They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness, O Lord!

For my devotional time tonight, I thought I'd do something a bit different.

Looking over the classes I needed to take in order to attain a Biotechnology minor, I found that I'd overlooked some very important requirements. Either they had changed, or I just didn't pay attention the past few times I've looked at the criteria. I was so frustrated, feeling completely hopeless and discouraged. At the time, I was listening to music on itunes - songs I haven't listened to in months because of my new desire (since the start of this year) to listen to KLOVE nonstop.

Well, the song “All This Time” by Britt Nicole came on. The host then proceeded to say, “If you’ve ever gone home and sat on your bed and cried .. or even when you were driving home and you just let the tears out .. this song is for you.” Then he shared the verse below:

And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 1 Peter 5:10

I just know it was played for me. There are no coincidences. I know that God is watching over me, and He won't let me stumble and fall. I do have to try harder, but reaching this goal won't be impossible with His help.
