So….
It has been a while since I have talked much about meeting with my mentor. I have to admit that I was in desperate need of meeting with Lynette these past couple of weeks, but I am not so sure I was ready to receive what I’ve been getting from those meetings. haha!
As this time of year typically wears and tears on you physically and emotionally, it has been a battle to stay rooted in God’s promises and His Word. Unlike most valley moments like this one I have been CLINGING to God’s truth and trying to comprehend his LOVE. There have been several things that have been bringing me to a place of frustration…almost to the point that I lose focus on WHAT and WHY I am at CSU. So I began to jot down questions, frustrations and obstacles that had been burdening my heart.
Before I got the chance to meet with Lynette though I went up to the SC Baptist Convention in Columbia to work the CSU Booth. The best part about that trip was that I got to spend about an hour with another mentor of mine, Mrs. Becky, from Anderson University. About a year ago is when she challenged me to write out a job description for Women’s Ministry and Creative Arts which I did and now am currently doing. As soon as I walked up to her she asked how I was doing and I just took a deep breathe and sighed. She immediately invited me to sit down and talk about it with her. The two things that encouraged me the most (of course a lot of things encouraged me…) were her telling me to continue to fix my eyes on Christ…focus on Jesus!, and to make a list of things that I’ve seen God working in and dwell on those.
Then I returned and had a meeting with Lynette. She gently beat me up though. As much as I want to be more like Christ and become the woman of God he has called me to be…I don’t like this part! haha! Its a good thing, but tough all the while. 
So, here I am working on that list of things that I’ve witnessed God using me to do…the list is coming soon!
