Leaving (Finally)

I finally get to leave for Winnipeg in the morning. However, I am leaving in conditions that I didn't think I would be leaving in. First of all, my car is still broke. Now, I know this doesn't come as a surprise to many of you, but I really do like my car and the fact that I have to go to Winnipeg with a different vehicle than my own doesn't make me very happy. BUT I am thankful that I do have a car to use until my car can be brought to me in Winnipeg in a few weeks time. Secondly, the bank didn't turn out like I had anticipated and only partial funds have come through for my year. This means that things could get very tight for me financially in the next little while. However, while i was in the middle of crying and feeling more than a little bit sorry for myself, my parents reminded me that God has brought me through so much in the last 2 years with everything, that He is not going to leave me to hang out to dry through this. I know God is more than likely trying to teach me a lesson because of this, I just don't know what it is yet. Please pray that I will find a part time job in the city that would work alongside my more than inconvienent class schedule (a lot of late afternoon to evening classes). So that is what has gone in my life today. It was a day that at times i wished i could crawl into bed and start over, but I wouldn't have gotten to see my friend Katie this afternoon if I hadn't left, and that was a blessing to me. SO the day had its downs, but it also had its ups. Now I just need to learn to put my stress into God's hands 100% and learn that it is okay to not have all your plans neatly lined up in a row. Easier said than done, but that is what growing in faith is all about.
