A Wrinkle In Time

I Took A Beating
I have decided I’m going to write to you all a happy post because I know you’re all sick of my moaning and groaning. I have just finished the most depressing and trying school year ever! That was the worst, but I’m not going to dwell on it. I’m moving on. After having completed four years of college it seems like I haven’t accomplished much. People keep asking me how many years I have left and I feel embarrassed to tell them that I still have a year and a half of classes left and a semester of internship to finish. I had taken one year of Bible classes at Prov. and then I took the general courses at the community college here and graduated with an associate of arts degree and then I transferred to the university to pursue my degree in Social Work. I just thought that I would explain that to you all in case you are confused as to why it’s taking me so long to finish.

Forever Grateful
The people that God has placed in my life have been such a blessing to me. I’m truly grateful for my family and friends who have carried me through. My relationships with these people remind me of God’s goodness. Realizing God’s goodness through bad times is a hard lesson to learn and for the longest time I thought that questioning God was wrong to do, but I think that in order to maintain an honest and open relationship with him, maybe questioning him is a necessary part of the process.

Now More Than Ever
I am extremely joyful and happy to announce that on Monday I start my new job working at a nursing home again and on Friday I move into my very own place. I’ve never had my own place before. I’ve always lived at home or in a dorm so it will be a new experience for me. I’m so excited! I’ve spent many nights on my grandparent’s couch this year and I’ve been staying with them since I moved out of the dorm and until I can move into my apartment. I think that they really appreciate having me there and I enjoy their company. I have discovered that grandparents make the best roommates! In a week my grandparent’s and I will be neighbors because my apartment is just down the hall from theirs.

Tip Of The Day:
Don’t give up on God!
