As you may have guessed...I am borrowing a computer for the weekend. And trust me, this post will be brief. Probably because I am so frustrated I want to scream.
Remember that private Christian college where I was attending to get my BSN, well due to an issue with ONE course, I have been denied acceptance into their nursing school, for a mere 5 YEARS. I am appealing the process so pray for me. Pray hard.
I am not totally in a bad place, I did get accepted to a community college, which all though it is MUCH cheaper, I can only get an ASN through them, and then would have to go somewhere else to get my BSN, and then probably somewhere else to get my Masters. It would be a 9 or 10 year journey(I would be like roughly 36 before I got there), versus a journey of roughly 6 or 7 years...8 at the most. I hope you grasp my frustration.
In the middle of my vent fest, my husband piped up quietly beside me. He said "God didn't open all the doors He opened, get you the jobs you got, get you in "your" school that you shouldn't have gotten into(I applied 2 months after the deadline), and continually worked out everything if He didn't have an ultimate purpose in mind. Maybe He wants you to go through the appeals process to prove to Him that this is what your heart really desires. Or maybe He is wanting to see if you are going to praise him no matter what. Or maybe He wants to see how hard your desire to attain the dreams HE gave you is. You never know what He is doing...remember, His ways aren't ours." I was sitting there not wanting to hear that, but I knew I needed to. I knew he was simply speaking to me what God was laying on his heart, and that as usual, he is my calming voice of reason.
So, we are waiting. Patiently, him more than me, but I am getting there.
