The funds are here.

It has been two years since I graduated from my massage therapy school, and I am finally getting my licensing. Took long enough, didn't it? But my passion for it never died. It's a shame how money can be the only thing holding us back from something with potential.
When we moved to California, we lived off of school loans, lived in a tiny thousand dollar a month studio, and thus, couldn't save money, barely getting by. The next year, has gone by in a whirl where it had still been a struggle to save, having only one income from a part time job. Now that Matt has found a great job and is working full time, we are on our way.

Sometimes it is difficult for me to not want all the expectations newlyweds have; a house, stable income, etc. But marrying young, we have had to make sacrifices. How can I expect so much when all of our needs have been met so greatly because of our family. They care for us so deeply with their generosity, love,  and guidance. In times that I struggle with wanting so much and expecting more, I have to remember we are being cared for; the Lord has a plan for us. We may not be living in the ideal place, but the Lord has a plan for us; His timing is perfect. And that is what I have been thinking about this past week. Waiting two years to get my licensing has been hard. I've felt like I've lost time in learning more as a therapist, but yet I feel like I've gained so much growth and knowledge that has kept me going, and will enable me to be successful in my therapies.


The funds are here, due to some earned cash, but mostly by my family. I am very thankful.
All I need to do is renew my insurance, get my finger prints, turn in paper work and pay these people.

And then? Imma ready.
