I think inspiration is a little like motivation. In many ways, it comes from within because it reflects a person’s own values. When I become inspired to do something, I act on it with a great deal of motivation! Inspiration comes to me by surrounding myself with excellence, which is what I have done by being a part of this class. You have all inspired me.
Several weeks ago while riding home from our Tuesday night class I commented on how quickly this year has flown. Of course I want to earn this degree and have some free time to call my own, but I also want to cling to the opportunity I’ve been given to learn from each of you. How many times in our lives are we given the gift of such scholarly discussions led by such knowledgeable instructors who know how to stretch our thinking? How blessed I feel for being given this experience! I’m thankful that my precious Lord saw fit to include this in His plan for my life. I don’t know where I’ll go next, but I’ll always cherish this year, especially because I’ve gotten to know teachers at my own school better. Thank you!
