This morning I was waiting for the bus. I sat there pacing back and forth waiting for the YRT.
Talking to many people, it seems lots of people are waiting for the bus…figuratively of course. They are at the stage where they’re not sure what God wants, not sure what they themselves want. This is especially true as I’ve had interaction with high school students (one being my sister) trying to figure out what University and what program to go to. Some people are very focal and have exactly the goal in mind, others just drift.
Either way, I don’t think it’s bad. Here, I’ll borrow Kwan’s quote:
“only when you surrender that which you never had in the first place do you experience the freedom of life itself”
Lately I’ve been one of those people I was talking about. True, I’m on internship and I’m involved in Church here and there in specific ways, but I have no idea what God wants from this point on, and every on-the-spur decision seems to be evaluated in light of what happens next. I like to live that way. I’ve also been burned living this way. But I know the hand of God surpasses all the ways the world can burn me, and that ultimately my faith is the one to be tested. It’s an adventure, as they say.
Not to one-up Kwan, but let me take a quote from the good book which we all live by:
6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Notice that’s up top too? That’s how important it is! So, have you missed your bus yet?
That's not even 10 mniutes well spent!
