With 2010 behind me and 2011 underway, I can't help but grasp at significance of a year. As someone who would rather set goals than make resolutions, I consider time valuable and worth redeeming regardless of the calendar month. Even with that belief in hand, I still can't help but marvel at all that can be accomplished in a year. Granted, the information I have to measure the significance of year is subjective, trivial, swayed by emotion and lacks a large amount of insight, however, sometimes annual milestones surface that help us marvel at the graciousness of the Lord.
One year ago today I woke up, ate a nervous breakfast and started the incredibly defining journey of student teaching. Today, I woke up, gathered my lesson plans and taught without anxiety for the first time since I was first introduced as "Miss. Nolte" 365 days ago. God is so faithful and He does accomplish what He intends to do.
When I am well rested enough to realize how far the Lord has carried me in one short year, I have hope that all of the unforseen things God desires to accomplish in my life are good, even when they don't feel like it.
