New Chapter

My life has been filled with chapters, some good and some bad.  I have seen miracles happen in the form of healings in my own body and in the bodies of those I love.  I have also seen tragedies like my son who had seizures and is now a victim of autism, and my beloved mom passing away 2 years ago.  Chapters of our lives shape who we are, both the good and the bad ones.

This new chapter in my life is exciting, and maybe a little bit scary.  I am a student again!  I'm taking a writing class, actually finishing one that I started years ago.  It feels good to finish something I started, because I hate leaving things unfinished.  I don't know if God has it in His plans for me to get published, to make any money, to write for His glory or just finish the class and get my diploma/certificate.  Whatever happens, I will keep this Bible verse in mind as I do my class and see what happens:   Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for man. Colossians 3:23
