Through prayer, I felt God wanted me to attend college even though life was going well. It was not just any university I was being led to- it was Haskell. The fall of1993 was my first semester here- so the thought of leaving Alaska in the fall of 2008 was not attractive, and I simply did not want to further my education at that point in my life. In the spring of 2009, my Dad was murdered, and I had every to reason to call it quits with school and making disciples. My oldest brother passed 6 months after my Dad, and I really could have walked away from everything, but did not. I remembered the simple things from when was I first learning about how Jesus loved me. Faith kept me going.
