Jesus Take the Wheel

I know the phrase has been utterly destroyed and overused since Carrie Underwood wrote her well meaning song but it is the best way I can think of to describe how I'm feeling right now. Doors have been opening right and left for me recently and they line up really well with each other, and it seems too good to be true.
There is not a doubt in my mind that God can open doors and that he will do so with joy for those who are walking with him, but right now I'm really in shock over the doors that have swung open in front of me. If you haven't heard or guessed, I'm talking about Ohio University offering me a half ride scholarship. Let me explain why this is so crazy to me: first of all until the USITT conference at the end of March I only vaguely knew this school existed and almost nothing about it. I met Tom Fiocchi who is the head of the props program there while at USITT, he looked at my terrible portfolio and talked with me quite a bit about the school, props, theatre, and the philosophy of the program. I was sold, but of course it was already past the application deadlines and they had already extended their offers for the year. Well, I had to come back a second day for an interview (for the internship I start tomorrow) and miracle of miracles, the person they offered their aid to had decided to go somewhere else. Tom told me to email him my portfolio and he would see what they could do. We emailed a bit, but nothing...Friday afternoon rolls around and I had resigned myself to the fact it just wasn't going to happen and I get an email that practically knocks me over. A HALF RIDE? I didn't even actually apply or any of the things that you are supposed to do!!! So now I have to figure out if this is the path God has for me.
Here is something to consider though, I don't know if you believe in prophesy but I do, I have seen it come to fruition in my friends lives and my family's. Last year, a man named Ed Trout, who is highly regarded in my church as a man of God and a prophet spoke a word over my dad's life and mine, I literally just watched my dad's part come to fruition and this is what he told me God wanted to say to me,

"You're an amazing young lady, not finished with school I see, got little things dangling there and you're just not sure and God says, 'Finish! Get it done, you can do this, and I'll give you success."

That's pretty straight forward. So, maybe I need to get over my practical brain that is looking at my bank account and get on with it. He has a promised land for every one of us, maybe it is time for me to pack up my tent like Abraham and Sarah and set out for the land he has saved for me.
