Change at the Drop of a Hat

I got into Touro University's Nursing School in Henderson, Nevada. My heart is overjoyed to see God answer prayers within my life. God is truly giving me the desires of my heart... to the core depth of things that I didn't even know about. Nursing school: I have been desiring to be a nurse for years now. I have been praying about getting into nursing school, been prayed for by those who love me, been encouraged, discouraged by past rejection letters... but the ultimate picture and plan that is visible now, makes me want to get on my knees and praise God for what He is doing. I had to completely surrender everything to God. The decision to give Everything was given up while I was in Africa. I came to the point of complete realization that I have to trust everyday, in every situation, in all things in the Lord. I can't do this alone. I don't want to do this alone. As I look back on the past rejection letters and past things that have occurred...I am in complete surrender and vulnerability. God knew exactly what I needed to do within my life, within my spiritual life, and within my relationship before I got into nursing school. I needed to learn how to do devotions consistently and in a way that I can meet with the Lord so that my spiritually life would grow and not be stagnate during nursing school. I needed to go to Africa and be encouraged to serve those around me in my life here at home. Another thing that is an answer to prayer is A man: who loves the Lord, Loves me, Adores who I am, Likes the little things about me, and respects me and lifts me up in the Lord. That is beautiful. Praise God for that. He is encouraging to me on multiple levels and our friendship is centered on Christ which gives our relationship a strong foundation. I have been praying for a man of God who desires to be a better person everyday. Who desires to live a life that is honorable and respectful. He is a good man. I am grateful for the Lord's hand in my life and the many things that are happening. I look forward to seeing what God has for my life in these next few months and years.
