Christmas Eve Post

this post never got finished....or posted. i'll post it anyway.


Well, two months ago was my last post. I couldn't even think about the ole' blog for being so busy. Now, i kinda wish that i did so i wouldn't feel like i was "behind" on sharing my life. haha! Nursing school for second semester ended. The Lord allowed me to complete two classes this semester. I am going to have to repeat one class...pharmacology. It took a turn for the worst around test 3 and never got better. Sad! I enjoyed the class though and I am thankful for being able to repeat it. They could have not allowed me to take it again, so I am happy that they said yes. It was a neat experience. Of course I cried, and I think I'm still in a little bit of denial that Court and I are actually separated in this whole nursing thing. She will move on, and I will stay back. But through it all, the Lord truly sustained me...in more way that one. ha! I'm such a dork. But really, I couldn't deny that this is His sovereign plan for me to not graduate in 2012. This was never his plan B, like it's my plan B. He's got me, and for that I'm thankful. I would have never have met the people in this class if I had not had to join them. I pray that the Lord uses me among the people that I will now graduate with. I was talking with my friend, Luke, one night. Luke is probably the most encouraging person that I've ever met. he's a good one. He shared with me how thankful He was for the mindset that we are able to have with school. As we're walking through college, constantly stressed out that we are going to ruin our lives by making one bad grade, we can step back and truly thank God for loving us through it all. He loves me when I think my GPA matters more. He loves me when I put school first. He loves me through it all. I'm so thankful for His grace, His plans, and His sovereignty over my life. God truly gives me peace in every situation. I can't imagine my life without my Savior.
