Have you ever wanted something super bad and then when you finally got it you weren't sure about it?
Last winter I applied to the Okanagan campus for the LPN program, (licensed practical nurse). I wasn't confident that I would be accepted, I have been out of school for 4 years and my marks being submitted weren't so high. I also needed a pre-requisite course in order to be considered, which I wasn't able to take due to me being out of the county. Well, when I came home from travelling, my mom told me she indeed did sign me up for the pre-requisite, I was just a few weeks behind, not impossible, but it would be a lot of work to catch up. So over time I have caught up and am doing well in the course. So last week I received a phone call from admissions from OK College, asking me if I was still interested in taking the course because a seat just opened up! WHAT! .. as tears welled up in my eyes, I accepted with my heart beating wildly, I could barely believe it! The more I thought about it after my excitement drew, the more nervous and overwhelmed I felt. While I was travelling I told myself how much I couldn't wait to get home and start real life and routine back up. I wanted to get serious about my studies and go back to school. I guess I just didn't think it would happen this fast. The Lord put some pretty strong desires on my heart. I prayed over and over for guidance and to follow in His path layed out for me, and now I am doubting that?! It's nuts how quick He has knit this together! With some great reassurance, encouragement and support from my dear mother, I am psyched to do this! It's going to be tough and stressful, but nothing that I can't handle because the Lord is walking with me! Unfortunately I do have to complete the pre-req and receive over 70% to officially get in! Pray I do well ! :)
I am as giddy as a school girl.. oh wait, I will be a school girl ! ;)
Sara! This is so good to hear! Congrats! I'll be praying that all works out well, but it's neat to hear how God knit it all together at just the right time!
