Tomorrow is our last day of classes. I cannot believe it. All that stands between me and Christmas break(and a good night's rest) is 3 finals and my OSCE. I started thinking back on the semester today and I realized I have just seen so much of Christ in the past couple of months. I have seen his obvious work in my life. I saw first hand God working things together for my good. I know that this is God's plan for my life and I have been able to give Him all the glory. Every single step that got me to this point has been all Christ and because I am so incredibly blessed I can't help but turn it right back to Him. I am sure you all know my Mammalian saga. I found out I got that D in the Spring and bawled. I talked to the teacher and was stuck with my 69.5 and I bawled again. Numerous times during the summer I cried until my head hurt because I just knew I couldn't handle the work load ahead of me because I was so discouraged because of that grade. I worked so hard to come up 3 points short. I was angry, hurt, and felt cheated. 3 points was all I needed and the teacher didn't care one bit. Josh encouraged me and told me I could do it but I just thought "that is easy for you to say. you have no idea. you don't have to take this whole super hard class again". I literally couldn't even talk about it without crying.
But God had bigger and better. He showed me so much of Himself and His love for me through that whole experience. I have seen something I thought was just so terrible, turned so good. God completely flipped the switch. I see others who are also repeating the class still struggling and I have gone from a D to an A. There is no way I can claim that. I am not doing it at the expense of my other classes either. I am doing well in everything. I have all As and Bs. You may think I am dumb but I havent been able to say that about ANY semester of college. I started off with a C in Comp I and I was doomed. I am in complete awe of God's love for me. I am incredibly blessed. I have an awesome family who loves and supports me. I have an amazing boyfriend who encourages me and believes in me even when I don't believe in myself. I have the best friends who give me comic relief. I absolutely cannot complain but even better I can't help but give praise to God for it all.
Even though this semester is coming to an end, I can't wait to see what God has in store for me. I am positive it will be amazeballs :)
