A few weeks ago I wrote about finally earning my bachelors degree. I also wrote that I couldn't get my diploma because I still owed money to the university. At that time, I wasn't too stressed over the situation because I believe that God is in control. Well, I was right.
This past weekend, my darling husband sold six of our cattle. They were old and ready for market. Frank gave me enough of the money from the sale to pay the entire tuition bill. I went to the university on Monday, paid the bill and received my diploma. The hold on my transcripts was also released so now, I can apply to grad school. Can I get a "Praise the Lord?" Because that's exactly what I'm doing.
I am so glad I left that request at the feet of my wonderful Father. He is so good and with Him, I have nothing to worry about.
How awesome it is to serve such a loving God. I am always amazed at how much He loves me. I certainly don't deserve it yet He continues to show me His unfailing gracy and mercy.
So, now that this part of my detour is behind me, I look forward to the road ahead. For now, God is allowing me to work as a substitute teacher to help with the bills. I love being in the classroom, but my true dream is to be a Media Specialist (librarian). There is a position opening at the end of this year in the middle school in our neighborhood. I would love to have that position, but I want only what God has planned. I know that whatever He has in store for me will be more than I could ever dream.
The future looks so bright and I'm excited to walk with my Lord.
Blessings!
