Mid May Musings

Ok, so these aren't really musings. But it's mid may. And it's been a while

In case you didn't hear, I took the advice of my neighbor Max and decided to stay in Berkeley for my master's degree. This was only slightly due to the fact that I could more likely ride a tiger at Berk than Stanford.

In reality... after much, much, much contemplation and praying, the night of April 14th I went to sleep leaning towards sending in my acceptance to Stanford (the deadline was the 15th). However, that night before going to sleep, I said one last prayer asking God to show me where He wanted me to be. As if... I would wake up and the answer would be there.

So the next morning, I woke up, and didn't feel anything new. I then checked my email, and saw an email from Professor Stacey, the admissions officer for my program. Berkeley was offering my a 10,000 scholarship for my grad school. With that email, I realized both that I could attend Berkeley without needing any loans, and also that God had answered my prayers. I'm excited to see what God has in store for me this next year.

It's great to see that our God is faithful to answer prayer. While often it's unseen, I give thanks that His answer was so clear to me this time.

More to come later
