we pray in class...

Y'all...we PRAY in class! I mean, I know a lot of people pray in school....like Dear God, please help me make a good grade, etc. But our professors pray FOR us. It is an amazing experience. The last teacher that I had actually pray with me during class time was in the second grade!
I really like my classes so far and I feel like I am really where I am supposed to be right now. What a GREAT feeling! Some of the subject matter is a little intimidating and I admit that I feel a little ill-equipped..but I can only learn more from here! So, if you haven't prayed for or with a student lately..do it..it's encouraging.

something a little more Texan..

Well, I had a stroke of genius when I woke up this morning. I decided to change the name. Something a little more Texan...I've been in Texas two weeks tomorrow and so far I have sung this song twice in a public setting! Once at a Baseball game and again at the intro to the seminary. What a hoot! So, in honor of the state...and the excitement that the folks here seem to have for this song..I'll change my title!

The stars at night - are big and bright
Deep in the heart of texas.
The prairie sky - is wide and high
Deep in the heart of texas.
The sage in bloom - is like perfume
Deep in the heart of texas.
Reminds me of - the one I love
Deep in the heart of texas.

Good ol' Texas welcome center!

Coming Full Circle

Well, I'm in. I now have a blog spot thing...I think this will be a fun way to keep in touch. And some dear friends have requested that I consider this. So, here I am.

I have entitled this "Coming full Circle" because:
1.My mom and uncles were born in Forth Worth Texas. (as well as other family ties, ie. grandmother and great grandmother)
2.Mom moved to GA where I was born and grew up.
3.I was "born again" if you will into the family of Christ.
4.My great grandfather and grandmother came from Munich, Germany
5.I lived and served in Germany from 2005-2007.
6.I have now moved to Dallas Texas (20 minutes from Fort Worth) Where some family still lives.

7. I am a new student at Dallas Theological Seminary getting ready to study my creator, the author of my whole story from the very beginning. So, in many ways I have come...full circle.
