This past week was the first week of classes for my last semester. It was one of the longest weeks of Taylor for me. I forgot a little what it is like to be a student. Being out of classes and getting a glimpse into the "real world" and then coming back to studying and homework is not easy. However, I am so thankful that I will be finishing off my time here at Taylor with all of my friends as a legitimate college student.
Anyways...I am a pretty sentimental person, so I have been thinking about the "last" this and the "last" that since August, the start of senior year. The truth is that I love Taylor University. It has been nothing but a blessing in my life. These past four years have truly been my best; however, they have also been the most challenging. When I look around the campus, I see beauty everywhere. This beauty is mainly in the people that make up this place. Being a senior, there are times when you feel like you don't know anyone because there are so many underclassmen. Even so, there are so many people that I walk by and am thankful for knowing them. I sometimes get excited to think that we have all been under the same type of an education and that we each have such different gifts and talents and personalities. It makes me think of the Body of Christ and how we all work together. How amazing it would be if all of these Taylor students and all the other Christians out there, would keep this type of energy and passion about the Lord and use it for His glory. It is beyond comprehension I think. Being with these people and seeing Christ shining brightly fills me with hope. I still know that I will struggle with leaving, but I will leave in hope of a bright future...knowing that God is working everywhere through His people...especially in those Upland students. :)
