Its weird to think that I am done a semester of classes already and starting in to some new ones already. Where has the time gone by?
I had classes last week, i feel though I haven't switched gears into be a student again. I have class tomorrow morning at 8:30...bah....i signed up for that class in july when I was getting up at 5:30 each morning thinking that 830 class would be no problem, forgetting that I usually don't go to bed at a decent time during the school year...oh well :P
i wish i was done school. Seriously tho, i have been in school for five years already. I am wanting to be done, and right now, it is really hard to have the drive to do school when my heart is in so many different places. I am also a credit away from getting my degree in applied biblical studies from clbi, which i could of finished it off last year...maybe I should finish it off this year??? I am also at the stage of being able to apply as a social work qualifying student, but who knows, i might not go back to school next year, pray for me... i think the adventurous side of me I have been trying to keep latent is starting to create a restlessness in me.
But..I am learning how to manage my time. I have more classes than last year, working more hours than last year, I have more responsiblities this year, and I am trying to maintain good friendships with everybody. I think I work better understress and the classes that I have taken so far I have ejoyed....And I know the general direction that God is calling me to do, and to do it, I need to the schooling to help equip me to do it soooo...(back at square one..)
I was thinking about 1 peter 5:5 today. ...all of you clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God opposes the proud and gives grace to the humble...I was thinking about the fine line of false humility and true humility (which is, to my understaning, and from what I have been told, is: not relying on your own strength but Gods) And I was thinking about the importance of walking with eachother in true humility, being able to ask for help, allowing others to see your baggage. God definitly uses us help others... to be a friend... to listen.. be able to see the value of a person beyond their actions...when we are humble.
I think i am thinking about this because I am going to be starting to volunteer somewhere, somewhere I am going to have to be tested and totally transparent. So, again, if you are reading this, pray for me, pray that God will work in my heart to become humble, pray for wisdom for me, pray for patience, pray that God will send me His strength.
well,its late and I have to get up in a few hours and I have been listening to the same song on repeat for a while now.
I hope all of you are doing well, I am praying for you too!
