Was there a purpose at NAFA?

Having been blessed by the Lord in my path, especially my career, I sometimes ponder/reflect in each "phase" if there was a purpose in specific journeys such that I had somehow served Him well. As I "weathered" through my time at NAFA, obviously I would somehow wonder a bit...

Well, when I started the course, it was all pretty uncertain whether I would even be able to take the module due to some admin delay. But somehow I managed to take it and there it proceeded. Well, this music studies path was planned by God anyway, so I figured it was a continuation of my journey along this path; I took it as just another course.

It was really until recently when an incident made me think that maybe there was another purpose. Don't know how it came that I had the opportunity to get to know my classmates better...was after a rehearsal and we went to have prata before the performance. It started with a short sharing of insecurities and somehow, it progressed further as the time passed, even when we returned to wait for our turn and even after. Basically, she shared on her disappointments and hurts, her struggles but yet she still tries her best in putting her faith in God. I guess she has voiced these before to others as the other classmates were somehow familiar with her situation.
Somehow, I was prompted to respond to her, which later manifested in a card I wrote to her. Actually, I waited 2 weeks before I gave her the card on the exam day...just in case she takes it "negatively" and it'll be awkward if it were still school term. Well, as she's a fellow Christian, I basically wrote something to encourage her to let go of the past and to always look to God. I don't know if she had already read the card, if she found it too preachy and take it "negatively" or whether it served the intended purpose to encourage her. Of course I prayed she would take it positively. Well, if she contacts me, then I guess she'll be ok with it.

Anyway, of course it made me wonder if that was the intended purpose He had for me to go to NAFA in the first place? If it was, I do hope I have served it well. I was pretty fearful actually and might have skipped giving her the card.
