I am leaving the afternoon of January 20th
and i am TERRIBLY excited!!!
There have been some complications here and there
and although I do not resent them for it,
there's been some doubt spoken from acquaintances to people that are very close and dear to me
which has been hard
But I've known all along that this is what God has for me
It's funny really
I'm the type of person that I just worry about EVERYTHING
hahaha i think i got it from my mom
but this last year, 2008, where God has really been weaning me away from several of my closest friends,
at a time when I didn't fully understand it, just thinking "God where did everybody go?"
and although i didn't understand it
I knew that this was all a part of God's plan for my life
and through that knowledge and peace
I began to stop worrying so much
b/c I realized that if i was going to trust God
then i actually needed to TRUST Him
and so even though it was hard for me
breaking away from everything and everyone that i knew for so long
it was GOOD and REFINING
i've been praying always that God would equip me for whatever He has planned, including Brazil
and He HAS, in ways i never would have forseen and didn't realize i might need
and everytime i think about worrying
i go back to
"Do not worry about anything, but pray about everything"
ah phillippians... one of my fave books
very encouraging
and i hope that you are encouraged
i pray that when times get hard and doubt enters your mind
PRAY about it
don't just carelessly ask God halfheartedly
but REALLY PRAY and SEEK GOD
TELL HIM WHAT YOU FEEL
ASK HIM FOR GUIDANCE AND PEACE
AND HE WILL ANSWER YOU!!!
I PROMISE :)
He may not always give you what you want
but like the song says haha
ya might get what ya need :)
Be blessed!
