Uncertainties and Certainties... (Adam is GRADUATING!)

Adam graduates from Boyce College here at Southern Baptist Theol. Seminary with a Bachelor's Degree NEXT FRIDAY!! I am so happy for him and it is great for him to be that much closer to his goal!

As far as school, Adam has made the decision to get his Master's online through Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary. Before, he was going to continue on at Southern Seminary for his Master's but after much thought, and consideration, we have decided this is best. As most of you know, he has been in 'ministry' school for 5 years now and we are ready to be open to wherever the Lord leads. We have been 'tied' down to areas for the last 5 years so we knew for the sake of that and to make our schedules a little more flexible, we decided this is best. The flexibility of an online program sounds very good to us right now! He also found out that he will get 30 hours credit that will go towards his Master's degree. This is because of his really good GPA and previous Seminary and Bible college degrees! So that was wonderful news!

As for a job.. Adam took a job with the U.S. Census Bureau. He started it this week. He did quit Frito Lay because they had cut his hours back so much so he was glad to find something else that gave him a lot more hours and even better money. The bad part is.... it is only temporary. It goes for about 8 weeks and then it will be over. So right now, he is looking for something else to do after this is over. He is putting his resume out for ministry jobs and well as others.. So pray that he will be able to find something else!

As for our house: We are now working on getting our house ready to sell. We are hoping and praying that we can sell it by owner or only have to pay a smaller commission. We know that we will lose money on this house.. it is just a matter of how much... It is in HIS hands!!

As for our mission trip... We Are So Blessed! Our response has been amazing!! We are so grateful and now we just have to prepare our selves to go. We got a link to a blog that shows updates of Mission teams that are working with the Tonga people now and it really excites me to work with these people. It HUMBLES me!!

So as far as this Summer, we have got a lot going.. a lot of uncertainties of what our future holds in all of these areas. We have stressed time and time again but this is my comfort and the verse that has stuck in my mind time and time again and esp. this week.........

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all thy ways, acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths. Prov. 3:5-6.
