Well, it has certainly been awhile since my fingers have thought to type out a message for my blog. I'm not really sure why my little blog crossed my mind. Perhaps I am just needing another outlet in which to scribe my thoughts and feelings.
The journey I have taken the last year has been...interesting, to say the least. 13 months from the first time I ever went to the one true church, it feels like I have come to roost at home. In just a little more than a month, I will celebrate my one year anniversary of being a baptized and confirmed member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. What an amazing 11 months it has been! The closer my 1 year come to fruition, the more I find myself reflecting over my testimony, conversion, and faith in Christ. I do not expect to have nearly all of the answers I desire when that 12 month date finally comes, but I hope to have more than what I do now.
For the first time in awhile, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to school. By this summer, I will have my associate's degree in English. After a year overseas in Germany (hopefully!), I will return and finish my bachelor's degree in English and German. Before I know it, I will be sitting behind a desk at a high school (somewhere away from the God forsaken heat of Texas), trying my hardest to enlighten the hormone riddled minds of the next generation.
I am slowly but surely learning to let go of the things that I can not change, to make plans for the future but not be disappointed if they turn out differently than I thought, to accept all of the twist and turns Heavenly Father sends my way and recognize them for the blessings they are.
