Blogging as a Study Break
“And my God will supply all your needs according
to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:19
We moved to Colorado six short weeks ago expecting to study and prepare for a lifestyle and career in healthcare. Logical reasoning would suppose that this would include a functional understanding of scientific information and its medical implications. The reality of our own experience, though, is that in these past few weeks we have learned a far greater amount about the incredible, infinite God we serve than about the limited medical knowledge of men. It proves to be quite an anomaly that we came to learn medicine and are instead learning more and more about our Heavenly Father. Once again, the plans of God are far greater than anything we could have imagined and we are so excited to see God mold and shape us into more precise tools for His Kingdom. God’s sole desire is not necessarily to see us finish school in four years. He desires that we bring Him the maximum honor and glory through each and every step of the way.
Both Hannah and I have been stretched far beyond our comforts but we continually see God meet our needs in both subtle and extravagant ways. He has been so good to provide like-minded fellow students and their spouses as well as opportunity for rich fellowship with believers. We have enjoyed sharing meals with some of these close friends as well as embarking on adventures in the Rocky Mountains nearby. Our most recent excursion culminated at about 13,000 ft. near a peak just outside of Winterpark, CO. Just this morning Hannah and I visited Hillside Community Church and were greeted heartily from more people than we could count. We are excited to go again next week and feel that it could quite possibly become our church home here in CO. The list could go on and on, but needless to say, praise be to God for His abundant provision.
We are slowly adjusting to the new environment here in CO. We can pretty much plan on rain sometime each afternoon which keeps everything green and the weather pleasant. Hannah starts school tomorrow (Monday) and, Lord-willing, work sometime in the next week or so. Hannah continues to be a tremendous blessing and support and I am quickly becoming convinced that she will deserve a degree of her own for her incredible work when all is said and done. School for me continues to move right along and I look forward to wrapping up this block of molecular biology in the next week and move in to the body systems. It is so refreshing to be studying things that trigger my interests.
We are absolutely loving this new season of life in Colorado and falling in love with each other as well as our Savior more and more each day!!!
