For the past few months now my husband and I have been looking into the idea of sending me off to hair school. There are many reasons. First is it something I have always been interested in, just ask my Mother. Up until now it has not been an option due to finances. I really would love to get some training that will give me a useful skill anywhere I go. One that is a necessity for most North Americans ( unless you are follicley challenged, like my dear husband). I want a skill that capitalizes on my strengths, my creative abilities and my outgoing personality. I want a skill that can be used in the workforce as well as from home for when I have children. So I can make some money with out leaving home. And finally and most recently, God has given me some pretty exciting idea's as to how He can use it for His glory to ministry to the less fortunate in a very practical way.
I am very excited about the idea. One great thing about moving to Vancouver is there are way more options for schools then there ever was in Kelowna. There are also a few based out of well established high end salons down town Vancouver. Their programs are shorter in length, only part time, more effective, teach more modern techniques and cost much less! We are about 90% sure about registering me for a course that starts in January 2011! Very exciting. The best part is God totally provides. We have been very prayerful about this decision and will continue to be, but we have also received a lot of encouragement in pursuing this from many godly people we respect and trust.
God has us on this amazing journey, and I really want to share all that he is teaching us, how he provides and the steps he sets before us, for your encouragement and mine, but most importantly for God's glory!
For those for those of you waiting for pictures of our new place... they are coming soon. Everything is done except there is a pile of tiny little boxes and electrical wires in the corner were the TV is. It is still waiting to be set but, unfortunately I am not the one who can do that... I might be waiting for a while because someone is not in much of a rush to set up the TV (which is not a bad thing, it is just a bit messy to leave the stuff out)
VOTD (verse of the day):
"Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire."
Hebrews 12:11
Till next time,
In Christ & for the Glory of God!
you would be a GREAT HD, and I would come all the way out there to have you cut mine :) I can't wait to hear what happens with that in January. I also can't wait for pictures of the new place, stories from your new adventures and you blogging on a more regular basis (just thought I'd throw that one in ). Love you <3
