In this futuristic world that we live in it has become a bad thing to not look ahead and plan for the future. We are so inclined to think about our next move and our next step that we hardly ever stop and look at where we are in the now. At the end of this week I am headed home for the first time since moving to Louisville. So, as you can imagine it is extremely difficult for me not to be set on the end of the week. How much would I miss though if I didn't take the time to sit down and realize that yes, I will be going home at the end of the week but what does God want to show me in this moment?
Frankly, I don't know. I feel like that's what I write on here all the time is that I don't know what to expect or what is going to happen or what the right answer is, but I am thankful for the things I don't know. If I have learned anything up to this point during my experience here it's that by me not knowing I have to really put my trust and faith in God. This is scary and it is hard. I am so inclined to try and do things myself....and that's the biggest joke ever.
God, what do you have in store for me today? In this moment? I pray and ask Lord that we would not be so caught up in what's going to happen that we miss what is happening. Open our eyes and our hearts to see what is happening right in front of us. Teach us to be patient. Thank you God, for these opportunities to grow in faith. Let them be everlasting. I pray Lord that we would constantly be reminded that you are all we need and that you are all satisfying! In Christ's name I pray, Amen.
