It's September? really?

It's been too long and it's time for an update. The fall quarter has begun with a lot of new things underway. After a lot of praying, thought, and conversation I've decided that it's time for a change of pace after this school year. My mind is tired: after this year I will have been in school at the university and graduate level for six years. According to scripture that would mean it's time for a sabbath. Not only is it time, but rather a command...the seventh year. This means I've decided to postpone my law school plans. I still plan to attend eventually, but I need a few years to live my life in a different way. Instead of absorbing knowledge I want to offer it. I want to spend some time working as a teacher, inner city if God allows. I also want to move and be independent. If I get a job I'll be able to flesh out some of my thoughts about tithing and giving. I want to learn more about personal finance and use it to honor and advance the kingdom. A lot of thoughts laced in a wealth of hope.

I've grown, and love is piercing a lot of the bitterness that I experienced this past summer.

Oh, how He loves us


maybe Nashville...
