Contemplating and Praying

Over the last few weeks I have been seriously contemplating and wondering if I want to go on with my Master’s. Wondering if God really wants me to be in this direction. Thinking that I should begin working outside the home again. Wondering what would happen if I came out of remission with my Chron’s/Colitis. Thinking about the whats, the ifs, the whys, and therefores.

Here’s the thing. This contemplating is leading me to doubt. Doubt is from the enemy. Who is the stealer of dreams and does not want you to work in God’s plan. The enemy wants me to be out of sync with what my Creator wants for me.

So, the best thing to do…renew my prayer life…to be in prayer and ask for prayer. Every day and every hour (if need be). Read the Bible daily and concentrate on God’s plan, not the enemy’s words.  To keep me on goal. To know that the end of the Bachelor’s is not very far. (Only 4 more classes) Master’s of Healthcare Chaplaincy is applied for. 

Praying that everything will align so that I can go into Clinical Pastoral Education program at St. Mary’s during the time I am working on my Master’s of Chaplaincy (Healthcare). 

Praying that I might have the chance to use my voice and efforts in a productive manner. To be an advocate for those who face the decisions of end of life alone. Especially, adults with special needs and Veterans. That they will not be bullyed, neglected, or abused in any way.  That my voice for their voice matters. 

God has given me a path and a vision. It is up to me to trust in the promises of God.  To know that He is in control. Blessed be the name of the Lord.

Wrapping up Spring Semester 2018

TWO MORE WEEKS:
Just two more weeks … and then Spring 2018 will be in the books … and I will be moving on into my last five classes and final two semesters for my Bachelor’s…
AACCKKK! Excited, nervous, ready to be done…
Here’s the thing…
I am so blessed to be going to a University that is God-fearing, Bible believing, and willing to help when I have even the silliest of questions.
When I started this renewed journey to finish my education in the Fall of 2015 I never thought that this would be the time I would be done…
But it has, and I want to thank all who are praying for me, loving me, supporting me, and pushing me through.
