Passed the Proposal.
Yes. I passed the proposal, and now I am a candidate. Words matter. God created by speaking, and our words also create. With our words, we can encourage, uplift, demonstrate care, love, and goodwill towards those around us. Passing the proposal changes my doctoral journal from student to candidate. I am still the same Ana, but my journey has progressed. What is your journey? Are you progressing with humility and grace? Are you waiting patiently? Who are your cheerleaders? How are you relating to them and to yourself? Are you being kind, curious, and humble? I pray I am. And I pray I will love mercy, act justly, and walk humbly with my God. Please keep me accountable!
