I have been so busy lately I haven't had any time to write a post. Hopefully when I finish up this class in 2 weeks I will be able to catch up on some posts!! I am doing really well in this class, though. So far I have had better grades in my Pediatrics class than I have had in any other nursing class!! (That really surprises me, since this is supposed to be one of the hardest classes.) I'm really praying I keep an A in the class.
I have been listening to a lot of praise and worship music while I'm studying, and I've been humming this modern hymn all day. I just love the words. It really expresses what God has been working in my heart the past few weeks:
In my heart there is a stirring
One that did not start with me
A love to worship my Creator
To show His love for all to see
I will worship
I will honor
I will exalt the Lord above
All my days
I’ll sing the praises
Of His great redeeming love
In my heart there is a treason
One that poisons all my love
Take my heart and consecrate it
Wash it in Your cleansing blood
Tie me to the Rock unchanging
Tie me to His wondrous Cross
I’ll fix my eyes upon the Savior
All other things I count as loss
Tie me to the Rock unchanging
And His great redeeming love

Verse of the Day
Proverbs 19:21
Many are the plans of in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.
Favorite Quotes
“I suppose one of the reasons I have kept journals and diaries is the desire to gather up the fragements that remain, that nothing be lost.”
~Elisabeth Elliot, Passion and Purity (one of the best books I have ever read!!)
Isaiah 42:16--And I will lead the blind in a way that they do not know, in paths that they have not known I will guide them. I will turn the darkness before them into light, the rough places into level ground. These are the things I do, and I do not forsake them.
To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly be broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one ... lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket ... it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.
~C.S. Lewis

Hello there, this is my first visit to your blog. I really like the way your blog is put together. In case you're wondering, I came across your blog through YLCF. Feel welcome to drop by my blog.
I LOVE the songs you suggest :) I have listened to The Shelly Moore band Jesus I am resting one countless times :)
And now i have just found this one on youtube - love :)
Thanks!
I've never heard that song...
That's so neat that you're doing well in peds! Wouldn't surprise me if it's your gifting.
Katrina--I didn't look on youtube because I figured they didn't have it. I'm glad you found it!! By the way, I see from your blog that you are studying to be a midwife. Good for you!! I (unexpectedly!) loved my OB class!! Since then it's become is a far-off dream of mine to become a midwife...Not for at least 5 years though! I don't have any desire to study any more for a lonnng while after I finally graduate in a few months!! When will you finish, and how are you being trained?
Jen, I would love to do peds when I finish. That's actually what I've always wanted to do. :) I've been having so much fun this semester!!
