God is ABLE. God>My SItuation. God is MY WAYMAKER. I need you to READ ALL of This Fam: I was having tension headaches and feelings of anxiety because of this HUGE opportunity I was going to interview for. Being surrounded by fellow Mathematicians made me even more nervous because they have 2-12 pages of the math problem worked out & I only had ONE. Im the only person in my group with a ONE page cut & dry solution. Mi start fret right de suh. (ah dunce me dunce why is only ONE page me have? LOL) In the interview, Im not remembering what SIMPLE words mean. At 1 point, one of the interviewers had to break down a word for me to understand what he was asking...Now yall KNOW me....Talking to people is NOT AN ISSUE For me!!! I work on the radio for goodness sake!!!! Expressing myself has NEVER been a problem. But that day it suure was! I left that interview room thinking I cant believe I just assassinated myself in there. I felt some serious failure pangs that brought me to tears! Called a few friends & they encouraged me. I calmed down a bit. That night (Sunday) I went to church & the pastor started by saying Your dreams are bigger than you. If God gave you the dream, he is responsible for making it come true, just allow him to lead. By now Im feeling anxious again because I KNOW God is talking to me, telling me to relax my skin. So i say Ok God, Im not gonna worry. That didnt last too long tho! Results would be available on Weds, so Monday & Tuesday Im dying on the inside!!!. I started to pray and a SWEET PEACE just came over me. a REASSURING word from God. Without faith its impossible to please me I said God, I want to please you so Im gonna BELIEVE. And everytime, EVERYTIME i started to worry, i repeated those words to myself and remembered that my friends&family were praying for & believing in me. Wednesday morning came & I was really trying not to stalk my email LOL! I still had that peace & I said God, its all about your will. Whatever it is, I accept it. The email came. I opened it. Secretly, Im searching for words like Sorry or Regret so much so, that I skipped over the very first word in the email which was CONGRATULATIONS. That was it. Floodgates flew open. I started BAWLING!!!! Heres what God did for his lil girl: FULL TUITION scholarship towards a MASTERS Degree, SIX(6) FIGURE STIPEND in ADDITION To my SALARY (yes! $XXX,XXX + SALARY) JOB SECURITY, MENTORSHIP, TRAINING and a HOST of other benefits!!! This is the LAST YEAR this organization is offering this particular fellowship. I made it into the LAST cohort of the BEST, highly competitive Math Fellowship in NYC. A couple thousand applied. Less than 100 were shortlisted & interviewed, Approximately 25 candidates were accepted. Now HOW can I NOT shout & praise & Give him ALL the GLORY?? What an AWESOME God!!!! God sent a reminder that when a situation looks dismal and dead to me, HE can SPEAK LIFE into it and TURN it around FOR MY GOOD! This was ALL HIM Fam!!! Dont be LAZY with your faith & the WORK that MUST accompany it. EXERCISE your FAITH. When you dont know where your life is heading, ASK GOD. When you get the answers, LISTEN to GOD. When you receive the direction, FOLLOW GOD. And when it looks IMPOSSIBLE, TRUST GOD. Trust HIM, Trust Him, TRUST HIM!!!!! #Ask#Believe#Work#Receive
