I completed my test for admission to the Ph.D. program at Southern Seminary yesterday. A special thanks to all who prayed for me. If you want some specific details, email me and I'll be glad to share them.
As I was leaving Louisville yesterday to return to Savannah to see my family and get another load of stuff to move up, rumors were growing about a gas price hike and a gas shortage. Sure enough, gas prices jumped 50 cents per gallon in some places. While trying to trust God to sell our house and give us what we need to live on in Louisville, not to mention pulling a trailer back and forth to Kentucky, this additional gas hike was shaking our faith a little (ok at times a lot!). Amanda and I had a talk this morning about our worries. I came to the office to pack up some books and checked my email. One of the subject lines read "You won!" and was from a name I did not recognize. I almost deleted it, thinking it was a scam. But I checked it just to make sure . . .
Yesterday the Seminary hosted a job fair. I went in and looked around, picked up a couple brochures and started to leave. At the exit there was a feedback survey. Those who returned the survey were entered to win a $50 gas card or an Ipod Shuffle. And since we didn't need an IPod Shuffle . . . that's right! The email was from the organizers of the job fair saying I had won the gas card! While it is a small thing, it is still a God thing. It is just like our God to give us the financial and spiritual provisions we need to do what He calls us to do! Be blessed and trust Him today!
