fall 2007: a semester of grace

it will be the semester that i will have very....not-so-fond memories of in terms of the hardships that i had, but it is where i recognize the infinite grace of God.

this semester has been the hardest in terms of....everything, not just academically. mostly academically, but with other things, it just heightened the stress of this semester. i had to go to the elementary school and fulfill my hours. i had to go to denton for school from 8-3. i work 10 hrs a week, and there's ministry as well

not really complaining. i put this upon myself, but i have found through all of this that this is too busy. i have been neglecting my God. this life is too busy for me, and for once in my life, i feel as if i can't do it. i've always been able to do what's been put in front of me, but this semester in particular it has been hard to get things done and done in the way that is satisfactory to me.

the fact that i have gotten through this entire semester alive and for me to expect all As this semester has floored me.

however what has made it hardest is not knowing what next semester and post graduation held. most of the girls in my class plan to get a job with the public school system, but as i have gone through this entire semester, my heart still lied with being overseas and still does. however, i don't see any opportunities so far. granted i know i have to research, but this semester has been way too much for me to be able to do any of that.

but God's peace reigns over me, and i am thankful for that.
