Almost Halfway

Tomorrow is my last day of 2L finals. Con Law and Civ Pro. I've been scoring well on my practice BarBri MCQs in Con Law so I feel confident going into the final that I have prepared for it. I am less confident about Civ Pro, but I think that a little more review and that will be ok as well.

It's hard to believe that I am here almost finished with my 2L year. I also find it difficult to believe that last year I was preparing to take my FLYSX exam and worrying about passing that. Now I'm worrying about 2L finals and realizing just how much I want this, and how good a fit it has turned out to be. (Not exactly what I expected).

I have also been surprized that everything has turned out the way that it has. Every time I have asked for a direction or encouragement, I have had someone tell me how we need good lawyers, or that law school seems to be a good choice for me, or that they know someone they like who is a lawyer. Every time I have turned to God for guidance, He has brought me encouragement to keep moving toward being a lawyer.

Now I'm concerned that I won't pass my final exams. I keep hearing encouragment - the "Still Small Voice" that says "don't worry, you will pass." I keep hoping that it is true. I keep hoping to see that it is the case. I am worried about this. I am worried about how well I will do, and if I will do well enough to pass.

Sigh. Almost done. I can see the halfway point from here.
