WED: Aaron's Staff

Today, is a special day to me...
pretty much, until right now.. (2:20 AM)
I've been struggling to find a path out of military
service in Korea...

I pretty much talked to all the representative that
Korean Petagon (병부청) has to offer, regarding
extention of stay for students like me...

So.. althought it took me couple of days to find out
which of the 20 different methods of filing application
was more applicable to me, I realized that
the way I talk to those representatives, and the way
I understand what the application paper meant..
gave me different results as to if I can stay in US
or not...

Well ~ I guess the one method that best applies to me
is to consider my 'residential stay' in Romania with my parents..
and to consider myself, a student to United States... while
my residency is kept in Romanis..

It kind of sounds like I've made up my own status, but
that's the last chance I have for this ..

Seeing God choose Aaron's staff, only gave me this thought..
"I hope that God will choose my staff" (application
and I hope that God will do his miracle as this is being passed
through many people that will look over and consider my stay in US..

Sometimes, life is beyond the NORM..
and that's when we need the HAND OF GOD that can
reach beyond the NORM..
Is it the sovereinty of God? or it is my effort and faith that creates
path and result in my life? I think it's both..

There is another passage that came to my mind that gives me comfort these days..
"You have granted him the desire of his heart and have not withheld the request of his lips."
Psalms 21:2

What we know is that God knows and understands our heart...
There is great comfort in knowing this..
God !! You do your thing !! You best about me and my path..
