and praying and praying...this is the point when you have to believe that there is a god and he is watching and he does things for a reason (praying and waiting for the reason)  |

i understand that people dont know what it is like to be a single parent and that there is no way to make anyone understand and i just toddle along and make the best decisions i can and i have done very well thus far for about 5 years my professors kept telling me i should go to this certain grad school and how nice they are there...so I had faith in them because they are my friends and forgot that none of them are single parents and that i have never made a big deal about being one in front of them or told them what i have to do to be one i applied and got in to the grad school with out really looking into it and its awful...they have a very rigid schedule and they are not set up for a commuting single parent...they are set up for well off young women living on campus and it has been total torture trying to adhere to their program and i cant...for instance they keep telling me i have to quit my job ( i will stop there)... so i am in conact with ALL of my academic friends and i am trying to find a way into another program, but i missed all of the deadlines (nov 1)...i am no longer distraught because i have figured out that i have a 3 year emergency span to use for deferment of my loans (i want to and going to withdraw) and I am looking at jobs...its not hopeless, i have a good education and i should be able to get a job(during the week) if it comes to that but its not what was supposed to happen so..... I am praying and praying and praying to that big guy or girl or whatever up there for the right thing to happen...sigh thats where i have been...scrambling for recovery but bad things come in groups and then only nice things happen for a while so...i am due soon |

You have a good attitude, plus you're praying, so everything will turn out great for you. When I got my master's degree, I went to school at night. It was really hard working, going to school, and raising my sons, but it worked. Now that it's over, I wonder how I did it. Is there anyway you can go at night? |

Wow! What determination! You will win because you have such a winning spirit! Remember that there is nothing impossible for God! You have taken the first step. The word says that if you "delight in Him, He will give you the desires of your heart!" He is always faithful to us. I earned a Masters degree with two children as well. I was not a single parent, but had the kids always by myself because my husband was a work-a-holic. I had to use family resources too for babysitting. And even though he worked all of the time, the ends never quite met! But like I said, God is faithful! He will make a way for you if you don't faint! Stay positive. Meditate on his word...its full of promises to you. And know that it is Jesus Christ who loves you and looks out for you and who will always be with you making a way for you to win! - not some boy or girl upstairs! He will never leave or forsake us (those that believe)! Continue to seek the answer. Be diligent. They sometimes sneak up on you! Praying for you! |
