Well.... I think I have quite a few good reasons as to why I haven't posted anything for the past few weeks. I had spent one week in Melbourne (for Planetshakers) and Renmark, a week of relaxing, another week at Influencers SHOUT Youth Conference and now I'm here. With lots of watching dvds and spending copious amounts of time chatting to friends online and deep thinking. Deep thinking about what?
Since being in Melbourne, I have discovered that perhaps Bachelor of Arts in Youth Work at Tabor is not what I feel happy about doing. I already spent one whole year doing that sort of thing... you know that studying-writingnotesinlectures-assignments-essays-wordcounts-grades thing. It all gets a bit much after a while. Kind of overwhelming. And I want to take some time off to figure out what I want to do. Well it seems God has already done that for me. Not long after making this decision, God had put on my heart to do this particular internship at a church, 800km away from where I live. And it's not as if God is forcing me to do this either, I feel (and have felt, in past years) very passionate about it. I can imagine myself doing it. I have been very reluctant to tell anyone of this, but I guess now that I have realised that this is truly what I want to do, I feel a bit more free to tell my friends about it. But there's just so much to consider in this choice... such as where am I going to live, how am I going to accumulate the money for the course and to live there, how am I going to get my application done, am I even going to get in at all, am I good enough?
But all I really want right now is prayer &/or encouragement. In coming time I will need to ask for help considering moving out of home and interstate, possibly even financial help and also help in settling into the new city (if all goes well). I'm feeling a bit nervous about it all.
Also... 28 days to go, until my commitment of singleness concludes. :)
