Well, unfortunately I did not sleep very well last night at all. For some reason I was plagued with rolling nightmares about the most bizarre things—disasters, my kids and even a ridiculously real monster that wasn’t nearly as cute as the monster in the picture to the left.
Remind me never again to eat North Carolina Bar-b-Que at a Biker Bar the night before I am to interview and test.
On a positive note, I am ready. It seems to be, I don’t know, “cliche'” I suppose, to have spent some time looking over Jeremiah 29:11. But that is where I landed this morning for a bit. But not just verse 11, but the verses following:
11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. 13 You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you, declares the Lord, and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you, declares the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile.
I want to seek God with all of my heart. I want him to gather me from the places where he—yes, God—has driven me. I have much more to think and write about those verses.
My first interview is at 9:15 this morning, an individual interview that I am grateful to be getting out of the way first. At 11:15 will be a group interview. And then this afternoon will be full of testing. I have to pay a large matriculation fee this morning, I just barely have the funds to do so, but I just checked and the funds are there. I am grateful. Now if I can get home on my one tank of gas! 🙂
If you read this, this morning, know that I am grateful for your prayers.
