Journey

Well I just celebrated my 22 birthday and I still can't believe it. I just can't believe how fast time flies by. It seems like just yesterday I was moving to Tennessee and entering my sophomore year of high school. Now I am in my Senior year of college and about to enter the next biggest and greatest chapter of my life!

I don't know where the next years will take me but I know that my hopes and dreams are not to big to ask God... are not to big to dream and are not to big to hope. My brother always told me to never settle for second best but to ALWAYS wait and go for God's absolute best. Sometimes in life it is so hard to wait. It is so hard to not always know everything... TO know where you will be working.. who will you marry... where will you be in 5 years... and so on and so on... But yet everything is in God's perfect timing.

I know for me as I am getting older, I see my friends slowly gradutating and going their own way... getting engaged... married.. and starting a family of their own. Sometimes that reality is hard to face.. It's hard to think that I am at that place in my life. I don't have a significant other yet in my life, because I am holding out for God's best but sometimes it's hard. Sometimes I wish I just knew who i would be marrying, I wish I knew when I would meet him or if I have already met him. I wonder when that day will come. Sometimes it is lonley when I see all my friends around me with their significant others but then again it is also in those moments that I am reassured of the love of Christ and how is love far out stretches anything and anyone.....

I am excited about this next journey of my life. I am excited about where God is taking me and where I am going.... It is all about the jounrey..
