Tracing our adventure - 4

For the last couple of years, I have been batting around the idea of going to seminary. As we looked and prayed about whether to move or not, this came into the decision making process as well. Would this help? Maybe by moving it would give us more options, and more help by being around family as we tried to make that happen?

I have felt that this dream? ambition? calling? has been kind of flailing...with me not really taking action on it, but not letting it go either.

Was this an opportunity to kick me in the pants and get moving on it?

Meanwhile...

Kristen, who was both frustrated with the nursing program and stressed out from the class she was taking went out to breakfast with a friend and did a complete information / emotion dump and ended up discussing other opportunities. All of a sudden, Kristen began to wonder if the reason that she hadn't made it into the nursing program was because she wasn't supposed to go into it at all. She had other things that she wanted to do and class was a burden, a stress that she could relieve herself of!

She came home excited about doing a ministry project and maybe going into a business with her friend. yes, she would finish the class...but no more stressing over grades! She just had to convince me.

She said to herself and to her friend, "I have to deliver this the right way to Jason or he will say no."

Apparently that didn't work...cause the first word out of my mouth was "No."
