Progress is being made. My visa was sent off to the Indian Embassy today to receive acceptance or denial; my transcript for my NCLEX was also sent off today for consideration by the Florida board of nursing. Nervousness is setting in. What if India denies my visa? What if I don't pass my boards. It's amazing how many questions and doubt can settle in even with our testimony of how the Lord has brought us thus far. The devil does a good job at what he does. And yet, God does an even better job at what He does.
With just the events of this past year, it is evident that the Lord is coming soon. It can't be denied or avoided. It's one reason I am excited to go to a country and share my experience with those who have never known or heard of the awesome Savior I serve.
I had a bible study last sabbath with my friend Girean. It was a study on how to give studies. I explained to her that I have found that one's personal testimony can be more of an impact than you think. And then I remembered the deep quote (that should go on a cat poster) from some deep person: "there are some people that only you can reach most effectively with the gospel." It may sound confusing. Read it again.... Pretty much I interpret it that your individual personality is perfect to reach that certain girl who has no faith in anything at all or that older gentleman who has ignored the teachings of Jesus for 20 years. The Lord makes divine appointments and sends us to reach those certain people. That certain someone. It's exciting. The plans the Lord has for us are astounding. We just have to be willing and ready to follow them. And so as I exist in the "in between time" I think about those people that the Lord is going to send my way: to say hey to, to hug, to listen to, to just be there for. I know there is much ahead. I'm just waiting for Him to send me off. And my roommate John is watching a documentary on birds in his onesie....
