Next!

I am seriously in awe at how fast this year has flown by...my nine months spent completing Second Year at BSSM appears to have disappeared like a vapor. The months that I have spent going to school at Bethel have been well spent and have abounded with numerous lessons and trials. I look back and see nothing but the goodness and faithfulness of God throughout my journey. He has most certainly surprised me, strengthened me, challenged me, but most of all He has shown His love that always remains. Through every up and down, twist and turn, I am constantly reminded of God's promises to me and the future He declares that He has for me. After returning from my incredible trip to Norway school went by in a flash. Since March I am being challenged to choose to listen to God's voice and His heart for my life and now I am being gently pushed into a deeper level of trust by returning to Canada for the summer. I trust God that He provides and that He is a God of His word! He also speaks to me about Him constantly being in my life. Over and over again, as many times as I listen, He tells me that where I go He also it going! My plans for the summer is to spend the three months I have with family in Edmonton and work, hopefully two jobs like I did last year, and then return to Redding for my third year of BSSM which is an internship. This internship has my heart racing and I am so excited to move on from the "schooling phase" to the "hands on phase"! I will be working with an organization based out of Northern California called I.Dignify and will be writing and serving this newly established ministry that sets captives free from the sex trafficking industry. I am very ready to serve I.Dignify's heart and vision and make a difference! Now...hopefully I'll have more opportunities to write in this blog and keep it up to date! This summer is completely unpredictable! :)
