the day her dreams came true.

I’m not sure how to begin writing this entry, there is so much I want to say. I always begin by just writing honestly from where I sit, how I’m thinking in the moment.

I’m grateful. Humbled. In awe. Excited. Absolutely touched inside. Joyful with hope. And even feeling a twinge of unworthiness of such an honor.

I was asked to serve as Residence Hall Chaplain for Martin Hall during Fall 2010-2011!

I accepted gratefully and excitedly. I had been waiting patiently for five, six days to hear whether I was chosen for the position. After the second interview, I was positive about how I was able to express my heart and how they received me. After days of no notification of if I was or wasn’t going to be a hall chaplain, I feel like God used that time to further prepare my heart to be at peace and trust Him completely if I did not get it. I’m thankful for that. Now I ave to figure out who I will be rooming with and who my suite-mates will be- I have NO clue yet!

But I don’t want to write about the experience. I want to thank God and give Him glory. I want to express how much this answered prayer means to me. You could never know how much, because there is so much I couldn’t even begin to dive into and share. I am so humbled that God has willed such an amazing opportunity I gave into His hands and that He will use me in this way.

“Come and see the works of God, He is awesome in His doing towards the sons of men”! (Psalm 66:5).
I have had five prophecies since last semester that really confirmed this is what God has been leading me into, and that this is truly where He wants me to be. I feel like a dream came true because this is the way I would love to lead and serve on this campus and it fits me like perfectly. He has been preparing me for a long time for this. I am so grateful and humble to be able to accept the opportunity.

For those of you who are still praying for God for guidance or trusting Him about things you are patiently waiting direction or an answer on, I hope these verses will encourage you and become realized as deep truths for your life (as they are in mine)!

“Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.” (Psalm 37:4)
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths.”(Prov.3:5-6)
