October Already???

I can't believe that it's October already. Time passes by so fast these days. I can hardly keep track of the days. Midterms are here, along with papers, and soon before I know it it'll be finals. Well here's the update on me y'all...just incase you were all wondering where in the world I've ended up. So here the story goes...

After the wedding life slowed down, as much as it does for Ryan and I, and everything got back to normal. Ryan's still working for his boss Joe and finishing up his apprenticeship as a stone mason. He loves his job so much. I went back to work at good ol' Reid's Independent. I started off there as a casheir and now I'm in between customer service and the front end supervisor. The girls/ladies there are great. It's a pretty good job.

Along with working this summer I spent a lot of it reflecting on life. You know...just thinking about where I have been heading towards and my decisions. I've been doing so many things to please other people, rather than thinking of myself. I tend to do that though. It's a bad habit. Anywho, with the thinking came the praying...asking God what to do next. What did he want me to do? It was in my school's moto, "pursuing passion and excellence", that lay part of my answer. I was no longer pursuing my passion something I longed to do. Long story short I decided not to return to Heritage. I contacted Laurentian and re-enrolled into the Bachelor of Social Work with a double major in Social Work and History. Something I absolutely love. I have never been so challenged by the course material or other classmates before. God has also opened so many doors for me to share bits of my experiences and past with others? I even met two people who had attended a Bible College prior to now. It's crazy how God introduces the right people into your life just at the right time. His timing is always perfect.

Looking back so much has changed since April yet everything seems the same. Kind of weird, eh? Who know God would lead me on such a interesting journey. Leaving high school I would have never thought I'd have attended a Bible College or actually be accepted into university. I guess it just goes to show just what God can do in one's life. Thanks God.
