Not Knowing Where You're Going Yet Being OK With It...

The job search continues...with lots of "We're sorry but..." responses and for the time being. I must say that the roller coaster of ups and downs is like nothing I've experienced recently. For those of you who know me, I'm a planner and strategist who loves to have things laid out. I know this can't happen 100% of the time, but I try to do it as much as possible. My walk of faith in this season, just like many others have to live out, is one of trusting God completely, even when I can't see what He's doing or where He's leading. I want answers, timing and direction. He says, "Do you trust Me?" But Lord I only have 5 weeks left at my present job. Again He says, "Do you trust Me?" I cling to Hebrews 11:1 on my journey which says, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." If I can see it, is it really faith? If I have a hand in making it happen, is it faith? Great questions for sure! Here's what I do know: 1) God knows my needs 2) God is for me and not against me 3) God is my provider and protector and 4) And every one of God's promises will come to pass. The season I'm in is so good for me, as it pushes me toward God and strengthens my faith in Him. I'm learning to rest in His goodness and peace, while winning the battle against failure and discouragement. What I can tell you right now is that God has my life in His hands and has everything under control. People ask me how I'm doing and if I'm OK? My answer to that is simple, true and gives me peace. I'm doing good, my relationship with Him is growing even deeper, and my walk of faith is strong. I must never forget that faith is a muscle which must be exercised daily :)
