It is the end of the semester--grading, trying to finish with closure, wrapping everything up and looking forward to commencement. This year commencement will hold special meaning for me as I receive an MA in the midst of the festivities! I'm grateful for all God has done. That degree will mean much more to me than a piece of paper with my name and some captial letters. It will represent hours of grace and strength. It will represent God's working in me and changing me as I've learned more about His Word and interacted with my classmates.
I was reminded recently that life is a journey; though it has accomplishments along the way and celebrations of completion our life's journey continues on. I intend to celebrate in 2 weeks, but more importantly I will continue to walk ahead. This accomplishment will indeed be noticed, but in the midst of it I don't want to miss the big picture. I don't want to miss the journey.
So keep your eyes open as you travel. You are on a journey, and you never know the sights you may see.
