I really am bad at this

So I am not good at keeping up with this. If it counts for anything I want to get better I really do! Part of it is time and part of it is I feel like I don't have much to say or worth saying, or the things in my head won't come out right or I am not ready to share yet.

A little update...I am in my last full week of classes and next week is finals. I cannot believe I am about to finish up my first year at Seminary. Preview conference was last weekend and man did I have flashbacks a year ago I was at that conference so excited to be here. I have learned so much in a year. My sin and shortcomings are ever before me in this place. I am aware of them here in a new way. The biggest thing God has shown me this year is how I am utterly dependent on him for everything. I can't take my next breath without him. I need him more today then yesterday and more tomorrow then today. There is nothing good in me that is not from God. I am aware of my depravity and my need for him in a new way this year. Classes have been so good, hard and not just work wise but so good! I am humbled and convicted as I sit in class and learn more truths about God and the Bible. At some point I may write more about what I have learned so far and what God has done but I still need to process.

In other news I am going to VA for this summer, which was not the original plan but I am excited to go back! I will be working at Bethel again for the third summer and I am super excited about that I love those girls!

Time for systematic II but if you have time read Revelation 21 great stuff! Beautiful!
