			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>I know you don&#8217;t like it went I try to talk about the deep stuff, but I suppose I have to do this from time to time.</p>
<p>Firstly, since I haven&#8217;t told you directly yet, I am thankful to God for my results in IB. I was thankful from the moment I saw them, because they were a perfect example of a running joke that seems to me going on between us ( by which I mean, God and me). It seems that no matter what I ask for, He always gives me a bit less. I can pray for weeks, but I won&#8217;t get that picture perfect prize that I want. At the same time, even when I don&#8217;t pray that much at all, He gives me what I need.  I suppose what God is trying to teach me here is to trust Him.</p>
<p>This is something that it is hard for me to accept, but I suppose I have too. Heh. I wish I could be a better Christian and tell you that I&#8217;m completely fine with everything that happens&#8230;but I&#8217;m not. Well let me rephrase that.</p>
<p>Long-Term Luke is fine. Long-Term Luke knows that short-term uncertainties aren&#8217;t important. Unfortunately, Short-Term Luke isn&#8217;t as lucky. Short-term uncertainties are big things for  Short-Term Luke. BIG THINGS!</p>
