Helloooo!

I know, I know...it has been entirely too long since my last update. It seems that I say that everytime I write now.
Let's see, this week is finals at MSU. I am so ready to be finished with my Junior year of college. Starting today (Tuesday) I have an exam a day. So I'll be completely finished Friday. YAY!
In exactly 30 days I will be boarding a plane in Memphis, connecting in Atlanta, then landing in Orlando, Florida. Can I say that I am so very, very excited!? Because, I am! No, I do not know the nit picky details of what I'll be doing. All I know is that I'll be working at Give Kids the World (www.gktw.org) doing who knows what. I might be working with families, I might be a lifeguard, I might be working in the ice cream parlor, I do know that whatever I do, God's love will be shown through my life. My prayer is that whatever He has planned for me to do this summer, He will receive all the glory! I am going to try and do better about updating this summer. I just ask that you continue to pray for me, my team, and the people we'll be encountering in Florida.
Also, I think I have already mentioned this, but I'll say it again. I am a wife and soon to be mother! Ok, I should probably explain. I am a family group leader at BSU, which means I have a male partner, my "husband" and in August we will have about 15 or so new transfer students in our group, "my kids". I am really looking forward to that. My "husband" and I have been getting to know each other better and I think it will work out wonderfully. We will be going through 1 Corinthians, suuuuch a good book!
Next semester is going to B-U-S-Y! I'm taking 18 hours of classes, doing family group, which will take up a good amount of time, and also going to be leading the Acts Too drama team. It's going to be hectic, but I'm certain I can make it. Moma will have to be on her toes with some good pep talks! :) I love her.
I love doing drama. At ICC, it was a blast and it was absolutely awesome. It is such a great ministry. The audience can laugh at one moment, then be hit with something serious the next. The skits are hilarious and some of them are convicting. I know that no matter how many times I see one of them done, I always get chills. This year of drama, we only went out twice. Participation wasn't the greatest either. So hopefully, with the Henley side of me, I can get some people recruited into the drama team and we can practice and be ready to go at a moment's notice.
I think that's about it. Almost done with school, ready for the summer! Right now, I'm just enjoying the beautiful weather God has given us today. He is good!
Thanks for reading! Love you.

Even when you feel like you don't measure up to much in this life. Know that you are a treasure in the arms of Christ.
