Studying... or supposed to be...

I am sitting in Borders trying to study for my comprehensive exam that is coming up WAY too soon. I am fearful that I am way underprepared. I am taking a break because I have been reading about adiministration in higher ed. for a couple of hours now. It is crazy to think that I will be done with school in December (as long as I pass my exam). I have been in school for longer than I wanted to be when I started this program. Changing jobs last year made me have to slow down. Sometimes it is discouraging to think it has taken me this long, but other times I am just thankful that I have made it to the end regagrdless of time. I am ready to know where I am going to be and what I am going to be doing when I finish. I want so badly to find a job in higher ed. again, I just don't know if that will be possible in January.

I know that the Lord has placed me where I am for a reason. However, I often question why this path and not the one I thought I had in mind. I know that in His infinite wisdom, He knows why, but I want to know too. Sometimes I feel like I am in limbo waiting for things to happen. Perhaps my lesson in this is to as Debbie posted, "Wait on the Lord..." Man, that is hard. Don't get me wrong, I am happy and content in my life, I am just restless.

Now that I have rambled and written a jumbled mess, I should get back to studying. I am not proofreading... keep in mind... my mind is mush because I have been reading most of the day.
