Life has been so hectic for me the past few weeks. I finally graduated from Marshall University on July 11. There were so many times that I wanted to give up and simply quit, but that of course was never a real option. I started applying for jobs on Monday; so far I have not been called in for an interview. Please keep me in your prayers; I am hoping to be placed in a full-time position.
Looking back on the past four years, it is very hard for me to believe where I am today. It seems like I spend so much time wishing for the future... Willing it to come quickly. I thought that this time in my life would never really get here. I am still in awe that I am actually a university graduate. I could have done none of it without God, however. He has been my guidance... my lighthouse these past four years. I do not understand how those who are lost make it without Him. I can only imagine how much more stress I would have had if I had not had Christ to turn to for comfort.
I suppose now that this part of my future has finally arived, I need to start thinking about the next step. I hope to start graduate school in the Spring. I have not looked into different schools yet, but I will more than likely apply to one of Marshall's Graduate programs. A lot of courses are offered online which will be ideal for me since I now live so far from the university. Also, if I get the job that I really want I will only be fifteen minutes from the university; I could easily go to classes after I get off of work. Please remember me when you pray. Pray that I will listen for the instructions I am sure God has for my life, and that I will always seek Him first.
