Wow.  Eventful morning.  I was planning on signing on here this morning to complain and vent about a just barely missing having a major car accident (be the grace of God) on an exit ramp off of I30 this morning.  I was upset and called Kyle crying and telling him how much I hate being on the road for nearly 2 hrs every day because careless, reckless people have nearly killed me about 5 times in the last 3 days.  That's a little unnerving.  At the end of our conversation he says "Well I hope your day gets better, and I'll pray for you."
Well it did. 
Not even 5 minutes later I was in my boss' office and she was complimenting me on my performance this summer.  I mean she said some of the nicest and most encouraging things I've ever heard, especially from a non-family member.  I am still completely floored.  She told me that the work I've produced this summer is easily graduate-level or better and that if I chose to go to medical school at UNTHSC she will do everything in her power to give me a job so I can work throughout all 4 years of school.  She also offered me a job for next summer saying no matter what she will always find money to fund me (we're non-profit and work out of grants).  What a blessing this job has been!  I am so thankful for my wonderful boss and that God has placed me in the most amazing work enviornment I could ever ask for.  I am surrounded by wonderful Chrisitan women who are truly exceptional at what they do.  How many people (that work in a non-christian field/faith based organization) can say that everyone they work with is in love with God and live their lives for him on a daily basis?  I can!  Praise be to Him because He hit me with the best ton of bricks this morning and said "hey there little miss, I know what I'm doing, I'm still working in your life, chill out about the stupid stuff because I have it all under control. Didn't you know it was me guiding your vehicle out of that wreck? Didn't you know I would take care of your school and career because you are going to do great works for me?  Come on now Lauren, don't forget about me."
