Arise, Shine

Arise,
Shine,
For your light has come,
and the glory of the Lord
rises upon you.
See, darkness covers the earth
and thick darkness is over the oeples,
but the Lord rises upon you,
and His glory appears over you.
Nations will come to your light
and kings
to the brightness of your dawn.
Lift up your eyes
and look about you;
your sons from afar
and your daughters
are carried on the arm.
Then you will look radiant.
your heart will throb and swell with joy;
The wealth on the seas
will be brought to you,
and the riches of the nations
will come.
~Isaiah 60:1-5

Journey

Ok number one, every time I get on here I realize that I do not write often enough. I get these great ideas about things to write, but I don't get to this page nearly enough.
Number two, I registered for classes this week. Now, this is not the first time I have done so. In fact I have registered for classes six other times over the past four years. This time is the last time I will register for classes (at least for now). This means I graduate in May!
Yes that is an exclamation point. I am excited. But I am also absolutely terrified. For those of you who know me, you know that I am a planner and I like to be in control. Yet as May gets closer and closer, the next step still is not planned. Control is slipping out of my hands a little more each day. And that scares me.
Yet God has surrounded me with some of the most amazing people. These people are reminding me day after day that I need not worry. You see I serve this really big God. He is way bigger than I could even imagine. He understands more than I ever possibly could. And He is directing my steps.
So, no I don't know where I am going to be or what I will be doing after I graduate. But I do know I serve a big God. And He will guide me and be with me all along the journey.
