Following God

Hey guys. I have a praise!
I have made the difficult decision to not do my internship this fall. It just didn't feel right and I didn't have peace about doing it. I felt God leading me to stay here and take classes. It was a pretty hard decision and I argued with God in my head for a bit --but God always wins, you know? :)
And now that I think about it more, I realize that doing the internship would not be a wise move --yes, it may help my career, but I wouldn't be able to pay bills because I wouldn't be working...plus, the sanctuary has some views that are definitely not Biblical...some PETAish statements on their website...
So I was worried about being able to get into classes this late, but God provided and I was able to go on the computer and register right away --the ag classes I needed were still open! :jump:
God totally provided in an awesome way! I was surprised that it was this easy to just sign up for the classes I needed.

So, I will definitely be graduating from college in May! I'm nervous about it and a little worried about what's going to happen afterwards --but I know God has a plan for me and He will make a way...I've just got to continue trusting Him with the future --and take one day at a time...
"Do not worry about tomorrow --for each day has enough trouble of its own." as Jesus said.

I just can't believe I'm getting so close...it's crazy. It seems like only yesterday I was a freshman moving into my dorm...now I will graduate in May (5 years total).

So yay! I'm going to graduate in May! And I know God will provide (job, place to live, transportation, etc.)!

Wow.. You got in college early, didn't you?

But hey! I'm glad God helped you make the right decision. There's something real good that happened. I guess you could say that your prayer request for bad events in your life to stop happening/lessen in intensity was sort of granted considering the problems you avoided with this decision.

Thanks for letting us know about this! :grin:
