let me catch you up to now.

When I last wrote I was in a difficult place.  I'll admit it, I was struggling.  If you don't know what I'm talking about, read this post. 

We've now passed the one year point where I felt like my world was falling apart.  I don't mean that in an overly dramatic sense, really.  But it really felt like everything I had worked for was lost.  My perspective has changed so much in the last weeks and months.  I'm working part time still, but today was a new beginning.

I started school again.  This time for Accounting.  Those that know me well probably know that I'm "good with numbers."  I enjoy it, actually.  So, I'm hoping I'll enjoy this.  I'm not sure right now exactly where this is leading me, but it's the beginning of a new road.

I struggled for awhile with the thought that all of my work in my degrees for teaching was wasted.  However, I firmly believe that God has a purpose in all things and has and will open doors because of this work.  My passion for children has not wavered and I am excited to be serving in the Sunday School ministry at church to some pretty cute 4 and 5 year olds. 

I think God is weaving all of these things together for the future.  Like I said, I don't know what that means right now exactly.  I kind of wish I did, but I'm working on being ok that I don't. 

Someone recently told me when I said I was changing my course was that I probably wasn't really changing.  Rather, I am expanding my course and God is so good at weaving it all together.  I'm embarking on a journey I never expected...and I have to, absolutely have to TRUST, that God will be faithful to the end.
