Trust

Every quiet, breathing moment that somehow majestically creeps its way into my day appears to be full of deep thoughts...thoughts of my past, future, and even the present issues at steak.  How I even have time to think of the likes still amazes me...honestly, life feels like a whirlwind!  But aside from all of that, there has been one word on my mind for the past year--> TRUST. 

What is trust?? What is it to you & what is it to me?

Most of you know what my life has held in the past several years, but maybe not all of you...

Last year was my senior year, my last year of school, and to be completely honest, I was VERY excited.  You see, I don't tend to be one of those school nerds who flies through school with impressive grades and I was ready for life..the REAL world..or so I thought.  Christmas was over and slowly my amount of schoolwork became smaller and smaller til there was almost nothing left...Graduation was being thought about and plans were beginning to come together when God threw something at me I never expected!  Believe it or not, I didn't graduate...in fact I have spent this last year in school..doing MORE schoolwork [things I didn't think I'd do] and seeing God work in people's lives.

Now, a little over a year later, I stand in a senior position in life again.  Only this time I think it's real...i think :)  What does God have in store for my future this coming year?

Trust comes to my mind day after day...struggles come hurling my way and I continually have to learn how to totally trust in my Almighty Father.  This year it's trusting that there really IS good in all of the hurts of life and the coming and going...Sometimes I wonder if there's really a point in a year of living completely different...then I wonder how I'm going to leave the friends I've made...

But am I ever grateful that God NEVER changes & I know I can trust Him to lead me!
