Hello all:

The last days I’ve spent trying to figure some things out. I’m currently working my long week (four days in a row), and its now my Friday and I look forward to four days off….

I’ve had some time to sit at the computer. but I haven’t had much to write. I’ve just been doing a lot of web surfing when I’ve been sitting at the computer.

I’m not sure where I should be going with my life. I’ve prayed some, and I’ve asked others for their prayers as well. I’m impatient. I want to have a clear focus. I have the opportunity to take classes for free at Northwest College of the Bible, and I might do that. However, I don’t really feel like being a preacher is the calling I’ve received. There is nothing that is really pulling me in that direction, at all.

My wife and I talked about chaplancy last night. I’ve got a lot of experience and inroads in law enforcement and public safety, and that path might be open. I’ve been planning on finishing up my bachlors degree in Public Safety and Human Justice through Southern Chrisitan University, and their program is designed for that path, among other things.

Then there is the teaching route. I always have had the interest in teaching at the college level. Maybe history, maybe criminal justice. I don’t know.

I guess I don’t need to be in a big hurry. My wife can’t start her certificate program until the Spring Term, so she probably won’t have a job until the fall of next year. I have a lot of time to think, prepare, and be led between now and then.
