Update

I have so much to blog and update you on but I will just give you a short glimpse until I am home tonight and can add pictures.

I finished my semester on December 23rd following a snowy weekend here in NJ. Since my time off I have had a lot of time to just relax and reevaluate things. It is amazing how consuming nursing school is. It consumes ever waking second, unfortunately to the detriment of many other things. This few weeks I am trying to reevaluate how I can do well in nursing school and not lose sight of the other things that are important in my life. Maybe with a bit of balance I will do better in school.

Today in church we sang a song that really hits home for me. It talks about a thousand times that I fail and yet Gods mercy remains. Even as I stumble I find myself in his Grace. What a powerful thought. Does this mean I can continue to willingly stumble??? No, but it does wipe away the guilt and opens up the empowerment to move forward and daily reevaluate my priorities and choices.

Here is the song on you tube and below is the lyrics:





From the inside out:
A thousand times I've failed
Still your mercy remains
And should I stumble again
Still I'm caught in your grace

Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
In my heart, in my soul, Lord I give you control
Consume me from the inside out Lord
Let justice and praise become my embrace
To love You from the inside out

Your will above all else, my purpose remains
The art of losing myself in bringing you praise

Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
In my heart, in my soul, Lord I give you control
Consume me from the inside out Lord
Let justice and praise become my embrace
To love You from the inside out

Chorus 2x
Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart is to bring You praise
From the inside out Lord, my soul cries out
