God alone can...

..predict the future.

Aaron and plaques: In 2003, when still in high school, Aaron was invited to apply for a special scholarship to Stanford. After months of working on the scholarship, and then being asked to fly down for the final interview, we were told Aaron was not selected. But as we walked past the fresh plaque for the 2003 graduates and we stopped to pray, we each had a unique resonance about this spot, a sense we would be returning. We have, the end plaque to the right is for Aaron’s graduating class.

Halls of learning: “Do I belong here, do I have what it takes?”, are questions Aaron asked frequently in his first year. The resounding answer is Yes! As we walked around today, we talked to and “ran into” a number of profs who affirmed Aaron. As I am typing this note, Aaron is rehearsing his acceptance speech for this evenings induction into Phi Beta Kappa. This fulfills a prophecy which I received, and prayed over Aaron, on March 18, 2004.

The celebration: Tomorrow night Aaron will walk across this stage and receive his degree from Stanford, with Honors. It is a long way from being thrown out of Middle School; God is forging a very good story. The journey is just beginning…..

God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful.
