A little different than what I planned...

So I received my acceptance from ASP in Washington D.C. only to find out 3 weeks later that the money I was planning on, could no longer be provided through the school. I was surprisingly not as depressed about this as I thought I would be. It does stink that I will not be in D.C. next semester because I know that is something that I would absolutely love to be doing, but I am sure God knows it is for the better.
I had a phone interview with Riverwoods Christian Center, which is 40 minutes north west of Chicago, on Friday. It was an incredibly stressful day, and at 2:45 I was talking to a man that was asking about my deepest passions and desires, so as you can imagine, while I was stable, tears were flowing. I wasn't sobbing, my words made sense, it was just hard at times. It will not hear back from them until the 26th or 27th, but I would really love to be a part of that ministry this summer. In the mean time, Brad just asked that I would be praying about my position there, and they would do the same. FYI: Riverwoods is a Christian Camp whose sole purpose is to reach out the inner-city youth and teach them about the Lord.
It's just kind of amusing because none of this was what I had planned. I did not want to be here fall semester at all 2 months ago. I wanted so badly to be in DC. I wanted to work in an office this summer so that I could save up money. But really, the idea of being back here at jbc next semester really makes me feel relaxed, and thinking about possibly being at Riverwoods for the summer, well I just love that. Sometimes I think we can convince ourselves that we know what is best for us, but in the end, we have no idea. I am just thrilled that I have a God who will take care of me like that, and who can show me a new perspective.
