New Decisions
Everything is going well, but I haven't had time to update this. It is hard enough to keep my private journal updated!  Yesterday I finished one of my projects early in class so I scooped up my journal and went to Starbucks to catch up in it and also read from Passion & Purity. - Reading from P&P stirred my heart as it brought back vivid remembrences of the struggles, confusion, and heartache during our long wait. It also helped to renew my desire not to take anything for granted now, and to appreciate God's mercy and faithfulness.
Something I would appreciate prayer for is figuring out whether or not I would continue attending college if we get married. The reason we are trying to think through it now is because in another month I'll be registering for my spring semester. However, if I were to stop school once married I think I would want to stop now. It is hard to decide because I really want to make sure I have plenty of time to give my home and husband my full attention, and yet at the same time I would like to complete my degree in interior design. If I went part time it would take me 2.5 more years to finish. So anyway, if ya'll think of it if you could pray for God's wisdom and guidance in that area.
Tonight we are going on a date night. Seth has been very thoughtful in planning out our times together...I appreciate his servant leadership!
