Where has the time gone?? 6 weeks ago the fall semester began, and in less than 2 weeks I will have already completed 2 classes for the semester. Time has flown by! I've been blessed this semester to have a lot of support and help around me.

"Live in harmony with each other. Don’t be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don’t think you know it all!" Romans 12:16

Things have been going great with the girls small group I've been leading. In the past week or so, God has really revealed to me that He has placed this desire in my heart for girls, and young women. A pretty humbling revelation...

"Give me the wisdom and knowledge to lead them properly, for who could possibly govern this great people of yours?” God said to Solomon, “Because your greatest desire is to help your people, and you did not ask for wealth, riches, fame, or even the death of your enemies or a long life, but rather you asked for wisdom and knowledge to properly govern my people—I will certainly give you the wisdom and knowledge you requested." 2 Chronicles 1:10-12

Within the next couple of weeks we should know whether or not my family will be moving. If they do, I'm prepared for a lot more change! The biggest lesson I've learned this year is that God's plans are far better than my plans. Instead of worry, I am so much more excited to see where He takes me, my family & friends these coming days.

"So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you have to endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world." 1 Peter 1:6-7
