Hello my friends. It has indeed been a long time since I've added anything but, well, life happens. I guess as I reflect over my summer I can't really rate it in any way. You see it's not as if I can't just slap a grand 5 stars on in and say it was fantastic, because it really wasn't. However, what I can say, is that it was a God filled summer. God has been with me and has been helping me to grow and to see Him as my ONLY source of strength. God is good, all the time. Since, God is good I guess I have to say my summer was good. Just good.

My classes start this next Monday, pray for me. :) It's very interesting, I spend a lot of the summer months longing to come back and get into the classes, the give and take of Theology discussions, notes, and even the reading, but now that I'm here, I'm doubting. Will I make it or will I fold.. again? The only comfort I find is in knowing that I'm not alone. One, I have many brothers in this journey and we all will fight in the battle together. They are good men. Men like me who are being tempered into not only being able to stand their ground but also taking the high ground as well. Two, I know that God is with me and as long as I keep first things first the rest will fall into place. He will never fail! And as I close this brief look into my present life situation I leaving you with this resounding statement, a quote from one of the most godliest men I've ever had the privilege of meeting. "I WILL BE THE LORD'S."

Let's keep pressing my friends.
