I finished my first semester at seminary - what a blessing to be done! You know the ridiculous thing? Upon being done I picked up a book I hadn't had the chance to finish during the semester (Knowing God by J.I. Packer) which just amuses me because it's a real heady book. I can't escape it - no matter how "done" I'll get with school work I'll never be done learning.
And you know what? The most relevant things I've learned have come outside the classroom. They've come in seeing God working in the lives of friends around me. Of getting to see how God's used my hurt, pain and experience to teach me important lessons about him and then use that to love others better. Basically, it's come from seeing God at work.
I hope and pray that will never ends because it delights my heart to see God on the move, to see him working in and through people's lives and to have the privilege to be a part of it. May God never cease to amaze me or show me how wonderfully above and beyond my imagination and comprehension he is.
