In Highschool I did not

have the highest GPA.

School was never easy

for me academically or

mentally.


I struggled making

friends at times and

always felt one step behind

the class as a whole academically.


As I approached the end

to my senior year, I was

very doubtful and not

confident in anything

about myself.


I feared I would not

get into a college.


My dream college was

Liberty University. Of course

I wanted to go because of

the spiritual mechanism, but

for other things too.


Though this was my dream,

it was not God's. Or at least

that is what I thought.


I placed my desire and

dreams in God's hands.

I wanted to go to Liberty,

but I wanted to do

God's will for my life.

The doors to Liberty got

closed and I was devastated.


I began my college life

at a small college in North

Carolina, Gardner Webb

University. Yet after a year,

I felt something missing.

I did not grow much spiritually,

academically or make a lot of

friends.


A good friend of mine

encouraged me to apply to

Liberty again, but I was

hesitant and bitter.


I worked up the courage

and applied again. When I

opened the acceptance

letter I never felt God's love

so close.


What dream do you need to give God?
