As most of you have realized by this time, I might not be the most consecutive blog poster of all time. That being said, each time I do post something my post percentage does get better.
Christmas break for the most part went great! I was able to visit with the family, meet up with long distance friends from out of state, go to my home church, have a beach bonfire, work some at my old job and have the opportunity to go to Passsion2013 in Atlanta.
Passion was a total God thing. I found of that I was going at 9am December 31st, the ride to get there was leaving at 3pm that same day. I had to pack, change work schedules and everything but God made sure that everything just fell into place and was able to get there and enjoy some wonderful speakers, make great new friends, refresh my soul and be spoken to by the Lord. He knew that the conference was something that I needed and made sure that I got there.
I am back at school in the Valley (Rio Grande Bible Institute), for the semester and will be finishing up with the language program in this May.
While I wasn't the keenest about Christmas break coming to an end, I was a happier about being back than I expected after arriving. It has been great seeing everyone and catching up on what they did for break. Classes started the 8th and I have already completed a full be week of schooling. This semester on top of what the class dictates me to take, I will also be taking Vida Familiar on Monday nights. This is a Bible school class and I will be taking it with the rest of the normal students that are not in the language program. I have been told that it is a very good class and am looking forward to it, although it does mean that I will be reading close to fifty pages a week in Spanish for this class alone. It will be worth it though. This semester is going to be packed!
Prayer requests:
School load - this will be a busy semester with all the classes and school work.
Job - Trying to get hired at the Academy across the street to help pay for school and daily expenses. Pray that if God wants me to have a job that I will be hired and if not that I will not get the job so that I can focus on other things.
Health - I have had a cough since March of 2012. I have been to the doctor twice for it and so far they do not know what I have. For wisdom.
Focus - That I will stay on track to finish all my work in a timely manner and make the best use of my time.
Stay warm and come back soon! Another update at the end of the month to follow!!!
