Patience and Perseverance

Is it really only Wednesday?....well technically it is Thursday, although the business that is Thursday has not yet begun.




Patience-most definitely the word of the day for Tuesday. An hour wait for a TB Test followed by an hour and 45 minute wait for a parking decal...enough said.



Perseverance-Curriculum began today. A whole semesters worth of assignments dumped in the laps of students unaware of just how daunting these tasks will truly be. Thank goodness for my wonderful curriculum partner Kylie! Best of friends since freshman year and about to tackle probably the most challenging project of our academic careers to date!

Colossians 1:1:17 comes to mind..."He is before ALL things and in Him ALL things hold together." He has a plan and He will provide everything I need. :)



I finally picked up the devotional by Dr. Jones. Tears filled my eyes as I read the first several pages while waiting in line at the bookstore on campus. I'm sure looks were shot in my direction but I could not help but imagine the pain she went through as she revealed details of a childhood filled with fear and brokenness. She truly is a beautiful picture of perseverance.

Tomorrow, another day. A day I am so thankful for, ups and downs, smiles and tears....every day is a blessing.

And so it begins...
