EXAMMMMMMMM!

For those of you who faithfully check my blog in the morning (which I think is a great thing to do, mornings are the best time of the day), could I ask you for a favor? Could you pray for my big exam, which will be taking place all day of Feb 18th?
I know I've taken kazillions of exams in my lifetime... most have gone well, although there have been some remarkable not-so-well ones. At any rate this will probably be the toughest exam of my life. So far. My mom was helpful in pointing out a few of years ago when I wrote the MCAT, "This is not the hardest one Heather, you've got even bigger challenges ahead in life."
I'm not sure if she meant to be comforting or just to tell me to suck it up, but it is a good perspective. Just like David was trained on lions and bears for his battle with Goliath... and at the time it may have seemed huge, but little did he know that he would spend the rest of his life fighting even bigger battles...
I feel like it is particularly wonderful and appropriate to write my exam on my birthday, because I can't think of a better birthday present than to have finished it. (Okay maybe there are better ones.)
Anyway, I would appreciate your prayers as I slay this 'manster' (that is the way an old classmate John used to pronounce it, with his thick Greek accent), and know that I also keep you in my prayers as you face life's challenges, whatever they may be.
love Heather
