Ever Faithful

I love KCCF Bible studies. I love KCCF. I missed Friday fellowship. Due to various reasons, I hadn't attended Friday fellowship since the Friday before our retreat in February. So when I finally went back last night with a joyful heart and expectant soul, I was given a delicious taste of true fellowship once again.

The topic was God's faithfulness. I try to remember God's faithfulness to me by sitting down and listing all the blessings I could think of. One week ago, I tried to do just that--but found it extremely difficult. For every one good thing I could think of, many other negative things would crowd my mind. But having to sit down last night and think of all the ways God was faithful to me throughout my life, and listening to my brothers and sisters share, I was once again reminded that our feeble minds can limit God's work in our lives.

This year has been full of ups and downs. Through it all though, I have come to see that God is truly ever faithful. Even before He closes the doors on things in life, he opens up many more possibilities. For example, I had always intended to write an undergraduate thesis. There were so many questions I wanted to answer, I loved doing research and writing labs, it seemed as though a thesis would be the only way to quench my thirst for psychology. Yet throughout this year, God has been refining my passion--to love others with the love He gives me. After much reflection, I have decided not to write a thesis, but devote my time to other things. I'm so excited to see what God will place on my plate for next year. After all, my newest philosophy on my Queen's education is this: A Queen's education (or any liberal arts education) allows me to discover and refine my passion, and to equip me with the skills and knowledge to pursue that passion.

I'm really excited for what's up ahead!
