Step by step.

Life is just flat out hard sometimes. :(

but...

I stand firm in my belief that God is glorified during those times we think we can not take that next step. We may give up on everything else, but we must continue to walk in faith. We have to believe He is right there with us. He is cheering us on, knowing we are completely capable of anything.

That next step you are going to take might be unknown by you, but it is known by our Creator. :) So don't worry about what is going to happen next. He already knows, and He is going to take care of everything for you! With each step you take, bring glory to our God & make him proud!

Sweet summertime

What have I gotten myself into?

Well it is official. I have made the transition. I am once again a resident of the town I grew up in.

& it's no bueno. I am not handling the change very well. I've been down in the dumps, shed a few tears and I have not been getting much sleep.

I've been lonely. It's really hard for me to make friends, so a certain prayer lately has been for friendships to prosper.

I have to constantly keep reminding myself that this isn't about me though. May all the glory go to God. <3

3 more days!

When I look back and think about how often I tried to find another job, I am so thankful it never happened. God's plan for me was/is so much more magnificent then what I was trying to plan for myself. Now I feel silly when I think about all the times I was so determined on leaving this job and starting a new one.

I am so thankful for his plan overriding mine : )

Jeremiah 29:11 is the perfect verse for this situation, "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Now my time has finally come! I have 3 more days left at Quiznos. I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that this is exactly what God has planned for me. His plans for me for the near future are still unknown. This probably sounds scary to some, but for me it is pure excitement. I know from previous experiences, for me to plan my future it would be a complete waste of time. It is already planned for me, I just have to wait for God to reveal it to me when he knows I am ready.

For now, I will rest in the comfort of his love.

Christ Ambassador

This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've received I will sow.
