Peace in the Waiting

When I first decided to go to school to become a dentist I was a little worried. I am in no means a genius and in no means qualified to become a dentist. However, after praying for months and months about my future school and career, I had a firm answer that God wanted me to be a dentist. I have done all the prerequisites, taken all the tests, done the community service and job shadowing. I've done all the pre-dental clubs and volunteering. When it came to apply I was worried. My science and math GPA was lower than most schools would like, I had a good, but not great DAT score, and I didn't have job experience in a dental office. All of these things I felt were negative aspects to my application and could keep me out of dental school.
I had calculated and weighed all these different things and had an idea of where my GPA sat and my overall application strength. After I turned in my application the website calculated my science and math GPA and it was higher than I thought. Also, I earned very good grades in organic chemistry II this summer after having a horrible experience with my organic I class. Then, later I found out that my grade appeal for organic I was approved and my grade would be changed to a higher grade. Then I received two interviews very quick and I was thinking wow, this is moving fast and going better than I could have imagined. I wondered why everything was going my way.
I am doing the Gideon study by Priscilla Shirer and just finished the 5th week. The theme of the study is your weakness, God's strength. I was reminded that God doesn't call us to do everything, but to do what He asks and He will take care of the rest. This is exactly what God has done in my journey to dental school. I've done my best and what He has asked, and He has stepped in and done His part. Obedience is key. God doesn't just give us the things He calls us to, but calls us to work with Him and to reach for His path even when it seems impossible. It may look impossible, but God will step in when we've reached the point of total dependence on His power, grace, and victory. God is the reason for my success so far in the dental school application process.
I know God will put me exactly where He wants me to be. I am not worried, waiting until 12/2 to hear where I get accepted. I know God has great plans and as long as I continue to obey Him, His path for my life will be made clear.
