It kind of hit me today that I only have one more semester left before finishing this whole seminary thing and I can't believe how fast the last two and a half years have flown by. This also reminded me of how much work towards ordination I need to complete in the next few weeks. I have to fill out the necessary paperwork for three bureaucracies so I can get interviews for them all. And it has to be done in a certain sequence so that it all fits together nicely. Hopefully, by the end of July it will all be done and I will just be waiting for orders of where to start the next phase of my military career.
I am also excited about the future chapter and that makes the necessary pain of all this work easier to bear. I can't wait to get it all done and then get out there as a full Chaplain and see fruits of the last few years of work and lack of income. It is also going to be nice as I get a four day weekend each week because I am only in class Monday-Wednesday next semester. Don't know how I got that lucky, but I won't complain too much. What is even more exciting is that I won't have an internship next semester, so I might actually have a lot of free time to work on this stuff and also to get out and see some of the more out of the way places of NC and also to go visit friends in neighboring states.
