this is both a prayer request and a praise all in one, so keep up if you can

i'm very thankful because the Lord has provided for me to resume my schooling once again and has even provided me with, oddly enough, a friend that i've known for a while through just the internet. which is cool, 'cus we're both trying to get into radio broadcast so chances are we'll probably be colleagues later in life.

now comes the part where you hit your knees for me 'cus i'm half sweating bullets over this. *takes a deep breath* ok, i'm in this other class for learning how to run the sound board and operate the equipment and even learn how to develop different voices that can be used in broadcasting, well, the lady who's teaching it is a fervent atheist (as in she's a super intellectual and from what i've heard is even buddy buddy with some of the security folks at a local abortion clinic), from what i understand she's the one who's going to be in charge of a new internet radio station that the school is starting up, which i would like to be a part of, but only if it's what God wants, i'm very concerned that she may be the kind of teacher who would bias her grading because a student may have differing beliefs

and on top of all this *takes an even deeper breath* it seems that this lady shared a house with my biological father about 12 years ago, but i don't know that she's made that connection to me yet because i have my mother's maiden last name (whole 'nother long story there), and i don't think it's really wise for me to call attention to who my father is because she may even bias her grading against me due to some past bitterness from that as well.

i guess what my prayer is for what the Lord wants her to know to be known and for what the Lord wants to remain hidden for now to remain hidden. if it means i flunk out this semester from her course, then so be it, i'll be right back in there next semester until i pass the course, pray that the Lord use me to share His love with her that she may be drawn to Him and become saved, and pray for the station that if its the Lords will for me to be involved that he would open the doors and use the station also as a means of drawing others to himself

thank you all

Wow that's confusing, but yet I understand. I'll be praying.

o____o Whoa. Don't take this the wrong way but that sounds like something out of a radio drama right there!

As for the atheist teacher, well that's college isn't it? >.>;; Atheist liberal academics favorite hunting ground. Just the same, we as Christians can be a light to people like her by our behavior and the fact that we are not going the way of the world. If you decide to pursue the radio show, God may work through you in order to touch the hearts of the people around you. On the other hand if it's a hopeless flaming atheist kinda situation, He might lead you somewhere else. Seeing as I'm not God and wouldn't know just pray that He reveals His will to you in the situation.

As for her having a relationship with your biological father, I can't say much except maybe you're right not to rock the boat if you have reason to suspect she's the type who might react bitterly.

In my prayers.

my thanks to both of you

Sounds quite frightening to have some ghost from the past show up at this time in your life. I'll be praying things go smooth for you, whether the teacher finds out who you are or not. If it turns out she does, I'll be praying there's no resulting bitterness.
