Life...

So I have decided that life is just too crazy. I have all these plans and they always get muffed up. I understand that I need to be patient and just let things work out the way they are supposed to, but that is so hard. I am the type of person that has to see the end results. I have to know and not knowing is one of the hardest things for me. I know it all has to do with aligning my will with God's and having the faith to know that everything works out in the end. Thats the part that gets me. Its always a challenge for me. I think Im getting better, but sometimes it just gets to me. Things just pile up and it gets hard to balance it all. Thank goodness for the tender mercies the Lord sends. The people who smile at you for no reason and a message that only says "I Love You" from a family member or friend exactly when you need it. The Lord knows what we need when we need it. He will never leave us alone. What a comfort that is in this world that is so unpredictable and dark. I am grateful for the knowledge I have. Even though life is difficult and its hard, I know it would be more of a challenge without that light to guild me through the darkest of days. I guess life isnt as bad as I thought it was. It could be much worse.

Who's Proud!?

After much scolding from my sisters, I have decided to update my blog. I just want to explain that I honestly don't remember that I even have a blog until Amy so kindly tells me how horrible I am at doing it. You can thank her for her warm prompts to update this.
My life...well, nothing too exciting. I finished my first semester of the education program. The end of the semester, to put it lightly, was the worst experience of my life. I am fairly certain I did not sleep the last two weeks of school. But I passed and got the best grades I have ever gotten in college. So I can not complain. Hard work always pays off.
I am going to call it a night, but I promise I will try and remember to not be so terrible at this whole blog thing. At least I am pretty consistant with updating every six months or so. Not too shabby.
