Back to School..For the Last Time!

I don't have a lot of time {or energy} to write anything long or profound right now.

But I wanted to share with you all what I'm up to this week.

I started my senior year of college. Yup.
 In a few short months I will be done.

I will be graduated with my bachelors degree in Biblical Studies and History come this May!!

Part of me knows I will probably never use this. Part of me is already getting stressed and wants to be done. Part of me wants to solely focus on my Etsy shop and other ways of figuring out how to work from home.

But
The other part of me loves it!
The other part...
Loves sitting in class soaking up lectures...
Reading the Bible for school work....
Learning how to read the Bible in it's original languages {Hands down best part of my education}...
Loves knowing that the education I receive now will help me be a better mother and home school teacher...
Loves not having to work my boring secretary job full time like I do in the summer! Know it's only nearly full time ;)...

And so much more!

God has blessed me with a wonderful position to get an incredible education and learn some amazing things!

I will be content in this moment and throughout this year knowing that I am following God's will and learning important things that I can pass on to my kids.

{AND In other words don't forget to check out the giveaway I've got going on this week!}

Praise the Lord for What He HAS Given Us

For 31 days I am committing to Praise the Lord through all things. Go HERE to see my first post about it.

Today over at Extravagant Grace eLisa posted about the today's Praise Challenge. And this is one I could
type forever about. But I'll try and keep this post short.

Lately we have been talking about Praising the Lord in the midst of challenges and suffering and how important it is to remember him in all the seemingly bad moments.

But...what about the good moments?

All too often we even forget to give God all the glory even in the truly amazing things.

We get so wrapped up in the everyday walk of life that we forget to look back over the years and see how God has molded and shaped our journeys.

Today I am rejoicing and praising God for all that he has done for my husband and I.

Most of you know that my husband and I got married young. I was 19 and he was 21. Yikes! I know..but it was all God's plan and we couldn't be more happy now. Truly.

I never imagined getting married so young. I scoffed at those getting married so young thinking they were immature and it "would never last". Ouch. Those are the same things we heard when God called us together at the alter. But that is not what this post is about.

This post is about praising God for being patient with his sinful creatures and molding us day by day.

It is insane to me to think that my Husband and I have been married for one year and 3 1/3 months.

God has directed each step of our journey and we have gone from poor struggling college students, to not so poor students, to not so so poor college graduates and Lord willing whats next for us is kids, a house, and years spent homeschooling and building our family.

There were many points along the way we could have ignored His calling for us. We could have gone different paths but God gave us the strength to listen to His commands and He guided each and every one of our steps thus far.

God is so good and we are so excited to see what God has in store for us in the future.

I am praising God today for knowing all things and working them out for the good of all those who believe {James1:2-4}

Lord thank you. I praise you this day for your Sovereign Divine will. I praise you for being so gracious to your creatures and having patience with 2 people who can be so stubborn. I praise you this day and give thanksgiving for all things you have given us.
Amen


What do you have to Praise God for this day?
