My break in Va Beach last weekend was refreshing and timely. I was so thankful for the time spent with Grace, with Gramps and Gram, with Kirk Lehner, and the added blessing of seeing Uncle Matt from Northland! The brief but quality time helped me relax, refocus, and even reconsider my purpose here. I'm not ready to quit school, but I am striving to find how the Lord wants me to gain for eternity in everything I do, and not just to store knowledge for the here and now. I did come back from my weekend with some looming questions, but have since had a good talk with my wise mom, and I am confident that the Lord will continue to guide me. I feel somewhat like a pendulum swinging back and forth, but (if the analogy holds) it should continue to narrow its width of extremes.
Thank you to those of you who pray for me. I covet these more than ever as my presently fewer opportunities for spiritual fellowship give thanks for those of the past and confidently hope for the future. I rest in the comforting assurance of God's perfect provision in every area of my life. He Himself is what makes it so. The Giver has provided a Gift that cannot be surpassed.

Anna, my dear friend, keep on keeping on. I love you! "Am I not still the God of time? Make I mistakes? Have I no mind? If I should sovereign choose to wait, while you yet live...Anticipate! Prepare O bride, let eyes grow dim. Die, lesser sights. Cast eyes on Him. Spend yourself 'til stage be set. Beloved disciple, love still yet." -Beth Moore Only in heaven will we understand and be able to see what all God did in the rough times of life. "What He does, He does to make us more holy."-this is something my pastor's wife always says.
love,
Amy
