Sorry about the recent venting.

Oh man, I knew that I would be on the lower scale of the applicants but it was so humbling to find out exactly how much less competitve I am for grad school. From the 4 schools, looks like there's only a chance from 2 of them.
Yet I was encouraged tonight to follow my passion because it's not a mistake or coincidence that I am passionate about the things that I am. We were talking about passions in the context of small groups. But similarly...if this IS my passion. And I believe it is, then what reason do I have in doubting God to bring me there? Even if it means not getting in right away.
This song has really stuck with me these couple of days.
I heard it on sunday at Youngnak...and again at VCF tonite.
Still
(Reuben Morgan)
Hide me now
Under your wings
Cover me
Within your mighty hand.
When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with you above the storm
Father you are King over the flood
I will be still and know you are God
Find rest my soul
In Christ alone
Know His power
In quietness and trust
"For who makes you different from anyone else? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not?"
1 Cor 4:7
I received.
