Going Atop Mt. Vernon

Tomorrow I'm heading back to school. I'm pretty excited! I miss my friends, my dorm room, the student center, and classes- everything minus homework and studying! I even kinda miss the routine of school.


My schedule next semester looks like it may be a little tough. That's okay. I'm ready!


I will have the opportunity to go back to my school church ( As I like to call it, my home away from home church.) as the part-time youth leader. YAY!! I have missed the youth there. Unlike my summer group, this group consist mainly of girls with a couple of boys. I love them. I love watching them grow. However, I have to admit I get discouraged easily. This is so new to me. I'm doing the best I can, but there is so much I don't know. Youth are fickle, amazing, but fickle all the same. :) Yet, I'm so much more prepared than I was when I started at the end of last semester. I have spent this summer training, learning, and just plain experiencing. As I have said earlier, I have grown so much closer to my Savior through my mission experience. I feel so much more prepared, not neccessarily because I'm any better at leading youth, but because I have learned to depend on Him! Amen!


I'm ready for the work load. I'm ready to learn in all aspects of my being. Each year of school, I feel one step closer to God. I know I'm where I'm suppose to be. I question it every year, but God is faithful every time to remind me that I am in His hands.


So, here I go. I'm headed to the top of Mt. Vernon. :)


My blogging may slow down, but I will still try to blog frequently. I will definitely be stopping by and reading blogs- even on days I don't blog myself! :)


In His love,

Jennifer
