I tell you what, if I never see Blount county Courthouse ever again, it will be too soon. I had to get up at 5:30 this morning to wait in line for TWO hours. The I went inside and waited for three more hours, spent twenty-eight dollars, and all I got was a little piece of paper with my picture and the words "License only valid for Thirty Days". I honestly don't think it was really worth my time for that. But, ya gotta do what ya gotta do, I quess. I miss Georgia, things were so much easier, it seems to be that way to me anyway. I miss all my friends, and my church. All the people I know and Love, I had to leave behind. For good reason though, to pursue an education, a career, and a dream that I have had for so long now. It almost seems unreal to me at times that the years of play and childhood are behind me, and I am now forced to grow up and make a stand in the world; for myself and for the Lord. Before I left I asked God if this was what I needed to be doing with my life, and I felt good about it. It has not been an easy path to trod, but God has been with me all the way. At times I tried to let my own logic and thinking get in the way of his hands, but he has shown me and corrected me through his word and by the Holy Ghost. All these years I've heard my, parents, grandparents, and church family tell me that God was all that I needed and he would provide even in the darkest of conditions; I may not always understand why I go through the trials I do, I just know that It WILL be worth it after all. By and by I will understand it, and join in the refrain, "Thank God, I made it". "
Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit saith the Lord..."
