I?ve been having quite a few conversations over the last couple days (thanks Rachel, MM, Chris, Jay…) seeking out the Lord and counsel from those He?s placed around me, whom I trust greatly. When I found out Tuesday that it was still an option to go I had the chance to do this, to really…
Read MoreWell, Now I might be going? STINT
It?s been quite a while since I?ve written and it hasn?t been due to lack of anything happening. More the lack of any sort of resolution. For those of you who?ve been paying some attention to what has been going on in my life a major point right now has been STINT (Short Term INTernational,…
Read MoreWhy is this so Hard?
I don?t get it, I?m having a hard time comprehending why I have such a hard time being here (parents house). When I talk to others about it I feel as though I?m asking for sympathy for something that I need to work through. There are parallels to now and when I realized I was…
Read MoreWhy I Stay at Home (Stout)
I always seem to dread coming to my parents house, which is probably one of the reasons I do it so infrequently. The main reason I came home this weekend was to be able to see my little brother. Kyle could be going into the military academy and that would mean a very short-lived summer…
Read MoreSTINT Application
For those of you who don’t know. I’m about 99.9% sure I’ll be living in France come 7 months from now. That’s right, in seven months time I should be settled in and getting into the groove with the ministry back in Toulouse, or possible somewhere else around the world. All I care about is…
Read MoreAnother Update!
So I’ve been slacking major on the updating of this journal but it will get better, because I’m starting to realize how much I’m suppressing my processing of whats going on in my life. This blog helps me do that. Random stuff; I won a free whole pie at baker square today in my SRVM…
Read Moremy crown melts
My crown melts as I return from my work. The speckled snow embracing my hair giving thanks for those who will fail to notice my toils. Oh how you would have done so much more and while my heart rejoices it?s torn for not doing enough, knowing I could have done more. For you I…
Read MoreMoments in Eternity…
I wish I could have written more this past week but my hectic schedule didn’t allow for much of anything aside from ministry, class, and work as an RA. We, as campus crusade, had outreaches on Monday through Thursday and they went so well. Monday we had a spiritual interest panel with 5 professors from…
Read More31 Jours! et plus!!
Ok so by now it’s more like thirty-one and a half days, and I’m still stinkin excited about it. I know I haven’t written much about Jordan but she truly is an amazing women of God. While the first three weeks or so were spent several hours apart now that were here and able to…
Read MoreIt’s finally Done!
As much fun as RA training was, I’m so glad it is finally over. The first three days were a lot of fun because they were smaller settings. There are only 17 new RA?s for this semester and so it was fairly personal. I really enjoyed being able to joke around and make the time…
