Well friends...in case you hadn't heard - I survived Greek School at Columbia.
I made it through 40 days and 40 nights of learning another ancient language.
And I came out on top.
Saturday Morning Study Session |
I've never been one too overly concerned with grades, but when you work really hard on something, it is kind of nice to have something to show for it.
(Besides the Lisa Frank "You did it" stickers on my quizzes from my TA...)
Many thanks to all of you who kept me in your prayers as I went along the journey. I am very grateful for the kind notes, the prayers said, the phone calls, and the texts that helped me remember that while yes, learning Greek is indeed important, so was remembering I'm a beloved child of God, despite if I can pronounce/translate/parse the following phrase:
χαιρετε εν κυριω παντοτε παλιν ερω χαιρετε (Philippians 4:4).
(which I can indeed pronounce/translate/parse.)
On completing Greek School, I was able to go home for a few weeks to spend time with family and for my best friend's wedding - stay tuned for a picture post to come!
Fall semester has started and I came back and hit the ground running - would you expect anything else? I do plan on continuing to blog as I continue on this journey of discernment. I pray you will follow along in my musings and observations, "Concerning the Call".
χάρις ὑμῖν καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν καὶ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.
(Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.)
