Reaching The Summit!


Well dear friends, to those of you who have hung in with me even though I have only rewarded you with long periods of silence...I did it! I've finished a whole year of university! I can hardly believe ti! All I can say is that Jesus did it all the way! I could never, ever, under my own power, have accomplished what I've accomplished over this unbelievably difficult year! I'm still waiting on the results of my final exams but I think that for the most part, I've done very well. Again, thank goodness God is all knowing because when it came to my exams, I sure wasn't. However, He worked in some very mysterious ways this week, helping me to focus primarily on the very things that ended up on the exams. In my Renaissance Poetry and Prose exam, out of 7 long essay questions, we had to choose 4 to write on and there were exactly 4 that I was totally prepared to write about. That's pretty incredible considering we studied about 80 poems, (some very long), a half dozen essays and Pilgrim's Progress. The odds of me studying the exact 4 poems I would need for the exam....pretty incredible. Anyhow, other things like that happened over the week and I had amazing recall, something that I usually really struggle with in exams. I usually freeze up and draw a complete blank when I turn over the exam.

So, now the summer! I'm so excited to spend some quality time with my darling boy. He's really been a trooper as well but he has certainly missed his Mommy. We're going to spend lots of time sitting at the beach and playing in the pool.

I hope to be much more active in blog world, probably just about the time you all will wind down for the summer and take vacations. Oh well...

Love Becky

Unworthy...and yet...



Unworthy

i
stood at the foot
of the cross
and looked up
at Him
and He
looked down
at me
and droplets
of His blood
splashed
at my feet
and my tears
fell
and mingled
and i knew
i
was not worthy
to stand here
and He said
My blood
your tears
mix
and you are cleansed
and you are loved
and you are forgiven
and you are Mine
i fell
forward
and kissed His feet
i felt
true love
and i knew
oh
i knew
it was for me
for me
for me
He died
and i cried
because
i
was not
worthy

Almost done!!

To my dear and faithful friends who continue to check here to see how I'm doing...I'm doing okay. Still in the center of the storm but I'm holding on...actually I'm doing better than that. I'm doing awesome in school and I think I'm maintaining my job as 'Mommy' quite well. Praise God because it is only through His amazing love that I am still standing! I have finals in 2 weeks and then I'm done for the summer. I promise to catch you up on all that's happened. For now, something had to give if I was going to ever get to bed at nights after my homework was done and so I had to sacrifice my blog. But only for now! I'll be back (she said with an 'Arnold Schwartzenegger accent!) My love to you all. Please pray as I head into final exams the week of the 16th to the 21st. Next Tuesday, Kyle turns 2! I can hardly believe it's been 2 years since I've had a real nights sleep! My love to you all.

Becky
