*Too Long!*

Wow! It's been a while since I have written! I guess the only real reason is that I have been ridiculously busy!! But, it's an exciting busy!! I don't know where in the world to start! The best way to catch up is probably with pictures! I'll post some below! In a nutshell, though, the Lord's perseverance has proven to be sooo strong in my life.  The Lord has made it quite evident in my life that I have wandered away from His perfect plan in the past and that I needed to give up everything, every detail of my life that my own control and desires have reign in... and give it to Him...! Although they were and still are very difficult to deal with, as promised, the Lord never left my side! I never realized true surrender to the Lord would be so difficult... but then again, I never realized that sin had such a hold on my life, even as the Lord's child! But, when each day's path seemed unsure, when my restless heart wanted to give in, and when my trust, faith and patience were and still are being tested, it is then, in these hard times, that I'm able to realize and really feel God's hands holding onto me. It's strange how and why it takes such hard circumstances and so many tears to experience God's truths even after knowing and reading of them for years. I am so fortunate and so blessed, though, to be a saved child of God's to be able to feel His presence in my life. Without the Lord, I am absolutely nothing. There's a reason He brought me here, to this place down the path that I've had to come through... but, all in all, I cannot wait to see what the Lord has prepared for me in my future for His glory! :) So, as far as this life goes, let's try to catch up here! Hmmm April 17th I finally quit my job!!! Wha hooo! Wow, that was the best day ever! I walked out of there with a huge smile on my face! I spent the summer days being a lazy beach bum filling my days with activities like boogy-boarding, sharkstooth hunting, nature trail walking, gym training, and of course brim, bass and whatever else- FISHING!! Haha! Wow, this will probably go down in the books as the best summer ever! ah! So, my family came to visit in spring! That was fun! Then let's see what else... I went wakeboarding and actually got up for the first time, I went to see my parents in Washington where we went hiking, picnicking, Smallville touring, and Canada-roadtripping! While there, I found out that I got into Nursing school!!!! AAAAHHH!!! I have been waiting for that for a very very long time now! Great Great news!! I'm still praying about what the Lord wants me to with this and my Nursing/Medical career! There are so many options and as I go down this path, I'm praying that He will reveal His will in my career... to me! Basically, the Lord is truly working in my life in it seems like every single aspect of my life and the only truth I know is that He is not done with me yet and that He is constantly working in and through me as I long to follow Him every single day of my life! It's hard to believe I could be much happier!! :o) Phewf that's a lot of stuff huh?!
