Jehovah-Jireh

Jehovah-Jireh ... the LORD will provide!
I have definitely seen Him at work providing for me in the last couple of weeks:

• Leading up to my defense I was overwhelmed by the support and encouragement I had from the Body!
• Finances have been tight this month, but He has provided just enough when necessary.
• Financial support for my trip is hovering at 50%! Praise God for moving in the generous hearts of my friends and family members!
• He provided an extra day to chill with my boyfriend and parents this last weekend due to weather delays.
• He provided a phone with international sim-card capabilities through a friend.

He truly sustains and provides all we need. Praise His Name!

I'm a Master!

I did it! It's over! I passed by Masters' defense!
Ok, well, actually WE did it. I, the Holy Spirit living inside of me, my parents who have assisted me financially, my local community who have been so encouraging, my roommate who walked through it all with me second hand, and the many fellow graduate students who trudged threw assignments along with me. WE did it! And I couldn't have done it without you all!
Lord, thank you that we are not meant to do life alone!
"The Lord is my strength and my song; He has given my victory!
   This is my God and I will praise Him."    ~Ex. 15:2
