Ramblings of a Sunday evening

I am at a time in my life where most anything could happen. I am excited about this time, but scared that I am going to make the wrong decision. I am not exactly sure why, but I am. I know that God is in control, and that all I have to do is listen to His direction. Sometimes that can be hard. I am not sure about anyone else, but sometimes I feel that my own thoughts drown out God speaking to me. It doesn't necessarily mean a "voice" but the subtle things. A scripture, a sermon, worship, God's creation, anything that may be right there in staring you in the face. Sometimes I feel so close to Him simply by walking outside to look at the sky that is so wide, or even the mountains that bring such crazy weather here. They are so steady and ferocious, stunning and majestic that all you can do is simply breathe in the beauty that God has given.

I know that for me, in this particular time in life, I need to enjoy each day that God has given me to learn and realize how wonderful He really is. He takes such good care of me. Why do I complain?! He know's the plan for me. He know's my heart and the desires of it, because he placed them there. I just see everyone around me "moving on with life" and I wonder when it's going to "take off for me". Only it has! I know I am right where I need to be, even though I may complain about it. It's easy to get in a rut and not see the big picture. It's an every day adventure for me and I absolutely love it! I do treasure this time and know that everything that I am doing is for a reason and that it's going to pay off in the end.

I can't wait to look back and see how God was directing everything. It's going to be so rewarding!


"He is Jesus
The One and Only.
Transcendant over all else.
To know Him is to love Him.
To love Him is to long for Him.
To long for Him is to finally
reach soul hands into the
One true thing we need
never get enough of.

Jesus.
Take all you want.
Take all you need.
Til soul is fed.
And spirit is freed.
Till dust is dust.
And Face you see.
Jesus Christ.
He's all you need"
-Beth Moore
