If there's anything I've found out to be true in my life its that things never work out the way I plan them.
-If you had asked me my junior year of high school whether I'd be attending GCSU I'd of thought you were crazy.
-I had so many expectations going into my freshman year of college (including making loads of friends, knowing everybody, being involved in tons of different things, dating someone, etc.) most of which did not happen.
- I also mapped out my whole college career path of making at least a 3.7 before applying for the Fall of 2011 Nursing cohort.
Well as I should have expected, God has changed pretty much all of that.
This school year, although I learned alot, had its share of challenges. I had a pretty hard time finding a group of friends, and seeing my friends from highschool its pretty hard to find people as special as them. I also had extreme spiritual warfare in the Fall, alot of which I'm still struggling with right now. School, especially chemistry, has been extremely difficult and no amount of studying or persevering seems to be getting me the grades I need or want.
So where am I now?
I'm taking classes all Summer to get my grades up. I am also trying to figure out a job to be making money to pay for part of school. And I'm on the track to go into the Spring 2012 nursing cohort.
Not what I had planned but the Lords plans are always better than mine and although I am extremely frustrated, namely with myself, I know that something good will come out of this.
The Lord doesn't promise us that the path will be easy but it will push us to grow more with Him and the reward is spending eternity with the lover of our Souls, and I think that's pretty darn amazing.
Psalm 62:11-12
"One thing God has spoken, two things have I heard:
that you, O God, are strong,and that you, O Lord, are loving.
Surely you will reward each person according to what he has done."

His Princess
His Joy
