Fly-By

It's hard to believe that I've been out of high school for 6 years and out of Bible College for 4 years. Wow, it makes me feel old. But at the same time, I am so young! I still have my whole life ahead of me. I don't have a career, or a wife, or fancy things, but I do have a lot of life experience--a lot of experience that I never would have gained had I pursued a degree. I can take these experiences with me back to school--experiences that a lot of my colleagues won't have. I believe that all things happen for a purpose. I did not continue to pursue a degree 4 years ago and I don't regret it. I don't think I would have really known what to do with it at the time. But that's beside the point.


And so, I will go back to school in the fall with my head held high and my mind full of dreams & visions. Being in the process of applying for school kind of brings things into perspective, so it seems. I think a lot of things combined help bring life into perspective. Friends, jobs, books, decisions, thinking--these are all potentially life changing things. Hold on to what you have and don't look back. We only get one shot so give it all you've got. Even if you mess up, no worries. Realize your mistake, ask forgiveness from those involved, and move on. God has blessed all who trust in Him--realize this.


I covet your prayers, as I also try and remember to pray for you, my friends.
