4 more days till my 4th year at Western is over. Nostalgia is hitting like a huge wave. I distinctly remembered the tears of packing up and leaving Essex Hall in 1st yr, a bit scared of what Summit Ave. will hold for me. Summit turned out to be the place of blessings, love and answered prayer. Now as I pack up to leave this quaint little street, again the tears flow, as I realize the Lord's faithfulness, His promises, and seeing how He is preparing these grads for their future. I already miss you guys oh so much, and most of you haven't even left yet. The work you have built in my heart and spirit, I'll never forget...and I thank God for the times we've had. I love each of you dearly, which makes it so hard to part......sigh...*HUG*

Each day has been filled with certain joys, and mourning losses, all the while...praising the Father. He IS good and will carry us through.

This day last year I was done school...and was having the time of my life. But I'm glad I've got latest possible exam this year. Gives us all a couple bonus moments together. :o) Beaver Hall here we come! It's gonna be a great community as well.... *smile*

Easter Sunday

I wrote this while studying at Weldon today...

my life is in His Hand, surrender, not control is what He demands
no greater joy and wonder is known to man, than to be part of God's sovereign plan
to live and bring glory to Jesus' name, who defeated death, sin and shame
I worry not of what I am to do or bring, for He will right everything

Jesus Christ is RISEN!

I had a wonderfully scary dream last night. I often dream quite vividly, and can remember the sights, smells, sounds, and emotions I go through in each. Can dreams be God-given, or just the inner-workings of our subconscious? It definitely can be either, or both...but as Turk would say (in Scrubs) "my dreams are freaky...Cirque Du Soleil freaky!"

This dream brought back someone I had forgotten 7 yrs ago. What's disturbing is that I thought in my head, and felt in my heart that I've dealt with it all, and have never looked back in regret. Now it's afresh in my mind, as I wonder if I will or could revert back to my old self. Cuz I sure did in that dream. *shudder*

It says in 1 Cor 10:13-14 No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it.

There is fear in me that somehow I will settle, and will stop abiding in Him. I know its not our own doing that we have this personal relationship with our Father through Christ. This self-hood thing sucks...need to keep reminding myself that I am free, especially from me.

aww....they're in love....get your hands off her, Kelvin! 

glamour shot...I know she would be embarrassed to have her pix up here...but she doesn't read my blog...lol. 

Karen and Kelvin....*gasp* can't believe that's my sister looking glam in a wedding dress!
