    Default School - Please Read/Pray

    So most of you have read my previous requests for prayer that God would provide money for school. And then, most of you probably know that I was effected by the tornadoes in Alabama.

    Well, today is the 3-month anniversary. And oddly enough I found out today from the Dean of my school that there is 0 scholarship money available for me, the hardship application I submitted probably will not yield any funds because I had renters and car insurance and my need for school does not matter apparently in terms of this hardship application, and I still don't have a car.

    I have a roof over my head. I have a ride to work, a full time job. I got an extension yesterday from student receivables saying I have until August 19th to pay or confirm my schedule (show that I have money coming). I had to turn down a job yesterday BECAUSE I was so sure that God would provide the money for school -- and that if I took it and had to quit I would be doing a disservice to the manager who took was willing to take a risk on me to head up a new department. I had potential to make decent money. Now, I don't know where to turn. I've applied for loans 3 times and been denied. I've been told by two people in my department that there is "basically nothing left that we can do" for me, and I need to drop out and work and save up money to return to school. The problem? Within six months I have to start making student loan payments. On a $8/hr job? And pay rent? And save up money for school? And pay about a MINIMUM of 1k per month towards loans? Impossible. I really don't know what to do, ask or say. I honestly feel like the weight of the world is on my shoulders right now. I can't escape it. I know I'll owe money once I graduate -- but at least then I'll have a degree and 6 months to get a job that will help make the payments. If I quit now..I'll never be able to return.

    Pray for me. I know I seem like I'm constantly begging. Probably seem like an emotional sap. (This same prayer request applies to my brother. He's a Sophomore. Just got accepted into a program where he was one or 17 accepted out of 250 applicants.)
