Sometimes, life seems so certain and known. Sometimes we can look ahead and see life's path laid out clearly before us. And other times we can hardly see our next step.

This has been an incredible week for me. Wonderful, but at the same time draining, both physically and emotionally. Classes started, and I have been rushing around trying to get everything accomplished that I needed. Sleep has been restless and too short. But it's more than that. This week, God has brought me to my knees, looking to Him. In the last week, I have turned to Him for patience, peace, forgiveness, instruction, hope. He has pushed me to an emptiness of myself so I had to look to Him. It has been wonderful. I have grown in my trust in Him and have not been denied any need, but it has been hard. It is hard to admit errors, weaknesses, failures, and then rely on another to change them. You would think by now it would be easy. The Lord has never failed me yet. Yet in my pride, I continue to struggle more than I care to admit. But it is good. God is good. And I can say that, resting, knowing, trusting Him to guide my path. It may be blurred from my eyes, but not from His, and he will never fail me.

"Your will cannot lead me Where your grace will not keep me. Your hands will protect me. I rest in your care. Your eyes will watch over me. Your love will forgive me. And when I am faltering, I still will find You there."  "Grace"

I found your page, as usual, simply by surfing, and was so invigorated by the powerful belief you have in God. That is such a rarity in youth, these days... it is pleasing to discover.

In short introduction, I am a newspaper manager and a Church lector, and finnd my survival in the former by my anchor in the latter. The strength of our future lies in people like you, with a firm foundation in that which truly guides us.

Our lives are as we live them, but ultimately we have a destiny, as The Lord already knows what our paths are... it is the experiences we gather along the way that actually makes us better prepared for our ultimate destiny.

Don't fight against what presents itself against you; rather, accept it as a challenge to overcome on your way to your life's true path.

We are all here for a specific reason. We are given all the time we need to learn what we need to make that reason reality. Bless you for recognizing that so early...

He has been guiding you; He is guiding you; He will guide you. I love being able to watch you grow in this, and in watching you, I'm challenged. God truly is good.

Nothing has changed, Katy. If you can see the next step or if you can't, God is good. He is always good!

Praying for you

Ok, this new look is very you. It is the you you have evolved into.
