Prayer and Praise
Posted: Sun Jun 02, 2013 8:36 pm
Hey guys! Haven't been on the site for a while but I'll explain why.
This current quarter of college has kept me for doing lots of things that I love to do: Hanging out with my friends, working, getting online, and sleep (I love sleep). This is the main reason I haven't been on much. Much of my free time, if I can get it, has been spent hanging out with friends and a certain special someone. It's been the hardest quarter ever, and definitely the hardest couple months of my life that I can think of. (I'm getting to the point don't worry) I've been doing great in two out of my three classes, but one of my teachers hadn't been grading any of our assignments, and with us nearly at the end of the quarter I was getting really discouraged with my grade being up in the air. I got angry, and had lots of venting with some friends.
The past couple weeks have been the hardest because of decisions I've had to make, and also the stress of doing nothing but work. I've stumbled, I'll be honest, but I've done my best to keep God at the center of it all. These past few weeks I've just been praying and asking God to help me with my classes. Today I logged on to my school account and noticed some assignments had been graded. I was astonished to find that every assignment I had submitted had received a grade of..... 100%!!!!!!!! (This is the praise part) Instantly I was sitting there just thanking God that all those long hours (An average of 5 hours an assignment, for just one class with an assignment due each day) of work had payed off.
Now as I enter my final two weeks, I ask for prayer for more important decisions I have to make soon, such as when I will enlist, and also whether I should pursue things with that special someone (Which I'm hoping God will answer that sometime, but until then we're just friends). With that I also ask that you pray for my sanity during these final two weeks, and also for the months/years to come as I go into my career field.
Thanks guys! (BTW I'll try to get on more often from here on out)
