Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God. Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

Asking for Prayers...
. ...for my oldest son Anthony who is flying to the Air Force Academy Thursday, for a three-day college visit. Please pray for safe travel and some serious discernment. .
Oh Barbara - how exciting... and scary! It's so funny - I actually considered going there back in the day. It's such a wonderful establishment! I elected to go elsewhere though as the requirements for international students made it a bit difficult unless one had diplomatic connections. I will pray that he makes the right decision. It's so important, but I know if he goes with it, he will not be disappointed!
Has he looked at the Presidential Scholar program? DH was selected and it opened so many doors for him scholastically. From what you've blogged it sounds like he would be a perfect candidate!
Praying for you (and your son!) My husband considered the Air Force Academy, but ended up at West Point instead; which is a good thing for me as my college was in much closer proximity to West Point that the AF Academy!
Praying for your son's safe travels, the Holy Spirit to fill your son with wisdom and understanding as he discerns and peace for his mom and dad while he's on the journey.
May God bless and keep him safe...peace to his mother, as well!

ReplyDeleteThank you all. My heart is a little on the heavy side today. And this is just a visit!
