What are you up to?

Goodness, I've been studying Christian Heritage for about an hour and a half and I just don't know if I can take it any more! I've got some pretty outrageous review sheets going on for the majority of my classes... Daunting, I must say. But I only have to hold it together for 5 more days and I will be done with my 3rd semester at Baylor University. Man, time flies. I can't believe I'm approaching being halfway done with my college career. That is just crazy. It seems that I've lost touch with a lot of people this semester. Sorry guys. I've been getting really involved in life here at school, which is a good thing, but I never intended to drop all of my other relationships. I hope you haven't felt that way! I've been reminded in the past couple of days just how much God has blessed me this semester primarily through getting plugged in at my church. My passion is for the Body of Christ and helping others to grow in Him, and Highland has fed that passion for me. I've been blessed to help teach Kindergarten Sunday school, work in Awana Cubbies, be in a Community Group (Highland College Small group), and lead a Community Group this semester. I'm absolutely loving it. Mabel and I are planning to live in an apartment with two of the girls in our community group next year and I couldn't be more excited. There is always stuff going on, and I just wish I could have everyone I love experience all of the amazing things that go on here. I've also been blessed through some wonderful classes this semester. The past week or so I've been kind of bogged down, feeling disappointed that my grades may not end up as high as I'd like. But I had to stop and reevaluate some stuff. I have learned a tremendous amount this semester. I have loved the majority of my classes and I know that I am walking into another semester better understanding how I learn and what my weaknesses are. That is what matters. It's not all about making straight A's and getting on the dean's list. I just want to walk away from this semester carrying all of the things that have helped to shape me into who I am and use those things as tools to shape others that I encounter. As I said, my passions have been fed this semester, not just through Highland, but through school as well. I'm really excited about classes next semester and I know that God has great things to teach me. I can't wait to find out what they are :o)

I hope that gives you a little bit of a taste of what my life's been like lately. I'd love to hear about what's going on in your life! Leave me a comment or drop me an email!
