How do we do this Blogging thing again?

Whew! September and October have come and gone.

Where to? Well, I really couldn’t tell you … the past two months have really been a blur for me.

One of my professors at school told us at the beginning of the semester to blink and we’d be home for Christmas. Like everyone else, I laughed and thought he was crazy. I didn’t even give it a second thought, Christmas was months away | Summer sunshine and flip-flops awaited me at the end of my school day. No, I certainly wouldn’t be blinking away nearly a whole semester | finding myself bundling up and counting down to Christmas.

But here I am, winding down from my pre-Thanksgiving fun and realizing there are only 23 days before I happily — and very unceremoniously — chuck my belongings into the back of my car and hit the road for Home. 

School has really been a blast though! I’ll be the first to admit it was better this year than last year. One difference being, I finally just gave things over to the Lord and let him mold and shape me till the mud and droplets of water flung from this piece of clay. God has taught me so much in such a little time! I can’t really believe it, even when I’ve sat down long enough to think about it. But I’m thankful.

My day consisted of a 2.5 hour long Praise chapel that was totally awesome | some amazing Pumpkin Cheesecake | a round or two of Ping-pong & Checkers — one of which I happened to win | and a lesson in Chess — pretty much almost lost, but I’m catching on ya’ll. 😉

The Little Steps

  So often God brings little steps into our lives that lead to even greater opportunities than we could have ever expected. This past Spring, God brought me to the Pregnancy Center as a volunteer. I have semi-acclimated myself to how things are run around here and absolutely love it! 🙂

   For the past month or so, I’ve been talking to the N.C Pregnancy Center director about possibly transferring to their Shelby center when I return to school this fall. I met with him on Friday afternoon and was given the job. I was thrilled to death, to say the least.

   God went over and above in answering my prayers! I’m so thankful.

   I also had an interview at Chick-fil-A where one of my friend’s works and I got that job as well. It sounds like a lot of craziness between schooling and working, but the Lord has brought me to it and He’ll bring me through it as well. I’m so excited to see what the Lord has in store for me. 🙂
