Jeremiah 29:11

...Its been a very long time, and without going into detail, since I last blogged God has radically changed my life! !

I am back at school now and have begun my fall semester classes. I am taking eight classes this semester, which all seem to be very interesting so far. Each of my professors are great, and their passion for Christ and for teaching is truly evident in their lives. I think my favorite classes this semester will be my Art/Music/P.E. for Early Grades class and Christ and Culture class. 

Along with starting a new semester and having new classes, I have also moved off campus! I moved into a house with three other girls about four and a half miles from school. Our house is absolutely adorable, and we are loving cooking, cleaning, having our own space, and being more "independent"! It has already been a huge learning experience. 

As I said before, God has radically changed my life. My walk with Christ is stronger then it has ever been before and I have found myself falling more and more in love with Him each day. I am very grateful for all God is doing, and I am so excited about this time in my life. My prayer is that my eyes stay fixed on Jesus and that He continues to be my focus, my center, and the source of all my peace, love, strength, and joy!  A verse that has ministered to my heart in so many ways recently is Isaiah 43:1 which says, "Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are Mine!" Each and everyday I continue to find myself utterly amazed by God and His goodness. 

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." - Jeremiah 29:11
