Tonight I find myself speechless, if you can imagine that. I've been checking the Iliff Admissions Website daily to see if there was any update - nothing! Last night as I gathered with some very dear friends and former co-workers I found myself joyful that they had found something better. Sadly, I miss them! As I drove home in time to put Jaida to bed I realized that I was days away from knowing if there was a light at the end of the tunnel for me.
After a beautiful day with my family I sat down one more time to check on my status - yes I can be obessive that way. But something was different. My status was no longer 'file in review since 10/28/09". My status read 'Admitted 11/6/09'. What? I believe I was just admitted to Iliff School of Theology to pursue my Masters of Divinity. I can't even process right now. If you've read my blog then you've gone along on this journey with me and understand what it's taken to get me, us, to this point. God knows we have no idea what is in store for us going forward. But the most beautiful thing is that Kandis, Jaida and I will be on this journey together.
Thank you God for believing in me. Thank you for choosing me, for choosing my family and for choosing Kandis and Jaida. We are humbled by your call. I never doubted that you have called me to ministry but I denied it mostly by denying myself. Hard to believe it's taken this long to accept myself for exactly who I am and in doing so, accepting your call.
Please continue to give us the courage, faith and guidance.
