Life is full of surprises. Some make you cry, others make you laugh. And then there are some that stop you dead-on in your tracks, looking side to side, wondering what the heck just happened, how it happened, and what you did to deserve something as wonderful as it.
That's where I am.
Over $100,000 in the hole, I never thought I'd be able to attend this college, much less succeed academically. But what I have seen happen over the last few months was nothing short of a fragment of the glory and provision of the Lord. I've always known I've been called to something bigger than what is laying right at my feet. I could always feel this calling to jump off the ledge, have faith like a child, and just believe.
I have no idea what to expect. I havn't a clue as to what my income will be, if I'll even like it, if I'll fail, or if I'll cry my eyes out every night wanting to come home. All I know is that right now, I've never been happier in my life. Not because I've gotten what I wanted, but because I am doing what I am called to do. And there's something about chasing after your calling, there's something about believing that you are here to serve a purpose, there's something about taking a risk, that makes me feel more joy and peace than I have ever felt before. Dang straight, I'm scared out of my mind, but I couldn't be happier. I'm finally where I'm supposed to be. This is what I was created for.
