These last few weeks have been crazy...and even in the midst of how busy I've been, thoughts of "the future" keep creeping into my head. If we are each put here on earth to do something specific...it seems like it takes a long time to find out exactly what that is. Sometimes I feel like there's some job out there, waiting for me, for after graduation, and I'm on some sort of crazy scavenger hunt trying to find it...
But as challenged as I have felt in the last couple weeks, both in the amount of work there has been to do and in how much I have felt pushed to think more about my future, I have also felt the continuous presence of God's grace. Sometimes, He is slow. At one point this week, I prayed that a group meeting would go well and somehow still it seemed like it would fall apart. And I thought, "wait, God, didn't I just pray about this?! Come on...help me out here."
But it's because He wants us to expand. He wants to challenge us. We are pushed to our very limits and then somehow we are caught. By our own strength, by our friends, by the beauty of our world. Someone smiles, or brings you hot chocolate, or makes brownies with you. Or somehow, something you say or do actually WORKS!
Glory!
