I have been unofficially accepted to Liberty University in Virginia. I am going to get my M.A.R. (Master's in Religion) Seminary is something that I have been thinking about as early as 1998. So NOW, 12 years later, it is finally becoming a reality. I am excited and even better I have a peace about this. I had a desire to go to University of Texas at Arlington for my Master's in Education however, when you don't feel a peace about things you shouldn't go ahead and do it just cause. ( I learned this the hard way.) I am excited about this new venture and will need lots of encouragement and prayer.
The other day someone (my sis) made a comment that really made me think. She said she thought I was a "Church Junkie." If you know this sister you know that she chooses her words carefully so as to make the recipient think. This was no different. Prior to this conversation I had decided that I would go to our Saturday and Sunday Easter services. Saturday so I could relax, and participate as a member in the congregation and Sunday b/c I was singing in the choir and would help lead in the worship music. So as it turned out I am a "church junkie" and I wouldn't have it any other way. That is where my friends are, my faith grows and I can corporately worship the Father. The church, my church, is a place where people/I can go to get fed. It is by no means perfect and neither am I but for me it beats bars, clubs and, I can't believe I am about to say this but, shopping. It honestly makes me sad that others don't have a place of refuge.
Next decision: Bible study I feel like I need to do another study. Not for them but for me. I don't know what though so I will be praying about that as well. We just finished Sweeter than Chocolate a Study on the 119th Psalm and I needed to be reminded of how I can dwell on God's word and He will guide me in all I do. There is still so much that I need to learn. Oy.
Lastly Voy a las Islas Canarias otra vez.
Ore para mi..
:-)
Adios
You're going to the Canary Islands again?! (At least, that's what I think that says!). Sounds like fun! Will you be studying from here, or moving to Virginia?????
ReplyDeleteI will be here. I do not plan on moving. I just want my Masters and yes Canary Islands again. You would love it. It was neat to teach kids from/in another country.
