God is a funny man..

This past months has had alot of downs with very few ups. So I am sitting in church Sunday and it was one of those days where I didnt want to get up or do anything. God was like nope, youre getting up and going to church. So while I was late, I was still there ha. And the message was about the purpose of God's plan for your life. Now if im not mistaken, thats what im going through right now. Not exactly sure where God has me going or what in the world my life is going to be like. Well sure enough He is laughing at me right at that moment. The choir begins to sing a song, and its nice and catches my attention. The chorus says "When you dont understand the purpose of His plan, bow your knee." Now I have been in much prayer over the month but I dont necessarily think that I have completely 100% given it all to Him and trush that when I do, things will get better. So thats one hit, then last night at chapter Lacey normally gives us a devo, but had completely forgot. So she decided to recite a verse off the top of her head randomly. It just so happend to be the one that I have been living by the past few weeks. Jeremiah 29:11. " For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." I mean come on!!! He is practically screaming at me now. So yesterday I had my share of tears as I have frequently have had, but these wernt necessarily sad tears. They were more of realization tears. He is always there for me and will always be. He isnt going to leave me when things get rough, he is going to throw me over his shoulder and carry me to safety. Thats why I love him so much. And the fact that when we dont listen and are stubborn out the wazzzou like I am, he kinda puts you in positions where you have to listen to him. He is pretty amazing :)

These were the words of a woman being wise beyond her years.

I especially loved the part about "realization tears." I think that washes in a way nothing else can.
