Life Narrowing

Heyo all-

So the start of school is coming up quickly. This fact makes me wonderfully excited and NERVOUS.

Do not get me wrong, i LOVE nursing.

Still it is slightly scary. Or alot. I mean I am taking care of precious, God-created, human lives, yet I am only human. THE NERVES.

And this is making me feel better. Because it reminds me that while it feels like I am narrowing my life to one thing, I don't have to. So much is placed on what job you have or are working towards, but as a person I want to be more that what I made money doing.

I want to be how I glorified God.

Yup, great thought, now how do I practically do that. I only have some shadow/echo idea of what that means, let alone how I am to apply it.

I think it means being in God's word enough that I am thinking of Him as much or more as I think of school. There are probably many other things too, but I really do want to start with that.

Thus I embrace my Christian identity and I want to remember to study Christ as much and hopefully more than (strictly speaking) school.
