I Finally Did it!

I finally did it. I graduated from college and earned my degree! I now have a B.S. in Agribusiness. I don't feel any smarter, but I do feel like I've accomplished something. I've worked so hard these past 4 1/2 years to get this degree. And I never thought I'd survive my 21 hour semester, but I did.

I have to say, I'm pretty proud of myself. Will I miss college? Yes and no. I'll miss some of my friends and professors, but I most certainly will not miss classes, exams, finals, papers, and projects.

It's funny how much different my life is now, than I ever imagined it would be at this point. I'm very please with where I am and the way things are going. God has been so good to me, and it's totally his fault that I'm where I am. :)

My friends and family have done so much to love me and support me through this hectic academic journey. No, I didn't graduate with honors, but I graduated. That's what counts. So what if I didn't have cords and sashes hanging around my neck. I have my degree, and there isn't anything that can change that. I worked my tail end off, and it shows. God is so good!

I also may ave a job soon. I went for an interview on Thursday, and it went pretty well. I just hope that I get this job. It would be a huge blessing, and it's something that I really need right now. But I know that if I don't get it, God has something bigger and better for me in store. Just please be in prayer about this. I know it's down between myself and someone with a masters. But I'm thinking that the person with a masters is looking for a temporary job until something better comes along, and I'm looking for a permanent job. So we'll see how it pans out.

Now the only major thing I need to do is get a move on this wedding planning. It shouldn't be that bad, and I'm pretty sure that it won't be near as stressful as 21 hours of classes were, lol.

Thank you to everyone who has helped me make it this far. I love ya'll and I'm so thankful for you :)

It's Like Groping in the Dark

There is 10 months and 28 days until my wedding...and even though I'm THRILLED, I'm really worried at the same time. The thing that worries me is how it's going to get paid for. I know that God will make provisions, and He knows what He's doing, but it's just hard to let go and let Him do what He does best. The unknown has a way of scaring the bajeebies outta me.

I just wish I could focus on the happiness of the whole thing, and enjoy it, rather than fret about it.

Have I mentioned how much I hate the hold money has on our lives?!

Peace

Wow, things are going amazing right now in my spiritual life.

My dad gets voted on at New Middleton Baptist next Sunday (Easter). This is very exciting. I've set foot in that church twice thus far, and I have fallen completely and utterly in love with this church and the people in it. It's an incredible answer to prayers. I really hope we get called there.

I've been looking over some of my previous posts on here, and I didn't realize how bitter and hurt I had been from the last church. It was pretty bad.

However, this new church is like a breath of fresh air. There is even someone there my age!!!! So exciting :)

I really feel God in that church, and it's been so long since I could say that about a church. I feel so much closer to Him now then I have in over a year.

He's so good to me...much more than I deserve.

Praise God for this new beginning!
