In the beginning...
That phrase is used a lot in the Bible. And now it's sort of my theme for this CSBS. I was reading my Bible this morning and I wasn't really paying attention to where I was reading so my Bible was just open to Genesis 1. Then that first verse that almost everyone knows caught my eye. In the beginning... Beginning is what really stood out to me. I feel like this will be the beginning of the best chapter of my life. I was also really scared. Scared that I wasn't actually supposed to be here. Scared that I wouldn't actually understand anything that we learn. Scared that I would fail at this. We were talking about our feelings about the upcoming months and I shared this with my group, which also happened to be two people from my DTS, Kate and Derek. They were really good at encouraging me, and then I had some time to pray about it. God said to relax. And so relax is what I'll do. I'll let God carry me all the way through the next 9 months and see what happens.
