I publicly announced my attempt at the exam, and now I have to publicly announce my failure.
Well this is awkward................


\
Okay, all jokes and attempts to cover my damaged pride aside, I spent a lot of time emotionally preparing and studying for the outcome of my test. However, I think the way I handle the results is what defines my character.
Let's be honest, If I would have passed the test I would have blown up my blog, twitter, and all of my friends phones with words of great success and Yippy, I DID IT! I honestly do not know if I would have taken the time to take a step back and thank Jesus for his provision and constant peace during the couple months of preparing and test taking.
This is a humbling experience.
I was given an opportunity to thank Jesus yesterday, I was either going to say thank you for helping me pass or thank you for having a bigger plan for me than passing this test.
Trying to accept this outcome was not what I wanted, but I did my best, and that's all I can do, right?
Yesterday was a hard day. But I am really thankful for all the people that prayed for me and encouraged me and checked on me, I am thankful for friends that gather around me with hugs, food, and Grey's Anatomy, and I am thankful that Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and all the rest of my days.
I am so proud of your character. Thanks for being my person.
