BEAUTY FROM ASHES

“To everything there is a season,

A time for every purpose under heaven:”

I cried. There were so many questions hiding in my heart. I was scared of what my next steps would be. I was unsure of what my future held. I thought I had it all figured out and then I felt ashamed. How could I possibly call myself a Christian, a believer, if had so much fear and doubt in my heart?! I was not placing my trust in the One who holds it ALL in His hands. But instead, I was fretting over a situation that was out of my control. I asked God for forgiveness and I also asked Him for a double portion of grace for the upcoming weeks. 

Life is not about remaining stagnant in one place.

But it’s about growth.

It’s about entering different seasons one at a time.

It’s about letting go of our plans and holding on to His.

It’s about meeting new people while saying goodbye to others.

It’s about seeing Him close some doors while opening others.

I don’t need to know the direction God is taking me because I know that wherever He leads me, it will be a blessing not only to me but to those around me.
If He is aware of every hair that falls of my head, how can I not entrust Him my future??  

As this chapter in my life closed, I felt a bittersweetness take over. I was entering a new season in my life. Saying goodbye to wonderful friends and family all while awaiting for what the future would bring. 

There is a time for everything under the heavens. Until this day my God has remained faithful and he will continue to do so. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
In this season, I am learning to trust Him as my Good Shepherd. I just pray to have the attitude of a lamb: sensitive to the Shepherd’s voice, willing to obey at all times.
