I believe (and yes, I am biased) that because we are older, we are able to see things in classes that the younger students are not able to see. Many seminarians come straight out of college where they came straight out of high school and really have no life experience. This is not bad, but I think it is a benefit that is often overlooked by seminarians. Thank you for your last comment regarding the diary. To see that God is using that for His glory is an encouragement to great for words. I pray that the diary is an encouragement to others (I konw that it has been already) to persevere in their education. Seminary is a place where God will mold you and shape you into what He wants you to be. For some, like myself, harder lessons need to be learned. Through it all, I would say the greatest element to everything is that I am learning to depend upon God for everything and that alone is worth the hardship. God bless brother.

Wow! I empathize with you! I feel the same way except: I'll be turning 32 and it took me 10 years to get my AA (I'd better get that BA in the next two!). It is encouraging to me that God does not place time limits or restrictions on the people He calls to His service. Also, seeing (reading through your blogs) the way God is working in your life is a testimony of His faithfulness to provide when He is guiding. Thanks for the great tip. “an untimely-born, turning-30, seminary student who took 12 years to finish his undergrad (it is legitimate!)?”
