Sorry for the delay, friends. This past Monday (when I had
hoped to post my second blog post) we had our very first assignments due &
I got a little caught up in them. So I apologize for the delay & hope not
to have it happen again!
My word for the past (almost) two weeks would have to be
time-management. Truly learning time-management, that is. As class,
assignments, discipleship, internships, and everyday life has started to take
off I am beginning to learn that 24 hours in a day is not very much time when
you have not planned well. I
thought I had learned time-management by now, but I have never had this much to
balance and this much encouragement to strive for excellence in everything…even
my planning. It excites me to see how much the Lord can do when we even hand
our schedule over to Him. I am beginning to learn that time is a resource we
can use to our benefit or watch it pass us by.
This week we were also given our accountability partners for
the year, and God totally knew what was up! Per usual I might add!! Not only
was it perfect timing, as things were starting to become tasks rather than
opportunities for growth, but He knew exactly who to place as my accountability
partner. Shelby and I went to high school together, once a Bearkat always a Bearkat,
I guess! However, it is so much more than that. Shelby has such a genuine soul;
she wants to seek Christ at the root of it all with a real, passionate, &
relentless spirit! I am so excited to see what grand adventures the Lord has in
store for her, our time together, and the year a head! He is good, and knows my
heart & need far better than I do myself!
So the truth of the matter is I haven’t completely figured
out the whole time-management thing. Even as I have struggled to write this
post today I have failed to do many other things I needed to get done. However,
I am learning. God is being faithful in so many small and big things that I can’t
help, but try to manage the time He has given me here. There is so much to
learn & so many people with stories that need to be known & loved. He
has given me so much and so in return, I can give Him my time!
RECAP:
Learning

send them my way)
Pray for Shelby and I
