blessings.

As I sit and write this blog, I have tears in my eyes as I think about all the ways the Lord has blessed my life. He has lavished me with so many wonderful opportunities. He has given me an amazing family, amazing friends, an amazing college to attend, amazing roommates, hallmates, classmates and professors. Just this week the Lord blessed me again. He blessed me with an amazing opportunity for this upcoming summer. I am going to be one of the 2008 Summer interns for the Saint Paul Saints minor league baseball team. I will be working almost all of the games and assisting with promotions, customer service, fan interaction, activities etc… I am excited, and thrilled for this opportunity but also scared out of my mind.

Thank you Lord that you know all things. Thank you for bearing with me when I question this crazy thing called life. Thank you for allowing this 21 year old girl to dream. Thank you for knowing me better than I know myself. Thank you Father for the promises you have promised in your word. Thank you that you are never early and never late. Thank you for allowing things to happen in YOUR time and blessing this psychotic, junior in college who is entrusting you with her future. I love you Lord and can’t wait to see the amazing things you are going to be doing in my life!

Your daughter, Micaela

the start of something new.

I’ve never been very good at this “blogging” thing, but I have been inspired by Ms. Sara Cornells and thought that maybe I should give it a try once again.

I can’t believe that it is already the middle of April! Seriously, where does the time go? I feel like I was just moving into the dorms this year.

Plans for the summer are still not finalized. For those of you who don’t know, I have applied for about 10 different internships for this summer and haven’t heard anything yet. Some are in the Twin Cities some are out of state. Normally I would be stressing out that I haven’t heard anything yet but I am trusting that the Lord will provide and He will hand over the keys when I need them. So many times I have worried myself sick over different decisions and upcoming events and I am done doing that. I am surrending my timing over to His. I am handing Him the keys to my life and saying, “Lord, I don’t know where you are going to take me or what I am going to be doing but I trust you with my life and I am excited for the journey.” It’s kind of cool to think of the things that are ahead. I am a 21 years old and have my whole life ahead of me. I am loving my major and the many opportunities that I have been given since coming to Northwestern College.

Well, I guess that is all for now. Maybe I will be better at this blogging thing this time around.

Praying you all are experiencing the many joys and blessings from the Lord this day.

On this crazy journey called life,

Micaela
