Well, I should be back to a more regular blogging schedule now that the craziness of traveling and the craziness of studying for/taking the national speech-language pathology exam and the craziness of getting settled into my medical practicum are all behind me.
I think “a more regular blogging schedule” hopefully means a few posts a week . . . we shall see. I have a lot of thoughts going through my head as I embark on my last semester in school.
Right now, I’m enjoying the thought of Jesus Christ as the bright morning star (Rev 22:16). As my pastor described last night, that star is the one that shines the brightest just before darkness turns to dawn – the herald that night is ending and glorious day is about to break.
It’s a beautiful and fitting picture of our Savior.
Made for Eternity 
I leave for school in the dark each day, and on clear days, when I go out to my car I love taking a minute to look up at the sky. I check out the moon, noting what phase it’s in and where it is, just to get my bearings. Always in the east, just over the top of some big trees, I can see Venus, which has also been called the morning star. It’s always there, constant. It’s a reminder of the true Bright and Morning Star. I find great peace resting in the beautiful reminder of the Savior who is the same today, tomorrow, forever. Daylight comes quickly and Venus fades from mortal sight and from my thoughts. But Jesus is a constant, regardless of weather, circumstances, success or failure.
