Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts I think towards you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Some times when I pray I want God to answer MY way and not HIS way. The Lord showed me this this past week. All week long I have trying to figure out my schedule for next semester, trying to figure out how many credits I could take with out killing my self. Trying cut down on the the number of semesters it would take me to finish a BS in Business after getting my AS in Culinary Arts. I have been praying that God would give me the courage to take 20 credits next semester. I prayed that God would show me what he wanted me to do but in reality what I wanted was God to show me the way to do what I wanted. God used a wise woman in my life to make me see that I need to trust His plan and not try to force my own plan. God then used that same women to help steer my choices as she has done my whole life. This change in my plans is good, it  makes my short time at BJU all the more sweeter. I will trust in the one who holds my future and the one who is writing my part in HIStory.
