| Church is alive and active and the teaching spurred several of my journal entries | Church is still alive and active; Spanish worship still cuts to my core with the lyrics |
| The Lord was speaking loud and clearly in my life through my small group, creation, and His Word. | I find myself listening more to my devotional by Oswald Chambers than I do digging straight into Scripture. Good thing our small group is doing an inductive bible study over Matthew! |
| I cried out to the Lord for I felt my time with Him was getting pushed aside because business. | I still struggle with business and balancing it ALL. I don’t know if we are supposed to balance it ALL, but I do know that time with Him is a priority. |
| I wrote a lot about my family and relationships; I analyzed, thought about my friendships, and prayed those would match to Christ. | I see growth in my family and relationships; I see growth on my part and others; I praise God for relationships that keep me anchored to Christ. |
So, my question is does process = progress? I like to think so, but I know that we do have seasons of digressions, but if we are constantly choosing Christ first, then I hope I am always progressing towards Him. This is becoming a theme in my life and for this semester at hand. STAY IN THE PROCESS...DON'T RUN FROM THE PROCESS. Sometimes the process is really hard and requires a lot from us. Sometimes the process changes everything we know to be true around us. Sometimes the process is just to stay the course. Whatever your process is at the moment, stick with it!
