When a Fellow says yes, he or she embraces Mary’s words: “Let it be done to me according to thy word.” In this moment there is joy and peace! It is humbling to know that, imperfect though I may be, God allowed me to be a part of these children’s lives.
During the spring semester of my senior year of college, I spent many weeks writing applications and cover letters to every and any local school with an opening in my licensure area. Throughout this process, I felt no peace. At every turn, there was just something in my spirit that wouldn’t settle. When I came across yet another post from STF on a Sunday morning in March, I reacted reflexively with my own plan: “God, I don’t need that, I know what I’m doing.” At that moment, pushing back on God, something changed in me. My heart finally opened to Him, and I felt Him gently say “No, you really don’t.” For the first time, I listened to that nudge.
