"At Least We Made It This Far"

this time last year i couldn't wait to leave school, but now i wish it had never ended. i had no idea what i wanted to do, film school? Uni? Gap year?...Christchurch? ha. i have ended up at uni this year doing a BA in public policy and international relations but who knows I'm always changing my mind about what to study. although its been one of the hardest years of life, its also been one of the best! its changed me for the better, its changed my view of the world and of whats really important and my reliance on God has gone to another level. God has revived my dreams and i can see that what i am working towards is truly from God just because its so out there and that it almost seems impossible that Sam Forty from Upper Hutt will one day become Prime Minister of New Zealand. but hey that's what God does, he takes the averageness that is me and makes it great. he took David the little ginger Kid Shepard and turned him into a warrior and one of the greatest kings in history, but like David I'm going to have to kill some lions and bears in the back Fields to turn me into the man for the Job. its going to be a log journey and a hard one but in the end the reward is worth the price. as there is nothing better than living the life God has called you too, anything else is mediocre.

p.s. i take back what i said at the start about wishing I was back at school, school was fun but now its over ever day brings me closer to the day when then dream comes to pass. so why would i want to leave where God has placed me now and turn back to the old and familiar.
