Seasons of Life:

Seasons/Phases/Chapters... whatever you want to call it. I entering a new one. Life as I know will be different from here on out.
It's interesting that my last post on here was about how hard waiting is, and now here I am almost exactly a year later to tell you how God has worked some miraculous things out for me. This year has been full of surprises and has been eventful to say the least.
Here are a few of the big ones:
1. I Had a couple seizures in march. I found out I have epilepsy. I got a medical suspension on my license because of it.
2. Erik asked me to date him in may. I gladly said yes ;)
3. I worked at Servants Heart Camp Ministries over the summer as Sr. counselor. God worked in so many incredible ways there!

Here is what is happening now:
1. I quit my job at country table restaurant.
2. Tomorrow i move in with Mrs. Curtis!!!
3. I applied to Millersville University. I am trying to start school this semester, but the admissions office is very bad at communication! I have not gotten the final ok yet. It's frustrating not knowing this close to school, but God knows best!
4. I retook my medical tests to try for my license again. Jan 26th I know the results!

It seems like things are starting to come together for me. I still have some waiting to do, but God is starting to gently push me along. Every step of the way I know He is guiding me. It's such a comforting thing to have someone to believe in! I don't know how people can survive without God! He is my consent strength when I am failing!

Last years theme verses for me was from psalm 71:

20Thou, which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth.

21Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.

I used these verses over and over again when the going got tough. I always think of that second verse as a figurative "Hug from God" that may seem strange, but isn't that what a hug accomplishes? It comforts us on every side. (Wraps itself around us). Not only did God use my struggles and these verse in my own life, but He was was able to use them in the lives of the many campers i counseled who need to hear these same verses!
All I can say is that God was good yesterday, He is good today, and will continue to be good tomorrow. Don't ever doubt His goodness!
If you want to be of use to God, maintain the proper relationship with Jesus Christ by staying focused on Him, and He will make use of you every minute you live—yet you will be unaware, on the conscious level of your life, that you are being used of Him.
