I have officially graduated from SBS and have read and studied through the bible five times through! This school has been the most challenging experience I've ever had in my life but also has been the most valuable time I've ever invested nine months into. My eyes have been opened to a God who's love is the same yesterday, today and forever. I have seen that just as God was faithful to Abraham, King David, Isaiah, the apostle Paul, he is equally worthy to be trusted in our lives today. From Genesis to Revelation, the beginning and the prophesied end to humanity, God's heart has always been about relationship. He extends his love to mankind because he wants us to experience the fullness of what it means to be alive. The bible has given me a foundation to set my life on and created a hunger in me to seek truth and participate in the restoration God is doing in the world and in people's hearts. This school is not an end for me but a beginning. I am excited/unsure/challenged by how this is going to translate into my re-entry to Canada but I'm sitting here on my last night in Taiwan hopeful and expectant for how God wants to use me in the future.
Thanks so much for your prayers and support. I give all the glory to God for this achievement, I would have never been able to finish this school without his strength.
Can't wait to see you all in a couple days!
