About 2 months ago, I found out that I was about 2 points off from passing one of my basic nursing classes. I was frustrated because I always put so much time into studying but it didn't seem to be paying off. When it came to the final I had to make at least a 75 on it to pass the class. I ended up studying 20.5 hours for it and when the result came back, I thought someone had hit me with a huge brick. I got a 73 on the final and missed the passing grade but 1.5 points. I was discouraged at that point and went back to my room and cried. I talked to my mom and dad because I was confused.
I knew that God had called me to nursing and I couldn't understand why God would let me go through all of this for nothing. My mom told me that I needed to trust God because He knew what He was doing. I blew that off, then realized that He obviously does know what He is doing.
Sure enough, I was given the opportunity to take the course over again THIS summer. If I had not been given this opportunity, I would have been held back an entire year, which would have been terrible. Therefore I came back to school and am retaking the class. So far this has been such a blessing because my teacher is using me as a leader. I have thanked God everyday for giving me the opportunity to come back and take this class. I have a feeling something amazing is going to happen this summer.
I will try to keep blogging about my 8 week journey through this class and what God is showing me through all of it.
