To Whom Else Have We To Go?

BUT nevertheless, God has been so faithful, not that He could be anything but completely faithful, and I am still pressing along in nursing school! I will be all graduated up in December, is the hope. Right now we are at Dell Children’s hospital, which I really like, but not sure I would ever want to work there. The kids are so precious, though, I am on the cancer unit. I have learned so much. It is such a neat thing learning something in class and then actually seeing it at the hospital. Makes the learning experience reality. For instance, we have been learning about gastroceles (I am pretty sure that is the name), where the baby is born with the intestines on the outside of the stomach cavity and protrude out through the skin. So basically a large portion of their small intestines are sitting on top of their stomach. And one of the babies I got to care for today actually has that and so I got to see how they treat that. Its absolutely amazing.

I am still keeping Jesus first always. He is due all Glory and all Honor because He came to rescue me while I was totally dead and already condemned (John 3)!! What a merciful God!!! I joined a church about nine months ago called Church of the Living Water up in Pflugerville and I really, really like it. Not only do I love the people there, but the Word is solid and I am challenged and disciplined in a way I have never experienced and my Father knew that is exactly what this sister needs!! Sho nuff. I have made friends there, which is great. Most of them are single mothers, so that is an interesting dynamic and I am just asking Jesus to show me exactly how to encourage them, you know? I cannot relate and thats why I need His wisdom. There is a brother at the church I have actually been interested in getting to know ever since I started going there. However, I am so old-fashioned and I could not just go up to him and flirt or whatever like other women do with men they are interested in. Way old-fashioned. I am like the man is supposed to be the safari hunter, not the girl. Alot of people tell me today though, “honey, things have changed and today you have just got to go up to him and ask him out because he is not asking you” and I am like whatever maybe that is for some girls but it is not me. Anyways, if a man wants a woman bad enough he will go after her. I am keeping humble with my eyes on Jesus. That is what this little mama is gon’ DO.
I still have about an hour or so of homework to do and some time with the Lord before bed. Tomorrow is a big day and I meet with the tutor for some help with this upcoming test.
