So PA school it is! Proverbs 16:33 (NASB)

Proverbs 16:33 (NASB) says, "The lot is cast into the lap, But it's every decision is from the Lord." My life has been an exact replica of that verse. Though it's been tough to trust the Lord's sovereingty in things at times, it's ultimately made me have to trust in Him more. Life has seemed so random at points but after reading this verse again I know that it's not. Our Lord knows what's best for all of us. With that said, I feel that the Lord is directing me toward going for PA school and hopefully a Master's degree with it. I like the humanities and psychology feel of the Physician's assistant program better than that of a Physician. I find great enjoyment in talking to people, learning about them, and determining how they could use my help. Anyway, so that's what's new for now I guess. I figured I'd list all the PA schools I'd like to apply for and we'll see where the Lord leads from there:

1) Baylor College of Medicine (Houston, TX)
2) Arizona School of Health Sciences (Mesa, AZ)
3) University of Iowa (Iowa City, IA)
4) Yale University (New Haven, CT)
5) Seton Hall University (South Orange, NJ)
6) University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center--Dallas (Dallas, TX)

Well, I guess that's the top 6. We'll see how the Lord leads. At this point in my life I have to take it one day, one breath, one moment at a time. I do trust that however it turns out God will provide for the best. Whatever He can use for His purposes. That's what life is all about.
