GUESS WHAT?? I got a B in a class I realllly truly should have failed! I did like everything wrong (overslept, missed critical assignments, didn't study, turned in stuff late if at all..etc) and it was the one class I needed to pass to get in to Channel Islands next year. I wanted to do well, and I tried hard at times, but I just got so exhausted and overwhelmed this semester with work/family stuff.. I seriously messed up everything, but I felt like the Lord just encouraged me to keep doing what I could do and to call on Him for my help. When I wasted all my time and made decisions, I was tempted to not ask for help (because I didn't "deserve" it) and just wallow in my guilt/shame, but every time God reminded me that I don't deserve anything; That everything I have, including a wide open relationship with HIM, is mine because Jesus was the perfect one on my behalf. He always humbled me and asked me to call on him for help and butttt-loads of saving grace!! I swear to you that I passed by prayer, and by Gods grace alone!!!!! and its awesome and exhilarating. I LOVE GOD! hahah!! I am sooo glad His grace shines very, very, most-brightest in our weakness. It's wonderful. I'm so glad that He has called me to school right now (something I am naturally a ding-dong at), because He has shown Himself off over and over again through it, and built up my faith big time. In my laziness he shows himself diligent. In my forgetfulness he shows himself faithful and mindful. In my weakness he shows himself strong. In my apathy he shows himself passionate. In my mistakes he shows himself perfect. He's also changed me a lot and made me a way more responsible, diligent student (though I CERTAINLY don't always operate in that) haha. I think school has been a very valuable life experience for me in this way (and other ways as well). I believe that when God leads me to new callings and journeys in the future, I will remember His perfect faithfulness and nearness in this one. He always brings us through different experiences for our good. I can attest to that! It's not easy or pain free, but a life spent with God is seriously a win-win!
Yay yay yay!!! Just wanted to share the good news and give God the praise and ggglllloorrry HE DESERVES! Though it has been really very tough, I LOVE this season of life and am sooo thankfully enjoying it.
woohoo woohoo woohoo!!!!!!



p.s. They should just make my diploma out to God at this rate bahahha.
