GOD IS SOOO GOOD!!!!!!

Many of you received text messages from me earlier today with the same text that makes up the title of this blog post.  So let me explain. . .




First of all, yesterday was an alright day, but there were some struggles.  After my calculus class, I realized that I was nowhere near prepared for the class and I was really struggling even understanding how to do one problem.  Letters and variables I had never seen before were being used like I should have known them years ago.  I decided to try switching to a different math class that would be more suited to me.  (I don't need calculus for nursing anyway!)  I went to talk to an advisor and they explained to me that after the second week of classes, the math department has to handle and approve all changes.  So I left and walked to the OTHER side of campus to talk to the math department.  I walk in to this lady's office and asked if she is who I needed to talk to to switch classes.  She told me that she had instructions on her office door that I needed to follow.  This included emailing her with the class I want to switch to and what different sections would fit my schedule, remembering that I might not even get into any of the classes.




I left her office and immediately wrote down all sections that would work for me and emailed her the list.  I didn't hear anything back all day and was starting to feel doubtful.  I went to my scholars group meeting which was. . . whatever.  The speaker was very engaging and fun to listen to but I really didn't care to be there.  As I was leaving my meeting, I received an email from the Sooner CERT president informing me that I was going to be one of the people working on the stretcher team at the football game this weekend.  So not only will I get into the football game for free, I get to be on the field and work with the Norman EMS staff!  Praise God!!




I went straight from my meeting to a large group bible study that was being put on by a group called Intervarsity.  The second I walked into the room, I felt super comfortable with everyone and had no problem talking to people and making friends.  I actually saw a few people from my scholars group that I connected with as well!  At Intervarsity, we studied a passage in John 6.  One of the main concepts was to believe.  "Then they asked him, 'What must we do to do the works God requires?'  Jesus answered, 'The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent'" (John 6: 28-29 NIV).  Let me emphasize that. . . BELIEVE!!!!!  All God is asking us to do is to believe!  This leads me back to one of my favorite bible verses.  "We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ.  And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are" (Romans 3:22 NLT).  Just BELIEVE!!  That's all it takes!  Believe in Jesus Christ and what he has done for you!! He's AMAZING!!!!!!


I left intervarsity and walked back the 3/4 mile to the dorms with a very nice girl named Mallory.  We talked about our hometowns and other small talk.  Praise God for growing friendships!


Moving on to today, I prayed and prayed both last night and this morning that I will be able to get this class switched because it was weighing heavy on my heart.  I was sitting in my political science discussion and looked down at my phone because I got an email.  The email said that I had been approved to switch math classes through the math department!! PRAISE THE LORD JESUS!!!!!  It might sound like something stupid to be so excited about but I was absolutely sure I was going to do very bad in the calculus class and I really needed to switch. 


My lesson in the past two days is that nothing to impossible for Christ!  He has shown me over and over that he is in control and that I need to believe in His will.  YES FATHER!!!!  I want to be in Your will!  I want to be a part of Your plan!  I just want to praise Your name EVERYWHERE right now!!!  Thank you lord for everything you continue to do for me and thank you for looking out for me!!  AMEN JESUS!
