His timing is always Perfect!

     Isn't it just funny how certain things happen when you least expect it. This year has been filled with a lot of moments I never thought would happen, one of which just happened last night...
     Never in a million years did I expect to get a friend request from my suitemate from freshman year after everything that had happened between us and all the hurt feelings on both of our parts. After getting defriended I was crushed that that person was no longer in my life and that I wouldn't be able to keep up with what was going on in her life. I chalked it up to she no longer wanted me in her life and therefore I said I no longer wanted her in mine. At the time I was feeling all these hurt emotions because I didn't know what I had done to deserve them so when I got that friend request I was shocked. Thirty minutes later I got the facebook message that would leave me speechless. 
     We both handled certain situations in the wrong way and it ended up hurting our friendship, which I have truly missed this past year. Tonight the first step was taken on her part to try and reconnect and work back to being friends. A simple facebook chat has brought us back to talking. Funny how one little pop up message can make your heart jump. 
     Basically what I am trying to get at is the Lord has some interesting timing. He chose tonight after all this time to have us start talking again. I don't know if it's because we're both in the right place to be able to look at what we've been through and be mature about the situation and move on or what. We will never know why He chooses to do the things he does. It's a scary thing but you just have to have trust in Him. This has been a difficult thing for me to grasp this past year what with applying to pharmacy school and trying to figure out what my next step in college will be if pharmacy isn't meant to be.
     There is a reason He chose to put me on the waiting list for pharmacy school my first time applying, a reason He chose for me to go to Greek Summit summer after my sophomore year, and there is a reason He placed it on my suitemate's heart to facebook chat me tonight.
     I believe 100% that everything happens for a reason! Now it just comes down to me understanding that everything that happens is all about God's plan for my life. HE is the reason all things happen when they do. His timing of certain things may be difficult to understand but I just need to remember He has a plan for my life and no matter what I do I cannot control it or change its outcome.
