78because of the tender mercy of our God,
whereby the sunrise shall visit us from on high
79to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the way of peace."
It has been an extremely long time since I have written anything.
Life has changed a lot, so I will do what I can to recap.
I am now a nursing student, at Kaplan University,
And am beginning my second term (out of five) in a matter of weeks.
I am now back in the saddle with youth group.
I still work on the weekends at Cold Stone,
And I now work during the week at Kaplan, in the financial aid department.
I am still single and content with that,
Though I do still struggle with it every so often.
God has been shaking my life up tremendously!
I don't even know how to explain the depths of his faithfulness.
I am realizing more and more how Jesus died for us.
A grueling death, deserved by no man, especially a perfect one...
He died for You & I, to give us freedom,
That we choose to freely return to when the opportunity arises.
Lately, I have been struggling with pride.
This is an ongoing issue for the last couple months.
I am have a bad case of the 20 somethings.
I sometimes feel like I already know,
Or that I have gone through it,
Or trying to one up people.
It's annoying for everyone involved.
God is teaching me humility though.
I am genuinely trying to be better about it.
Sometimes it just feels like what you have to say,
Is unimportant, or that you are not successful without a cool story.
When I think about how God has provided forgiveness,
Every time I have asked for it,
It makes me so thankful that I am so blessed to have the option.
Jesus did something that is so unfathomable,
That I can't comprehend the fact that I am that loved.
Man, oh man.... Life is good.
Oh praise the one who paid my debt,
And raised this life up from the dead.
Jesus, You're the One,
You take my life....
I love you guys.
If you need anything,
Just ask, or pray for it.
Watch God shake you up.
