Dear Family,
Today I was accepted into Liberty University College of Osteopathic Medicine for the fall of 2015. It appears that there is a future in medicine for me after all. It is as the Lord has planned it.
I am still awaiting back from around fifteen schools to determine whether or not Virginia will be my final destination for studying and it would be nice to remain in california (three schools here still havn't accepted/rejected me yet) but I Know its all in accordance with God's plan and will.
My biggest fear during these next years will be that my studies will draw me away too much from my time with God. My ability to study and pursue Him. I pray that He will always give me time to meditate and dwell upon His Word, even in medical school.
I feel that if I do end up somewhere in Virginia, I will be much nearer to you all and that alone will give me the ability to pursue Him as I could spend some time with brothers and sisters in Christ growing and learning.
I'll keep you all posted if any other school's get back to me with interview offers or decisions.
God bless and thank you for the continued prayer and support. Please pray the Lord don't let go of me, even in medschool. It would be a most tragic thing. These things are all dung compared to Christ. It is exactly as Paul spoke it. I know.. its ironic I realize this all now after getting what I wanted. I told Jesse that if I get through all this, I will open a small practice, or, treat the brethren, brothers and sisters in Christ--Something small where I could still have plenty of time to continue to grow and study in Christ and not be consumed by the world.
Love in Christ,
Alex
