One thing that I have had to learn since moving away for college is, I cannot run my life on my own, God has to be the one in charge. God is a mighty god and he will bless you when you let him be the light in your life. When I moved here I needed a car. The day I moved to Arkansas on June 6, God led the Edwards family into my life. They are a loving family that go to the church that I am at now, Clearwater Missionary Baptist Church. They not only had a car for me but they gave it to me for free!! I was blown away. The only way something like that could have happened was if God was in it. And God was! That was just one sign that showed me that I was on the right path God has set for me. The summer was coming to an end and I realized with school approaching I needed a job. There were many places for me to look but I did not know where to start. So I told myself I would wait till the weekend was over and I would start looking the next week. That sunday God brought a wonderfuly lady into my life, to whom we are really good friends to this day. Her name is Mandy; that sunday she came up to me and ask if I was looking for a job, and if I was there was an opening at the job she worked at. It was a Chiropractors Office. She said it was a part time job and that they would be very flexible with my school schedule. I thought to myself you have got to be kidding me, I was just about to start job hunting and this lady just by chance came to me and asked me about if I was looking for a job. All I could think and say was, "Thank you Lord!" I now work at Chiropractic Care Clinic in Searcy, AR. My first day was July 15, 2009.
God has shown me that if I will just let him take control of my life, he will lead me in the right direction and will also let his blessing rain upon me.
"God will never leave me, nor forsake me" Hebrews 13:5

I am so proud of you Baby! I love that you're journaling all the lessons God is teaching you. This first year away from home is probably going to be the hardest, and yet, you're depending upon Jesus, just like we're supposed to. You are a good reminder to me that I need to trust God completely and for every single thing. Thank you for being obedient to the Lord! I love you, my favorite daughter!
