October/November

Well, it's time for an update on this blog yet again, and I'm in the mood to write. At present I'm in Fall Session 2 of classes, taking Making Christ Known and Between the Testaments. Although Between the Testaments is a history class it still manages to be quite a bit of a challenge. Making Christ Known was a class I did not want to take, but God changed my plans. It has proven to be a delightful, inspiring, fun, learning class. There are about 12 students: 8 guys, 4 gals. In both of my classes I'm no longer the youngest, I got beat out by a 14 year old and a 16 year old. Next week is the last week of class!!!!!! My family and I are all extremely excited. Then I have 2 months off of school. During break I plan to read books on finances, do some cleaning, celebrate Christmas and New Years, and who knows what all else.

Before session 2 started I turned 20. It's proven to be a fairly enjoyable age. The verse I picked out for this year of being 20 is Proverbs 9:10 "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the Knowledge of the Holy One is understanding". My goal is to be a lady that fears the Lord and I'm actively growing in my knowledge of Him. I'm looking forward to what the next 11 months hold!

The transition to a new church has been fairly smooth. We are meeting new people and working on developing new friendships. This is church is very actively reaching out to our community, seeking to follow God in everything, and just overall shaking up the "going through the motions Christian". God is using this church in my life for good.
