So I have learned a lot about myself over the last several years. It's funny to think that someone can grow so much within such a relatively short amount of time. I have learned that I LOVE teacher juice (aka talking with other teachers or future teachers about teacher things... which wouldn't make any sense to non-teachers)... I have also learned that I like people and I have been so incredibly blessed by all of the friendships that I have formed over the past few years, but I also love spending time with ME, I am an introvert in that I am "filled back up" by being by myself....I have also being reconfirmed that I love details (hence the over-obsession with Post-it notes, so I don't forget about the details in my life). One of those details that has made me the most anxious about this coming summer has been the issue of money. But God is faithful and cares about details... my Alive group studied Psalm 139 last week... How much the psalmist talks about how God cares about every little detail about me... it astounds me. But back to the detail that God reaffirmed to me this week. Praise God, I received $400 in the mail through the blessings of close friends and family over the past week. I know that is just a fraction of what is required for this summer, but to me it was God saying, "Monica, I have called you the DR this summer... I will take care of you.. trust me". And so I am thankful for the blessings of family and friends and I am also thankful that even though God doesn't need Post-its, He is still the God of small things.
In His Love,
Monica
