studies.

i am taking two classes this next semester. one already started.

but i don't want to just add to my limited knowledge. i want the truth to transform me. i pray that would happen this semester. i want to take the mornings and devote them to my personal devotion...and for the later evenings to be for my actual studies. i know i will learn from my disciplined studies...but i also want to keep cultivating that soft spirit and interaction in prayer in the morning. so...keep me accountable. whoever reads this. i see that as long as i know that someone somewhere heard me say i am dedicated to this...it's much harder to back down.

my fear of God should drive me more than my fear of men...but, i see accountablity as much needed.

oh...clear my mind tonight Father...that i would exemplify you tomorrow. a new job...a new life...new people to shine your light to. oh...that i would be a representative for you tomorrow!

oh...that i would leave behind this heartache...and continue to open my heart to you.

thanks for loving me...thanks for caring more about my heart than the ministry around me. go deeper...dig into me Lord...point out the wrong ways my heart is...and how my words hurt those around me....may my words be reflective of you...and gentle and kind and patient...a spirit of patience and not one of pride.
