This season of life is weird.

Growing up. Change. Transitions. Big dreams. Small dreams. Realistic dreams. Broke as a joke. Questions. Answers. Unknown. Excitement. Fear. Trust.

I've spent the last few months in a massive state of indecisiveness. Stay. Go. School. No school. Hawaii. Maui. Oahu. Kansas. Washington. Ministry. Car. Moped. Job. Unsure. Hesitant.

Choppy and vague. Every option has pros and cons. Each idea has something I desire. All along, I have had my eyes locked in on the King, wanting nothing more than to follow HIS path for me. I kept wondering why I didn't have a clear purpose/idea/desire as to what to do with my life next. As I'm sure many people can claim from experience, God works in mysterious ways. And on a typical Thursday night a few weeks ago, a couple from Hope Chapel that I love and admire so much invited me over for dinner. I explained all my woes and questions and dreams dwelling in my heart. They had a proposition. To live with them, and work for Robin, who is an author. Rent free. We prayed together, and I drove away, feeling completely peaceful and completely convinced the Lord hand was covering the whole thing. And really excited because it's all too good to be true!!

Blessings. Understanding. Trusting that God really does direct our paths. I am now assured that even in what I thought was darkness and confusion, God was working. Is working. Will continue working. I have no clue about what is coming tomorrow. But I LOVE what is happening right now. Dude. Allowing God to write your life is tough. But way better. WAY better. We don't even know. He does.

Maui no ka oi :)
