I am half way through law school!!!! Praise Him! I can only give God the praise for all that has happened since I first drove to Bloomington, Indiana in my Honda Civic thinking that this was only about law school. Little did I know, God was calling me back home both spiritually and literally. I am originally from Indiana but my family moved when I was 12 years old. I attended middle school in Chicago and high-school in Philadelphia. My mother moved back to Indiana a few years ago after living in Philly for 10 years. IU was not at the top of my list for schools. I loved D.C. and was very reluctant to leave the east coast for the corn fields of the midwest. I received a scholarship to IU Maurer School of Law and there I was. My car packed and road tripping back to my roots. To say I had a hard time adjusting is an understatement and does not do my agony quite the justice that it deserves. Although we are from IN, we came back only to visit family which was once a year. I was not happy about leaving but I had always wanted to go to law school and argue the convictions that I felt so strongly.
God called me back spiritually when I came to law school, because for once in my life I was alone and felt like I did not know if I could make it through. I spent so much quiet time studying that I could for hear God's voice for once because I had no choice. I become closer with God through my time in Bloomington. I did not have as many distractions as I had in D.C.. where I partied all the time and kept busy with grad school and work. It wasn't until recently, that I started realizing what God had been doing all along. We will get more into this later but for now, I will leave you with this. What God starts he will complete. He that began a good work in us will complete it until his return. God plants the seeds and the holy spirit waters it as we yield to it. God Bless!
