I come before the Lord with Joy
for I was once navigating through the fog
His unwavering love has brought me to the light
A familiar friendship waiting for me

for I was once navigating through the fog
I will give thanks to the good Father
A familiar friendship waiting for me
I must share the grace of the Lord

I will give thanks to the good father
His unwavering love has brought me to the light
I must share the grace of the Lord
I came before the Lord with Joy

Above is a Psalm of Thanksgiving that I wrote for our final project in our Bible class. It was a good reminder that I need to give thanks to the Lord for everything! December had plenty of things to be thankful for and being able to reflect on them and the first semester of Fellows made this assignment that much easier!

Here are a couple things that happened in December: Holiday Fellows pictures at Strawbridge Studios, Saw the trolls in Dorothea Dix park, a multitude of holiday parties, family dinners with host fam and real fam at our homeland Torero’s, a couple trips to Chapel Hill, tour of the Angus Barn, Elfing each other/Secret Santa, final class projects and presentations, a wonderful dinner at Margaux’s, party bus after the YAM Christmas party, Marty Supreme, Christmas!, Stranger Things, and of course the John Wall Holiday tournament.

I can’t believe that 2025 is coming to an end but at the same time I can’t wait for what 2026 has in store!
