School is in session, AGAIN!!! && boy have my plans changed. For the most part they have changed in a very positive way but then again they seem discouraging at the same time. Most of you that know me or have met me in the past 4 or 5 years know that my major plan for college was Speech Pathology & that i was planning to attend Alabama A&M starting this Fall*2009.
After graduation from NACC in May*2009, those plans were still in progress. Several visits to A&M seemed almost impossible but i thought deep down that if it was God's plan, then all of the visits would fall into place and i would find everything out that i would need to. Finally, the day of registration, my plans seemed to fall & crash down into a thick huge pile all around me!! WHY!!? I find out that my major was going to take 5 more years after already having 2 years of college && other information that did not help matters. I knew at that point, God did not allow this to work out for a reason. A reason i was not sure of but you just know when God wants something to happen & when He doesn't.
So after a few weeks of praying, I felt the pull to go back to northeast. After meeting several of my advisors from northeast & my sponsors thru scholarships, I decided that my best choice would be to attend northeast until i knew what God wanted me to do. With that, I registered for northeast knowing either i would go into Nursing or Special education. Though nursing sounded the best to me, I ended up choosing Special Education.
Helping others has always been a passion of mine. No matter how big or small the situation, i have always went into the situtaion knowing that GOd was on my side no matter what. I went into situations regarding others the same way. I knew that with God on my side, I could help others accomplish their dreams! Well dreams start with a good education & good loving. That is what i strive to show my students (kids) everyday...the love from me which comes from none other than Jesus Christ Himself && a great education. Thru educating younger kids, K-2, I will be able to further my dream that i've had as a little girl...to help those that no one else will reach out too; those that need that extra love & patience.
God has prepared me for this position ever since i was a little blonde long-haired big green eyed girl with only hopes & dreams of a bright future. I knew nothing about heart ache or pain except from a bruised knee or scraped elbow from which i had gotten from playing to rough with my little brother. Now as a short blonde haired ( blonde that seems to be getting darker by day) one green one brown eyed young lady with hope from her Savior that sometimes is hard to find & dreams of peace & love that she can show those around her, the heart aches i've found, have only led me closer & more passionate to Christ. These hurts will allow me to cope with those hurting around me. Those that might one day be sitting in front of me as a little child with big hopes & dreams but no heart aches or then those that might be sitting in the very back of the classroom whom as a little child, has already experince pain that which i have experienced as an adult. I only pray now that God gives me the correct word to speak into those little lives that are so very precious to Him. Lives that will one day grow up just like me & will look back at their dreams and be able to say, " I have lived my dreams!"
It will be such an amazing feeling to know, my God cared so much about my dreams that He allowed me to help build someone elses!! I can not wait to teach my first lesson, give my first speech, laugh at my first class clown, & smile my first bigg smile knowing God knew a long time ago that a long blonde haired, big green eyed little girl would be sitting in front of special needs children sharing her heart with them & impacting their dreams. =))
With Love & Peace from God, Kc
