 2 1/2 hours. then later i have canadian ethics. thursday and friday morning i will be having clinical again. i'm not sure which specialty i will be placed in. we find out thursday. friday after clinical i have a computer course. it will be online so i'm looking forward to not having to go to an actual classroom.
now it's off to do my readings!
