When I graduated in 2009 from grad school, I thought that I was finally done writing papers and taking classes. That has all changed this summer. I have taken 2 more graduate classes, but they were theology classes, nothing to do with nursing, medicine, etc…Talk about being out of my comfort zone-YIKES!
I am currently writing my consecration paper. This is basically a paper where I explain my call to missions, my character, my thoughts on Covenant Theology, thoughts on Evangelism, etc…This is a step in the process for me in becoming a long-term missionary with the Evangelical Covenant Church. I am nervous for sure about writing this paper, but not necessarily because of the content, more of how I portray the content. I don’t just want to answer the questions, but I want to give a picture of who I am in Christ when answering them. The verse that keeps coming back to me as I write is:
Psalm 19:14
“May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer”
Please pray for me as I write this paper. That I may write was is pleasing to my Lord.
