Susan's Road Trip to California--Continued

This is probably the longest road trip EVER. Before it ends back in Texas next year sometime I will have experienced many things from ecstatic spiritual highs to deep humility and pain. In the end I will come out stronger and knowing more than ever. My TX pastor said it best--I have a great CAPACITY to grow spiritually. If only it weren't so hard to do. If only you could fail alone.

3/25/03

Home for lunch on a weird day. I am glad it is Tuesday because I am home tonight. Last night I taught in Mount Pleasant. Life has been busy again. Very busy. LA and the dreams and visions seem further away. But every morning at 5 I drag myself out of bed. I spend some time eating breakfast and doing morning stuff and then the rest til 7:30 is God’s. This morning was wonderful. I danced. I am amazed at how well I can balance a passe now. It is still not perfect but I am improving. I do this very day. I just had to have motivation to practice some of these moves. But my most exciting moment was the tambourine. I have finally gone through the whole beginner syllabus. To some that is minor but to me it was great. Now I won’t say I got it all perfect or had the speed of the last couple patterns down with the footwork, but I knew them well enough to begin to practice the whole thing. I am going to now it. Now I have 17 days before I leave to go over it without having to learn new patterns. I can do that. That was very exciting. It is starting to click.

I am glad for that. This week has been rather exhausting already and it is a nice reprieve. California seems so far away now, but I hold on because it represents something special. God IS going to do something. So I wait for the promise.
