Summer Clerkships!

Having finally solidified my plans for the summer, I wanted to take a break from studying and share what I am doing with all of you. :)

I will be working part time at 2 firms for the entire summer. I am not really sure if it will look like M,W,F at one and T, Th at the other or half days at each. Either way I could not be more excited. One is an estate planning firm, Sam Miller, P.C., and the other is a corporate (both litigation and transactional) firm, The Fettner Law Firm. Since I am interested in corporate work or estate planning when I graduate (as of now at least) I am thrilled to get further insight (hopefully) into what I want to do with my law degree.

This has been a long and tedious process and I feel like the Lord has brought me through the fire. I dislike not knowing what I am going to do next. I also dislike feeling unintelligent and this year has had its fair share of both. God has been so gracious to me and I could not be more excited, but the process was hard for me. Mainly because throughout this year I have learned just how far I have to go in this process we call sanctification. I realized I very often want things MY way and not the Lord's. I very quickly will ask for the Lords will, but when it does not match my will I get disheartened and confused... I don't find this to be a very attractive quality in myself and I am confident the Lord is continuing to work on it in me... Which probably means more discomfort at some point, but I will take it (hopefully with grace and humility but most likely with grumbling :P ) if it means becoming more like my Savior!
