God does it. He surely does.
I'm going to be studying under Todd Lockwood for 3 months. A one on one mentorship in a small class.
A long time ago when in high school, I continuously gave up on my dreams. I had a good friend there to encourage me through those hard times. Later after I graduated high school I had hard times. I didn't know where to go or if I could really do it, and fell into a depression of sorts. A while later, when I returned to church, my life started straightening out. I decided I would give up my dream of being a professional artist to God, and if He gave it to me, or didn't, I'd be happy.
So this morning when I learned about this opportunity, I cried. I cried for a few hours, believing I couldn't do it. Why had God shown me this and not made it possible? But, then I realized, I was giving up before I really found out if I could or could not do it! I prayed a while, and opened my Bible. Normally I'd know where to look, but in the middle of bawling my eyes out, I decided to just open it and see what it would open to.
Psalm 30
About Dramatic Deliverance
I cried harder =')
I was so happy that God had brought me through all those things and was going to give me my dream.
People, friends, family; Give everything to God, He knows what's best and right.

Thank you ^^
It is amazing how, when we really and truly surrender our lives and our desires to Him, He often fulfills them in amazing ways that we never would have foreseen, working and trying under our own effort. And, in my own life, I have seen that when I give Him my dreams, even when God doesn't give me what I thought I wanted - in fact, when He gives me something that I would have previously thought I would HATE - the result turns out to be far better than I could have imagined.
Amen! It's a lot of encouragement knowing others have been there too.
Thanks so much
