i got my license back!! i'm legal again... and hopefully to stay that way.
ok so... i was reading last night and looking for some encouragement and i hit a passage that ALWAYS hits me wen i've been complaining or doubtful or just frustrated...
"To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
i believe this summer has been/ is a learning summer for me. i'm really having to learn to rely on God and trust in Him until the VERY end. i don't like not knowing... i'm a person who likes to have things worked out so i can plan ahead... i can do sporadic... but not wen it comes to big things. so it hasn't been easy for me to have to live on the edge wen it comes to school. it seems so close and i still don't know where i'm going and there are variables such as if we move or not that can mess with that too. i've been praying and all i know so far is that i want to be where God wants me. that's been my prayer for a while now. and i think i'm beginning to see that this "chaos" is a direct result of that prayer. God's gonna put me where He wants me... but i have to let go and trust that it's in His hands even if i can't have ne answers until school is here.
altho this hasn't been easy for me, it's forced me to dig deeper into God and to grow in ways that i haven't really had to before.
for those of you who have been pulling for me and praying for all this... thank you. i appreciate every second you've been there for me. if i can't come back next year, know that i'll do my best to be around as much as i can and i'm still gonna be there to bug ya. and if i can come back...well... then i'll thank God that He allowed me to be around you guys one more year and i'll know that that's where He wants me. i love you all!! thanks for everything!
LISA HORSELY... I LOVE YOU!!! (even tho you called SOOO early ;P)
God bless
