Well... I now know what it feels like to be a studying person. I've never been the type who spends hours studying every other night, but this week I spent about 15 hours studying for my exam today... only to feel like I should have studied more. But, regardless of test scores, (which I have to wait a week for... gah!) life goes on. Sometimes we just have to do all that we can and then put our trust in the Lord that he will take care of the rest. Actually, I have to do that ALL the time. I am amazed at how active the Lord's hand is in my life, everyday. If you've read my previous blog entries, you probably get the idea that I have a lot on my plate right now. I'm an independent (for the most part) girl who's trying to juggle work and 16 credits of school at the same time and I can never quite seem to find that extra 5 hours a day that I need in order to get everything done. But, I do the best that I can without risking my health too much and the rest of the time I have to trust that the Lord knows what's being demanded of me and that I'm doing my best and he'll bless me for that. It's taken me a long time to learn to completely trust in Him, because it is in my nature to try and be in control of my own life - and to try and do everything myself. But I've realized that with the Lord's help, I'm much more successful. It's good to have no doubt that when you are living your life right and doing the best you can, the Lord keeps the blessings flowing. Somehow, everything always works together for my good.
And now I'm so excited for Sunday. My favorite day of the week because I don't have to think about school!

Reading your blogs is very inspiring Raechel (sometimes haha). That's amazing how dedicated you are to school and work and how you are willing to sacrifice many of the things you want right now for the things that are most important. It makes me want to get off my lazy arse and do more with my life. Thank you!
