Beginning a New Chapter

This past year has been a busy one for me!

For Starters, I have successfully graduated from grade 12 with my Adult Dogwood Diploma. The journey of being homeschooled from the beginning has been exciting each and every day and truly a blessing from the Lord. As I am the youngest in my family my mom now is done teaching us kids and we are beginning a new chapter, specifically in my own life.

 

This summer I was able to work Full time as a Straw Boss at Klaassen Farms a local Blueberry Farm. It was an excellent experience that really grew me in ways that I couldn't imagine.                                                      

Now that the summer is over and farm work is done I have just recently begun taking courses on my way to serve the Lord in full time ministry in our local church. Ever since shortly after I was saved I have had a growing passion for the church. It is my desire and I believe it is Gods will that I work in full-time ministry in the church. Christ himself said in Matthew 16:18b - "...upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hades will not overpower it."

I firmly believe that this is true and I firmly believe that the Lord wants me to be a part of this work on earth, that is, building his church. Right now I am taking courses through the DEEP program and Masters Seminary Online.

I do hope to continue blogging this year, (and this time I mean it!) I have lots of homework that gets me studying the Word of God daily, (imagine that privilege!) so I will be posting what I have written or studied throughout the year. As you can already see I have put up my first post on the Gospel of John. I really hope these will be a blessing to someone, and I not, they are a blessing to me as I continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of my Saviour.  

 

Blessings,
