Here we go!!!

Sometimes the future seems to creep up on you and bight you on the backside. I downloaded the application to seminary last October...filled it out in December and sent in my application in January. The reality of seminary seemed so far into the future. Along the way there were a few hiccups. None major, but sometimes I wondered if God would put such a large hurdle in the path to seminary that I would not go...or that my entry into seminary would be delayed. But as each hurdle came, God found a way to get me over it. And, so it went, before I knew it I had plane tickets to St. Louis...then a hotel room, then the seminary admissions office e-mailed me my class schedule and last week I received an e-mail with my book list...this is starting to get real!!! All this while my daughter enters her last days at home before heading off to college...boy, things are going to be different around our house pretty soon! I know there will be more hurdles over the next few years and so I know I will have to rely even more on God to get me over those hurdles, yet I am confident I am following the path He wants me on...so Concordia Seminary, here I come!
