Impossible....

It doesn’t matter what you’ve heard 

Impossible is not a word 

It’s just a reason for someone not to try 

Everybody’s scared to death 

When they decide to take that step 

Out on the water 

It’ll be alright 

Life is so much more 

Than what your eyes are seeing 

You will find your way 

If you keep believing 

-What Faith Can Do [Kutless]

It's funny the things that hold us back, a simple 10 letter word....IMPOSSIBLE. How many times does this word stop us from doing what we really want/need to do? How many times have you heard "Oh my gosh, I can't do that, that'd be impossible!" 

I've come to the conclusion that I am my biggest obstacle. So many times what's holding me back, is me! I recently took my State Board Practical and my NET (Nursing Entrance Test) both of which where pretty easy, but of course 1-2 weeks before I was panicking and freaking out because I didn't think I'd be able to pass them, even though I KNOW the stuff. Its funny how we can hype ourselves up so much to the point where we think we can't do anything. A lot of times we do that because we're relying on our own strength to get us through....but when we stop and breath we realize it's all going to be ok. Like in the lyrics posted above, it says "Life is so much more than what your eyes are seeing" and it's so true! Sometimes God just asks us to step out in faith, sometimes we can't see the end results and it may seem like a stupid or impossible idea, but if we just realize that God knows what he's doing, then it'll all work out! 

(BTW: I received the results for my NET, I got a 91 in the Math and a 73 in Reading [I just needed at least a 54 in each to apply for Nursing school] my State Board Practical I have not gotten the results back yet but am pretty sure I passed :]) 

Well everyone has been wanting to see a picture of my dog Zoey, so here she is:

Well I'm still on the hunt for a job..so far I've filled out 10 different applications for 15 different positions, and tomorrow I'm going back out looking again. Something is bound to turn up :)

Until next time...
