I'm being pulled along in life's journey, still unsure of where it's taking me. Not that I'll ever really know where I'm being led to, or what will be next in this great adventure. I guess that's what makes life interesting. You follow along, thinking you have a pretty good idea of your life and how things are, and then BOOM, something unexpected comes along and you're flying in a totally new direction trying to figure out how on earth to handle the situation. God is great. Well, more than great, He's Awesome, Magnificent, Wonderful....! I'm so glad that He has the reigns in my life. It's such a huge comfort to know that whatever situations come up, He is in control. It doesn't mean that decisions are easy, but He opens and closes the doors, all I have to do is trust and follow.
Though I say all of that, I'm still struggling to trust and follow. I'm struggling to have complete faith in God, struggling to spend time with Him, struggling to seek out His will for me, struggling to live completely for Him and set aside my own human desires, struggling to live like Jesus. Life is a struggle. I love life...I love the challenges, though sometimes it gets discouraging. I hate that I fall so easily and bend to pressures and temptation, even over little things that don't seem to make much difference in life. I guess that's the challenge of it all.
Things have been good. I went to training in Minnesota for two weeks and I really enjoyed it. Most people were anxious to go back home, but I was actually enjoying it (I guess that's part of having a pretty boring life :P). I met a few great people, some of which I'm sure I'll continue to keep in touch with. I'm excited to go back in a few months for a longer, more extensive training course. I'm not sure when that'll happen, but hopefully within the next 6 months.
I'm looking at an apartment tomorrow, which I'm thrilled about! I hope it's a decent place. It'll be available at the end of December. Yay :D I'm anxious to get my own space!
Not a whole lot more happening right now. It's Halloween today...there have only been two kids who have come for candy so far and it sounds like it's raining out now, so there probably won't be any more. :P
