Always acknowledge the Lord, and He will direct your paths. Also, you are still quite young, so your whole future is ahead of you. Only God knows the things that He has in store for you. I got myself a part time job when I went to Bible college. That way I had time to study and I got enough money to pay the fees and other day to day expenses.<br /><br />God bless<br />Peter<br />Peter Stonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896115247438514660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3015299104362685233.post-8816564031661336642014-10-15T08:41:58.420+11:002014-10-15T08:41:58.420+11:00Thank you Peter so much!

In 2012 I registered for college but I failed my placement test. The college recommended me to take tutoring. My score was so low that I couldn't enter a college level English course. I had to take tutoring sessions at my library. I was there for about a year. Then in 2013 I went back to the college and was able to pass my placement test. YAY! I went to orientation and was ready for school in the fall......until I allowed my anxiety to overcome me and I dropped out of college after my first week. Now I owe $998.55. I done all of that for nothing.<br /><br />I thought I made the biggest mistake of my life. I told myself that I should had been a CNA. But I sometimes remind myself that maybe God has other plans for me. Well months later I started reading more of the Bible and praying more. My so called dream to be an animator has been replace with another new dream. Well more like a desire. To serve God and to have a seat...my name in the Book of Life. I've been having my eye on this Bible college I came across online. I don't how I'll be able to go there...unless my Mom win the Lottery. Seriously. I am starting to have doubt that I will go there but I still have a little hope.......<br /><br />Your post has remined me of my situation. Maybe God is telling me something.<br />THANK YOU SO MUCH!<br />May you be blessed<br />And Than you God for bringing me hereInner Selfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01168158793016324793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3015299104362685233.post-5515075273875907322014-07-26T22:46:11.305+10:002014-07-26T22:46:11.305+10:00Dear Angela

I quit believing in coincidences years ago. I know God is a God of detail so I do believe when we seek Him with our heart, we do find Him. I found Him here in the scripture you shared. I was reminded, once again, of the peace that He wants me to have. It's been very hard watching those who I've allowed to rob my joy, kill my dreams, etc. move on as if nothing happened and they "seem" happy. While I sit here, having forgiven, trying to accept and live my life to the fullest. I have so many other blessings in my life that this won't keep me down, it's just the chapter of my life right now. Thanks again for your words of encouragement and hope.

God is so faithful when we recognize His sovereignty, and learn to trust in Him. <br /><br />13 "When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among my people, 14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 15 Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place. 16 I have chosen and consecrated this temple so that my Name may be there forever. My eyes and my heart will always be there. <br /><br />I am so glad that I found your blog. It is has been a blessing to me!
