I would like to share my testimony about how faithful God is and how His promises are ALWAYS fulfilled even though it’s not always the way we imagine it.
I applied to medical school 2 years in a row. I wasn’t successful, simply because I failed an entrance test. My parents wanted me to start college and I had to choose a totally different school. I felt beyond miserable there and still wanted to try medicine one more time.
So I did – I started preparing for the entrance exam again. Almost everyone told me to give up and it just created more pressure. I was attending university, I had to prepare for its lessons and the only thing on my mind was Chemistry and Biology for the entrance test.
Me „surviving“ the exam season at the university was a miracle itself – I even got As and Bs which was way better than what I studied for.
I was hopeless the day before my entrance exam! I cried so hard and surrendered everything to Jesus. By everything I mean literally everything: my head and thoughts and my future and I told Him I would do anything He wants me to, even if it wasn’t medicine.
I calmed down and stopped studying but I wanted to do just one more practice exam. I scored very good! So I left the exam in God’s hands and went to bed.
I woke up early and went for a walk to pray. When I was getting ready, a tiny voice in my head told me to read and revise 2 questions again. I was confused because I considered them quite okay – I knew that part of the book by heart. I was shocked when I saw these 2 questions on the exam paper! I didn’t hesitate for a second what the answer is.
As I was walking to the school, I remained calm and prayed. I still had some time left so I sat in front of the school to pray more for the exam questions and points, my own memory, the school building and class in the Name of Jesus.
My mind was so clear I couldn’t even believe it: I knew people were praying for me and that I had a „shield“ made by Christ so no attack would be successful.
When I had my exam paper in front of me, I prayed in the Name of Jesus for it once again. I got questions I knew for sure how to answer and my mind stayed perfectly clear. I was so happy I was able to solve even the tricky ones that I made a small mistake when I was writing my final draft… but it couldn’t stop God’s plan.
They didn’t accept me right away, I had to wait for my result and to be honest – I was losing patience and hope. I surrendered this fear of mine to God every time. I had to!
Weeks later, my acceptance letter finally made its way to me! Later I discovered that those 2 questions I studied on the exam day in the morning where the crucial ones in my case. Many people were sceptical about me becoming a medstudent. Thank God His plan doesn’t depend on the opinion of people! Jesus makes a way even when we can’t see one. He makes our dreams come true and shows us which path is the right one.
I thank Him for the wisdom I needed to decide which path to take. I’m thankful for the strength I got when I asked Him for it. I know I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for Him. I will be forever grateful that He saved me and I want to live for His glory.
Special thanks to the people praying for me – my friends and family and friends that became family.
As I was translating this testimony a year later, I started to sob really hard. My first year is almost over – I have a difficult Anatomy exam tomorrow. I thank Jesus for a chance to become a medstudent; for showing me multiple times that He wants me there. That I am in the right place. These are the feelings I struggle with – I often feel miserable and not good enough to study medicine and He never fails to show me in every way possible that I belong.
