a year and a half later and i am living in my favorite city, loving every minute of being a student at my dream school. my journey to get here has been far from easy. what a year last year. a year that prepared me. a year that really shook me.
i would not replace this last year for a moment and because of the hard year, i am so much more thankful to be where i am now.
what ive learned:
-being rejected 2 times from a school does not mean that they hate you. it means that God just does not have that on the agenda.
-my plans may be awesome but none of them have worked out. and His plans have gone beyond my wildest dreams.
-don't give up when things are hard and there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel
-i really don't trust God like i thought i did
-i was not have been ready for the city last year
and those are just some of the things i learned (the hard way) this last year.
Today i got a job. What a blessing. God knew exactly my needs and provided. Boy its ridiculous how little i think of Him sometimes...like the God of the universe just doesn't understand my financial needs. I am getting new glimpses of how truly personal and intimate he wants to be with me. What a gift that i have so carelessly thrown around. I am so thankful. After i left the job interview, i jumped (literally) with joy. I was just in awe that He was there every step of the way. In my anxiety, meltdowns, doubts, he was there.
Isn't it wonderful how the LORD chooses to reveal Himself and how specific He is to love us individually! So grateful for you and what the Lord is doing! Love you!
