When I was little my mother LOVED Amy Grant, so you can imagine how many times I heard "you don't know what you got till its gone" growing up. It really resonated this week however, when I went back to Hamilton for a week. In Hamilton I have the most amazing friends, and there is a real community out of the church I attended. I am missing the community that I was blessed to live in in Hamilton, but I know I am where God wantes me.
I also believe that in the life God wants me to lead, I will not always have a tight community around me. I really feel that I am being prepared for future ministry, where I will be alone at times, and I will feel lonely at times. I know God is with me thoguh, and I know He helps me through.
If anyone is reading this THANK YOU for the small or large part you have played in my life. You are really valued.

I did it
I finally, actually started a blog of my very own. After watching Ellen for over a year from the comfort and privacy of m own home, I decided to take the plunge, jump on in and create a blog.
Anyway, I am coming to the end of my first term as a teacher. This has been one of the most exciting, scary, fun and challenging times of my life. Today I read a devotional on ww.crosswalk.com, for professional women, and part of it really resonated with me, so I figured I would share it with you. It is talking about promotions and new assignments, and I figured that, as someone first beginning my career, everything is a new assignment.
"If this is you, rest assured that you can with Jesus walking alongside you. God has raised you up for such a time as this. He has prepared you, and He has already provided everything you need to accomplish what He has set you out to do. Whatever you do not know, God will reveal to you in His creative ways. And He will bring others who have the knowledge or connections you need. He will give you revelations throughout the journey. And if you ever feel “stuck,” He’ll send someone to lovingly give you the shove you need."
Anyway, Thats all for now. I will be in Hamilton on Saturday/ Sunda so if anyone is actually reading this, I'll see you all then.
