Change is a hard concept to handle. We are constantly changing, yet there are also distinct moments when we can see how we have changed as people. While in the Louisville Bridge Fellows Program, I have been constantly changing. Sometimes I can see improvement, but, other times, I see regression. However, the change is still there.

One of the amazing parts of this program has been being able to accept that change will constantly be happening. While I write this, I am in a place of strong spiritual growth after an amazing weekend talking about our vocation from God. Right after Christmas, I was not having the strongest personal relationship with God even though the weeks leading up to Christmas felt like a steady growth to me. In the end, accepting that this cycle, this change, will constantly occur has been an amazing aspect of the program to learn.

I look forward to seeing how I continue to change over these final 3 months. Whether that change be in my professional experience, relationship with God, or just ability to plan out a week like an adult, I know that the change is coming. I am eager and anxious to see how God will help me tackle this change.
