Where has the time gone? I look up and it's two days before the new year -- псих! I leave for Colorado again in the predawn of the 3rd for my last semester at CCU. I will be Student Teaching there with a class of 2nd graders whom I have been with last semester as well. I will head back and see my roommates and friends who are also on the same path come May 10th.
As I start to think about what 2014 will hold, I must admit that I am nervous. The culmination of my life thus far is now coming to an end and I have to trust God to know what the future will hold. I was sitting with my dog Henry down at the river and thought of the beginning of the movie "P.S. I Love You:" It relays beautifully what I was talking to God about:

I was sitting with my dog Henry down at the river and thought of the beginning of the movie "P.S. I Love You:" It relays beautifully what I was talking to God about:
Holly: I see people buying bigger apartments and having babies.
I get so afraid sometimes our life's never gonna start.
Gerry: No, baby. We're already in our life. It's already started.
This is it.
This is it. This is my life and God has it mapped out. My job is to spend time opening my heart and eyes to what He has planned so that I can hear what He is trying to tell me. Finishing my degree, starting a classroom, living in Russia, finding a family, loving people, farming, and supporting/encouraging/loving kids are desires of my heart that God placed there and I have to trust that He will close doors or open them as He sees fit. And me? My life is happening now... release the future to His control and understand that He is sovereign, loving, and just.
