This past summer I worked at a Christian Adventure Camp (Camp Eagle). It was the most fun, hot and rewarding summer I have had in my entire life. I wouldn't have traded the relationships I formed there for anything else, it was and still is truly encouraging to my life.
Throughout the summer I learned what it meant to genuinely trust and surrender to the Lord. I vowed (again with the self-talk vows) to let go of financial worry and lean on He who has my best intention in mind. I prayed and I prayed this summer to take that burden money has been and make it meaningless to me.
This is the present turn that constant prayer is making now:
I have recently been accepted into Texas A&M University as a Fightin' Texas Aggie transfer student (another story of the Lord's amazing answers to a long-term prayer) and as many know, college is not a cheap expedition nor is Texas A&M a cheap school.
Today, the Lord answered another prayer.
I logged into the Howdy portal for my new University to check my financial aid status. I waited forever for the page to load when it finally popped up. I had graciously been awarded $8,000 in "gift aid" for being in good academic standing, this award will completely cover tuition, rent and have a little extra for the upcoming semester.
I am thankful today and always, for ways that He silently hears us and makes things happen.
HE IS GOOD!
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him.
Psalm 37:7
