Last week I wrote about how exhausted Chet is and asked y'all to pray that he would be able to maintain focus, get some rest, and finish well. It's clear that the Lord is answering those prayers! Chet was able to get a good night's rest over the weekend. He completed several BIG assignments this week, submitted them, and finished reading another book. This was exactly what we had prayed for. I don't think he's forgotten anything when he's left our home all week!
Then the Lord surprised us today with some great news! Chet went to his Hebrew class this morning, and their last exam is canceled. They're going to use that class period for instructional time, so not only does he not have to be concerned about the exam, but their class will actually be able to catch up so that they will have covered all the necessary material before he goes on to the next semester. GREAT!
But it gets better! All I have to say is... Shawn Wright ROCKS! Chet's been taking a church history class this semester called "Calvin and the Reformed Tradition". They've had a tremendous amount of reading and quite a few intense assignments to complete throughout the semester. For one reason or another, his professor (Shawn Wright--in case my context clues were unclear) announced today that he's cancelling their final. AMAZING!!!! He may just end up getting a high five from me the next time I see him. (I don't know Chet's Hebrew teacher, but if I did, he might get one too.)
I mean, seriously, can you even grasp the weight of this? The Lord has shown mercy beyond what we even thought to ask for. Chet still has a lot to do over the course of the next few weeks, but it's NOTHING like what we thought it would be. Praise be to God!
Random aside: Just ONE WEEK until the Casting Crowns concert!!!!!! We're going with some of our favorite people... the teenagers from our church. It's going to be a BLAST!!!
