About Me

My photo
I am a 25 year old college grad and am taking the road less traveled. A couple of years ago I moved from my hometown of 20+ years and a life of stability and familiarity to follow the call of the Lord. It sounds a bit crazy but I know my Father's voice and He said to go...so I did. I am a Pre-K teacher and tutor and I believe in relying on the Lord to the best of my human ability for every open door to be provided. He has not failed me yet and I am beginning to think He never will...(He doesn't!He is GOD!)I love playing the guitar and I have been blessed with a voice to praise my maker. I look forward to writing and playing worship music with my future husband(whomever God is bringing) one day and raising an army for Christ.

What is this you say? Another chapter perhaps?

Yes, Yes! I believe so. When I started this blog I wrote as if being a page in a story. The story that Christ wrote so long ago before I came into the world. I now write as having one chapter coming to an end and another getting ready to begin. I am excited to say the least. Through this journey of examining myself and my hearts desires, I have found that people's true colors shine forth when you ask the Father to help you discern whether or not it is actually you who is being guarded toward someone when they say they have changed or if it is God who has guarded you from the lie once again. I live to give the benefit of the doubt....and I wanted so badly to give someone very close to me that benefit....but 7 days was all it took for that person's true colors to be revealed. It was not a pretty thing to see. However, in the persecution that came, I have found joy and peace knowing that the Father has once again shown me that what has happened in my life has happened for a reason and that everything is going to be ok. It will be OK! It is finished..... I am happy to finally breathe and move on to the greater things that have yet to come.....it's been promised!

I finish teaching in 5 days. GLORIOUS! I have had a great semester and I look forward to the needed summer break. It is funny, I am learning that I cannot look ahead too much, not even to tomorrow, because it is not promised. I am still trying to grasp that concept but it's coming! I have 5 days until freedom and I just don't know what to do after.

In my About Me, I wrote that I have moved from my home-town of 20 years and have established a career and fellowship elsewhere. There is one thing......my whole family is back home and I miss them. What shall I do? You may say, "go home silly girl!". I have almost 3 months to lounge(while getting paid praise the Lord) and I can really use that time to get things done back home with family. However, God has moved me here for a purpose and I have yet to see it come to pass. I know all He has done is for my good and now it is time to be obedient. He isn't asking for much. Just my dedication and open ear. I await His instruction and I pray that I be so open to heed His will. Sometimes I just wonder if I think to much......I tend to do that.

I hope that life has treated you kindly wherever you are in it. Know that God does not make us reel in a moment for too long. He only gives us what we can handle. There is a season for everything and well, WELCOME new season! I can't wait.

Blessings~
