Slowly but surely...

Slowly but surely I feel that God is revealing His plans for me. In His time. In His way. I am truly humbled. God...you're funny. =)

Everyone's blogs seem to be similar lately. All about how time is flying by. All about nostalgia and wishing things would just slow down a bit. I feel the same way. I'm almost done with my third year of college and I'm about to enter my final year. I think it was Meechy who said that college seems to parallel the feelings of high school. I remember being a junior in high school. I was so concerned about what college I would get into, what final steps I needed to make to ensure that I would get into a good school, and of course getting rid of the early seniorities that was taking over my life. And here I am, four years later, going through the same things. But then again, not really. I am still concerned about my future (actually more than ever), but now I have the faith and trust that He will guide me. And I have the experience that knows that whatever happens, happens for a reason and it'll all turn out alright in the end.

Angie once asked me what were the greatest things I learned this year about life and about faith. I'd say...about life...don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zones..to challenge yourself beyond what you think your limits are, because in the end you will find that there is more to yourself than you know. I feel like I challenged myself a lot this year and people definitely challenged me. And I'm really glad they did b/c it gave me a little more confidence but at the same time a lot of humility. Also, I learned that I don't have to carry everything...that I could lean on the people I love especially during the trying times and there were definitely trying times this year. Life is a balancing act! I'm still working on that. LOVE TILL IT HURTS.

About faith...I learned my freshmen year the importance of prayer but I don't think it was till 2 years later that I learned to get on my knees and pray. I am continuing to see that God truly runs with your "yes". hahaha. I think one of the biggest things I learned is that whatever I am lacking (which is a lot), He will make up for..so just TRUST. He NEVER ceases to AMAZE me.

Wow...thinking about all that stuff almost brought tears to my eyes. It's been a good year. Thank YOU. I'm sure there's a lot of stuff I'm missing but ya. I want to know what other people's answers are. I think you should blog about that. haha.

Ok...wow. There's nostalgia for you. Thanks anna for passing it on. haha. =P
