MY school. HOW did I end up HERE? If you follow me on any social media platform you have probably noticed that since being home from the race I have relocated from Canton to Lubbock, TX. I started college at Texas Tech University this semester. Never, in a million years, would I have ever put myself here. But wow, He is so good to me. As many of you know, after the race I had intentions of going to Liberty University this year. However, as much as I begged, pleaded, and cried out that was simply not where the Lord wanted me. Just a few weeks before classes for the fall started I was lost. What in the world was I going to do?! I prayed and prayed for the Lord to make a way, His way. Finally, I found myself taking classes at Tyler Junior College in Tyler, TX last semester. A good semester, but a hard one. I found good people, but yet I also felt lonely at times. I let the Lord ride the back burner. I knew that I was making him less and less of a priority as my world slipped back into what was “normal” post coming home from the race. ‘Is this really all the Lord has for me this year?’ I thought. Boy, was I in for a surprise?
Flash forward to this semester, spring 2019. I transferred and began making a life here in Lubbock, TX. I was scared, as you can imagine. But especially since I knew about 7 people in this entire city before coming here. Upon making this decision, I prayed and PLEADED for the Lord to make Gospel Community for me here. I prayed the Lord to use me. I prayed the Lord help me find people who are just as passionate about the Gospel as I am. I didn’t lower my expectations for this in any regard. I have began going to an amazing church called Redeemer, who is so passionate about the nations. As well as that, I just finished rushing a christian fraternity on campus called BYX (Brothers Under Christ) where I have found people who are so passionate about spreading the Gospel to young men on campus. Overall, I have found amazing people here and life has been just so much fun. Jesus is here. I just simply cannot believe my life.
Please pray for me as the semester continues. For my studies as well, that this college education would be glorying to the Lord.
