The day has come. Tomorrow I'll be taking the MCAT. I've been so nervous and fearful of this, but studying for it has been a learning experience (not just academically). God has taught me so much about trusting in him and truly relying on him. I have learned that my faith in him should be enough to lean on. Even when I am unsure of the outcome, I can be sure that it is the right one because I have a Heavenly Father who loves me more than I can imagine. I'm part of the greatest love story ever told. There is NO one who loves me more or cares for me more deeply. God is concerned about my fears and worries...even it is the stupid MCAT.
"So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For the Lord your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you." Deuteronomy 31:6 NLT
Like it says in Deuteronomy, God is faithful...so faithful. He will never fail me. I was lying in bed last night listening to the song "Never Let Me Go" (Hillsong United) on my iPod and I was faced with a startling realization...What have I to fear in taking the MCAT? The God who MADE this world has gone before me. He knows the exact questions I will be faced with and he has empowered me with the ability and the knowledge to answer them. Through Christ, we as believers have the same power that conquered the grave. This wasn't so much new to me as that I finally let it sink in...I'm so glad that I serve such a mighty, awesome, powerful, faithful & loving God.
Never Let Me Go
Hillsong United
In the shadows; My spirit weak
Love broke through the darkness and lifted me
And I know you'll never let me go
In the storm in the raging sea
Love conquered the fear and delivered me
And I know you'll never let me go
Oh love in the shadows
Be the light who leads me on
You're love I will follow
Be my guide, Your will be done
Oh Lord
In the arms of the One unseen
Love carried the cross that was meant for me
And I know you'll never let me go
Oh love in the shadows
Be the light who leads me on
You're love I will follow
Be my guide, Your will be done
Oh Lord I surrender, now forever I'll be loved
In the love of the Father, You are faithful You are strong
So hold me now, hold me now, hold me now
Nothing in this life has walked these streets
Love opened my eyes show me what You see
And I know I'll never let You go
"Never Let Me Go" is, without a doubt, my new favorite song. So, tomorrow morning I take the MCAT. I'm trying to rest in God's peace and the fact that he has this under control. Prayers are definitely appreciated! Pray that I would do well, but above all pray that God would be glorified.
Thank you to all those who have been encouraging me and praying for me along the way. It means the world to me. God Bless!
God put this amazing sunset in the sky. He can DEFINITELY take care of the MCAT :-)
