It's late. But my mind can think of so many other things to do than sleeping and judging by my rapid typing, it seems my fingers and my mind just need to say something so I think it best to blog.
Being home stresses me out. Its a kick back into an old life and a reminder that I have no idea where my new life is headed. My parents are always interested in what's new in my life. With me you never really know and I think they're grown to expect that. The simple question can bring a variety of answers pertaining to my major at PLBC, my future at PLBC, my ministry focus as of late, and various other subjects. Never a dull moment in my brain, I can tell you that much.
Last night I sat down with my parents to discuss all that is new with me, including recent cry fests about how I believe my life is going nowhere, but mostly focusing on the new opportunity with the Pregnancy Options Center. As I began to explain to my parents what I've been praying about and trusting God to illuminate; things started making sense. I realized that the dreams that I have had for years could actually be obtainable and I might actually be on the right track to see them come to completion. I suppose this is always a good thing.
Two silly dreams I've had suddenly collided and I realized what I need to do. First, I have a dream to speak in front of large groups of youth and young adults. I have had visions of me on stage preaching in front of crowds and I believe these visions are God given. The second is to write a book. This seems impossible but with God I know what the impossible is made possible. So why fear?
I realized that working with the Pregnancy Options Center is the perfect step for me on this path towards my future. It will help me become more comfortable with public speaking and familiar with the topic of "sexual integrity" which is what I want to write about in this book. I want to write about the seasonal gift of singleness and relationships. I realize right now, I can't quite write about relationships considering I know nothing about the subject but this will be a process. It's all about making steps towards my goals.
I am tired of dreaming and its about time to do something about those dreams. If this means starting chapter outlines for this book, then that's what I shall do. I am a driven girl. I will not let anything get in the way of these dreams. Step by step, I will walk in faith towards my dreams. My path is ordained, this is know for sure.
