the newness of summer.
In Canada everything is new in the summer. Every week there is something that is coming alive, dying, changing. This is reflected in my life too. One day I was planning on fleeing the country in the fall and the next I'm planted in an internship at my church. My whole life took a 180 degree turn toward my destiny and it is all so exciting and scary. I will use this blog for its old purposes- to jot down my thoughts- but also as a way of keeping you informed on my life and the crazy and wacky ways God is moving it, loving on it and breathing life into it. My pastor looked at me once and said "if God called you to live in a tent in the middle of India you would probably want to do that more than stay in one place...maybe this is the adventure God is calling you too" and he was right. Now God is giving this vagabond girl who has moved 24 times in her life the faith to fly where shes at.

Word. Same thing hit me too. My pastor told me that if I continue going in the direction that I"m heading (because I was considering taking another year off school) he said that I'll ruin my life and all my relationships.
ReplyDeleteTalk about a kick in the butt, eh.
So I'm learning to cultivate the ground I'm on. "If you want to feel alive, you gotta learn to love your ground."
