The Beginning of the Journey

So I had a thought today! I should share all of my updates on my blog for anyone who read thems! Not that anyone reads my blog.....but just in case! And at least I will always have my own thoughts to reflect on!

Hello Friends! :)
Thought you might like to hear my recent update. Just yesterday I was working on some items for registration this fall. I have an appointment set up for next Tuesday to hopefully get a plan together, possibly get a class or two waived, and gain permission for any work God may provide outside of my BSU assistantship. In all the correspondence, I received an email that BSU had awarded me 2500 more dollars for my first year! I must say, God has a way of reminding us that He is still at work. To be honest, the thought that went through my mind was how weak my faith was.....sometimes we only get what we pray for! I remember in February, following my audition, I often prayed, "God, even half an assistantship would help." After getting that, and not finding work for the summer, I often pray/ed, "God could you provide a little more." Sometimes I felt selfish, other times, just plain helpless. But after yesterday, I literally wondered what God might have provided had I come to Him in Faith, nothing wavering, asking for my needs to be supplied for......Would He have shown me greater and mightier things than I could have imagined? Definitely food for thought! I did get what I asked for......but do I think so little of my God that I could not have asked for what He has promised to provide--that equal to the cattle on a thousand hills!


Anyway.....I do stand amazed! My parents and I often remind me that what God has ordered up, He will pay for......and He seems to be doing just that! :)
