Future "Doctor" Prayer Requests

In the very near future -- i.e., next week -- I have to determine a project on which to work during my internship this school year. I will be working with one of Harnett County Schools' Assistant Superintendents on the project. Related to this, I also have to determine a topic for my dissertation (which I will be working on this time next year!). Ideally, my internship project will align with my dissertation topic. In addition, I need to quickly identify the chair of my dissertation committee. These decisions are critical as I must live with both my topic and my chair for a long time and both have a direct impact on my ability to complete my dissertation in a reasonable amount of time.

So, the short story is I am asking you to please agree with me in prayer for guidance in selecting an internship topic, a dissertation topic, and a dissertation committee chair and for doing so in the right time frame.

Thanks for your prayers!

I will be praying. What topic did you decide to write about?

For my dissertation? I haven't decided on one yet. . . . That's part of the challenge! :0(

O.K. Dr. Blackwell and any Sassy Sistas reading along, let's pray.

Abba, God. We ask for your divine presence to come upon Dara right now. Hold her, and comfort her. Abba, You said that "if anyone [Dara,:)] lacks wisdom, ask, and it shall be given to you." Abba, we are asking and seeking for Your wisdom. You said that "where 2 or more agree, it is done." So, Abba,we are in agreement that Dara will choose the perfect topic that flows well with her internship project and the perfect chair who will be a reliable compass during this season of her life. We ask that Your hand would be on all these things. In Jesus'name, Amen!
