The Road No Longer Broken

At the request of a few friends, I am returning to the blog world. I didn't realize how long I had been away. This semester has completely consumed me. Between class and homework, leadership positions on campus, maintaining friendships, and enjoying my boyfriend--I've been spread fairly thin. Positively spread thin, though. I am so blessed by the joy of the things God is trusting me with. Today I realized that God is trusting me with small things now so that He can trust me with greater things later (not that what I'm doing now is not great).
I know that my calling is middle school students, there is no doubt in my mind about that. Right now, I'm a junior English/Secondary Ed. major with hopes of teaching middle school and I work with the most BALLER (this word means stellar, phenomenal, etc.) middle school ministry in the world--Ignite--through NewSpring Church as a small group leader. Some may call me crazy...I just think I'm out of my mind for Jesus. I LOVE middle schoolers.
Also, God has blessed me with a BALLER relationship with an amazing man of God--I like to call him "God's Will." This relationship has been so beneficial to my walk with God. Before Will, I struggled with realizing my worth in a world the demoralized women. Now, I feel blessed to be a woman. He is constantly challenging me and encouraging me. I'm so sure that God has entrusted me with this relationship because He is preparing me for even more in the future.
These things may seem small, but I know that God has me where I am right now for a reason. I'm so excited to see where the next turn leads on this road...that is no longer broken!
