Where I've been and where I'm headed...

I've been learning a lot about myself and about who God wants me to be.  I am a selfish person.  God is teaching me to focus outward.  I talk a lot.  God is teaching me to listen.  I have plans.  God is teaching me to trust in Him. 

This past year was very difficult for me.  I had a very rough first year of teaching.  I enjoyed it but it wasn't always a happy experience.  God taught me to trust and He led me in a new direction.  I was extremely blessed to never have a feeling of doubt about where He wanted me to go next.  He now has me back in grad school for another science degree.  I am excited to keep learning and discover where He wants to take me in my life.  I still want to teach but He might even change that desire.  I don't see that happening at this point, but that's okay. 

This semester, I am learning about complex systems and their dynamics.  I've got information already that takes me in a whole new direction.  I get to continue to be involved with Aletheia Church and learn about so many more things about God and His Word.  I don't know where God will take me after this, but I know it will be GOOD.

I am endeavoring to memorize the book of James.  This is both exciting and scary for me.  I love the book of James, so that's exciting!  Memorize a whole book of the Bible, even a small one??? Definitely challenging.  I am hoping to be challenged by this, the study of James, and the rest of the ladies who are also going through this study.  I know God will take me to new places in my faith and I can't wait to see what they are.
