Greater things are yet to come



I find out in the next week or so if I got into nursing school or not....
This is a really big deal for anyone, let alone me. I was not the best high school student and after I graduated I took a few basic classes at the community college for a year. I was then married and moved off to TX.  School was put on the back burner as I worked two jobs to support Stephen and I while he played baseball for Texas Tech University.
As much as I always wanted to be a nurse I never thought it was an actual possibility. It's my ultimate dream job, who gets to say they are doing the one thing in life they always dreamed they would be doing. My theory is that we spend most of our lives working, if we aren't doing something that we love our lives would be pretty miserable.
So I started plucking away at my prerequisites about a year ago, taking 14-18 hours at a time. With Stephen working here in Midland my choices in schools are pretty limited, and each school requires different prerequisites. I catered mine to Midland College. Texas Tech has a P.A. program there and we would share a simulation lab, which is known to be one of the best in TX!
I applied for the spring program (2014) I find out in a week or so if I got in. This will be one of the biggest accomplishments of my life.
I had a little scare last week finding out that the only program I applied to lost their accreditation (which is a huge deal) you wouldn't want to go to a non-accredited school no matter how good their simulation lab is. Like I said this was only a scare, they ARE accredited, the national accreditation program made a mistake.
So as the excitement builds I am reminded of the many blessings God has bestowed on my life. I am filled with joy knowing He is with me no matter where I go. Every blessing in this life comes from Him. It will be His will whether or not I get into nursing school, whatever the decision is, I am looking forward to seeing where God will take me.
