It is so awesome to see God working in my life and the lives of others. This morning the Lord put on my heart that I needed to repost an entry from back in February, entitled "Let Go and Let God." I had a feeling that someone out there needed to hear what I had experienced a few months ago.
Within a couple hours I received two messages from individuals who had read the entry and how much they appreciated the post. One thanked me for what I had to say, to which I quickly informed them that I just type what the Lord puts on my heart. I'm simply a scribe here on Earth articulating His words to me.
I am so happy that He is able to work through me to impact the lives of others.

The Summer Sprint
The end of next week will mark the halfway point my first summer semester of physical therapy school. One short week from today I will be home for a brief break before finishing out the final four weeks of the semester. Sounds easy right? Well, not exactly. Before I get to return to the capital city, I've got two exams to take.
Clinical Pathophysiology and Gross Anatomy. The former, a mouthful for most of you I'm sure, simply put, articulates how our bodies function at the cellular level and the latter is the course with cadavers. Clinical Pathophys is this coming Tuesday and Anatomy is this Wednesday.
Prayers this week for focus, patience and productivity would be appreciated. Thanks to everyone who regularly follows "The Road to DPT" and thanks to all of the first time readers of my blog is well.
I hope this isn't the last time you read an entry I post and I hope you continue on with me in my journey in academia and with the Lord to become, Brandon Bowers, Doctor of Physical Therapy.
Remember God's faithfulness in biblical history.
Remember God's faithfulness in your life.
Remember God's faithfulness at the cross.
The Lord hasn't failed me or you yet and He never will.
The Lord has made a difference in my life and He can make one in yours too, you just have to open the door.

What's Going On?
Just wanted to give everyone a brief summary of where things are at with DPT school. The first two weeks came and went faster than you can say Snuffaluffagus. Our first exam was on June 20th (Thursday), I feel like it went pretty well.
Studying for exams in graduate school let alone doctoral school is ridiculous. I had lunch with a close friend today and was telling her that studying for these exams is like studying for undergrad finals...all of the time. Studying on steroids without a doubt.
I'll have a short break over the 4th of July, from July 3rd through July 6th. I plan to spend my "mid semester" break (if you can even call eight weeks a semester) at home spending time with my family and friends. I might need to practice palpating people for an exam on July 9th. So if you want to be palpated and help me out that'd be great.
Until next time.
Have an awesome day.

Incredibly Grateful
With living in a new location comes finding a new church home for the next three years. I received a phone call last night at about 9 pm from a close friend inviting me to attend church today with him and his wife. God is pretty incredible the way He works.
To say that I am incredibly grateful for what happened this morning would be an understatement. Gabe and Shauna Dunbar, I'll thank you again for your willingness to not only invite me but go out of your way to give me a ride to church this morning since I don't have a car. After attending just a single church service, I already feel welcome and a part of the congregation. The worship was incredible and the message this morning about how we should spend our time was great as well.
Gabe and Shauna,
I'm really looking forward to see what the Lord has in store for our lives the next three years and am looking forward to walking closer with Him and getting to know you both better as well.

Day One in the Books
Well...day one is now behind us. The day began this morning at 10 AM for orientation along with faculty and student introductions. The orientation lasted about an hour and a half which was then followed by a lunch break until 1 PM. A few of us, with the help of classmates who went to UT for undergrad, ventured to Rocket Hall to get are ID badges printed and then to the union for a Subway lunch.
After lunch the real fun began. We received a one hour orientation to Gross Anatomy (one of two courses I'm taking this summer), and then we hit the ground running. Our class was divided into two groups and then further subdivided into four smaller groups. Four of the small groups began the lab working on the cadavers while the other four worked on the lab handout for the week. My small group began with the cadavers, one cadaver per two small groups of four. About halfway through the lab the cadaver and lab handout groups switched roles and worked until 6 PM.
At six things wrapped up and we headed back to our apartment. If you want more details about the day contact me. Three of our classmates in the program that live in the same apartment complex as us invited us over for dinner so we're headed over here shortly. I apologize for how brief this entry was but I hope it was succinct and covered the main ideas.
