Well I made it, **sigh**. Today was the last day of work for 2008. This fall I would say has probably been the worst trial of my life, but as I look back I can barely see the trial, all I see is the treasure of the trial. There is no way I could have made it through these last 4 months if God hadn't been there every step of the way. I was thinking about it last week as I was spending time with the Lord and it reminded me of a verse in a sweet hymn that I love.
Let the treasures of the trial
Form within me as I go -
And at the end of this long passage,
Let me leave them at Your throne.
Reflecting back on this fall, I can totally see the Lord's hand in the trials, in the ups and downs, in the tears and tears and tears, in the sickness, in the restoration, and in His word. He has called me to this place and I am so thankful that He never leaves me nor forsakes me. I will look back on the fall of 2008 as a defining moment in my walk with the Lord and I will never be the same.
I finished my classes with A's in both of them which is so wonderful. I am only one small step away from receiving my clean license! Wow!! Then it's time to see what God has in this next phase of my life. I am looking forward to seeing where He is going to lead me, and no matter where it is I know He will be with me every step of the way and that brings such peace.
I am looking forward to the next 2 weeks to get recharged and rest!
