Look Up!

I had a moment of realization yesterday when I was just doubting myself because the likelihood of passing this Pathophysiology class seems slim. I know there are many options to go to if one plan doesn’t work out, but I just felt tired of the going back and forth between schools, I mean I’m literally so close yet so far. I was putting God in a box and began to create a limit as to what he was actually capable of doing. I started doubting the plans that he had for me. I started questioning what it was that he wanted me to be doing because it obviously seemed like nursing wasn’t going to ever work out. And I was already giving up and telling myself I was going to fail this class when there’s still 3 more exams to take and 3 more quizzes to take. My mom had talked with me and told me to look back at my blogs and what I’ve written this far about not giving up and remembering that God has plans to prosper us and to give us hope and a future! I know it’s hard to see the bigger picture when you are only allowing yourself to see one part...but remind yourself that God is working on your behalf. I doubted God and I tripped over my faith but that’s when God reminded “Look Up Child”. Things may not be working out in my favor right now, or at least that’s what it seems like but I have to remind myself that God is God. He is bigger than any circumstance, bigger than any fear, bigger than any worry...God is God. I know it may be hard to have faith when things aren’t going your way but don’t stop and just throw in the towel. Think of life like an obstacle course. There are going to be things that you have to get through before you get to the end. Sometimes these obstacles are easy and some of them really require you to take your time or to pause a bit and see the fastest way to get through but the result in the end remains the same...you eventually finish. God doesn’t want you to give up, you have a race to win...and you will win...because Philippians 4:13 says “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” When life gets you down..move forward and look up because there’s a God out there and he will work things out for your good. Things may not be going the way you planned but they are going the way God planned. God believes that you can do this and you need to believe in yourself that you can too! You may finish the obstacle course slower than others but you reach the end eventually and that’s okay! Remind yourself every day that “You can do this because with God all things are possible!”♥️
