The School life demands a whole lot. A lot of reading, homework and thinking is involved. I did not imagine to get back into this rigorous training scene once Engg. College was over. Not that I studied over there but still it's the way of saying it...:-)
The commitment and faithfulness to a timely study is the biggest challenge. Lately I have been battling my stress levels which is evident from constant headaches and neck pain. It has been a few months now since the pain has got hold of me. The work load at the office is also taking its toll on me...
I believe this is the time when I can rest in God's providence and grace to grant me His strength to see through this stressful time. I know humanly speaking I can do nothing about my situation but this is the time for me to learn to trust in him. This to me is a learning period where I have to wait patiently for his hand to move things for me, that includes my headaches and pains...:-)

First Steps to Change-DTS Enrollment...
Transformation, Change, Redemption, Makeover, ...one can call it anyway they want it.
This was my "personal" goal and desire when I decided to join Dallas Theological Seminary at the Houston extension campus. Humanly speaking, few professors at the C.B.S campus played a significant role in my decision making process.
My family did back me up but I could sense a fear of the unknown and a fear for my future lurking in their eyes as they acknowledged my decision. The fear that love can create and cause is a big one and especially with greater love comes greater fear. I felt the pain my parents silently bore that came along with my decision. My cultural background and upbringing had a lot to do with the mixed emotions and feelings of anxiety...
Anyways, here I am at DTS already having gone through my first two semesters and into the third semester towards my Th.M degree (Masters in Theology). A long road to completion to achieve the formal degree certificate....
No aspirations to shepherd a flock but to be prepared in season and out of season to preach the word if asked by God to do so....
