School!!

At first I was completely against sticking around long enough for Jason and I to get through 4 years of school. When God so clearly told me "Go!" I really didn't think He meant "Go! But wait a while first!" I have to admit, I fought with God on this one because I didn't understand. I didn't see the value of waiting..... so long.......... It seemed like an eternity!

Towards the end of March, God brought me to a place of understanding in my prayer time with Him. He showed me why He wanted us to go to school first, and that His "Go" was what we needed to begin getting prepared to Go. I began looking into different schools and routes of study, mostly with Jason in mind. But that night of prayer, God told me that I needed to go with Jason, that the two of us were going to enter a journey of uncountable value, incomprehensible bounty, and unfathomable growth. He needed my there to be strength for my husband, who would be going through what I cannot understand. This was going to be hard on us, on our family but the weakness that we share will be brought to Glory in Christ who is our strength.

Now we are enrolled in our first class and over half way through. It's a Perspectives course and has been fantastic!! We are also enrolled in our first semester at Columbia Bible College in Abbotsford, B.C. Canada to study for the four year degree in Intercultural Studies. We have paid our tuition, and have a pledge from a family at our church to pay for our books. Jason picked out a backpack and some cool school supplies, as did the rest of the family. It will be an interesting ride having 6 of us in school this year from Kindergarten through College levels!

I can't wait to share our journey on this blog, I know I have been absent for a while now, but I will try to keep this updated! I continue to connect my past with my future in regards to how God uses every part of our lives to build our path. It is so exciting to see it all unfolding.
