I spent a few hours last night looking at PhD programs across the country. To say I'm excited is a bit of an understatement. I feel as if I am moving forward in a big way. There is one program that I really have my heart set on.
Anyways, I just came across part of a letter I had written to myself a few months ago.
"Keep running. Keep walking. Keep fighting and getting through another day. Always remember that you are never alone. No matter what the world tells you. No matter what the enemy tells you. Keep focused on the truth. The truth that can be found in God and the truth of your life...He stood beside you and He will always stand beside you."
The strange part is that I wrote this letter in February, while I was paranoid and psychotic. I think it just goes to show that no matter how low you get, God is always there, showing you the way.
I believe that God is always there with me, helping me through every twist and turn that comes my way. I believe that He has lifted me up on many occasions in my life and given me the strength to move forward. I believe He is guiding me as I move forward into the future, helping me decide which programs to apply to.
I don't believe in a God who is far away in the sky. I believe in a powerful God who stands beside me, waiting to pick me up if I fall. I believe in a loving God who forgives my mistakes and binds my wounds if I fall. I believe in a God who gives us a new start after we fail.
I want to share what God is teaching me through the journey of life. I believe that life is ultimately about taking the obstacles in your way, overcoming them and transforming them into something beautiful. I currently live with Schizoaffective disorder (schizophrenia and bipolar disorder), Autism and PTSD.
