Adjustments

So many changes have occured in the past few weeks... Only a few weeks ago I was crazily abandoning sleep, relationships, and everything else in life in order to make it to graduation day. And then so fast it came and went... My family traveled down to be here, my friends came and we partied it up all night- I am so blessed. My family then took a trip, which is worth a whole blog entry of itself... but I come back and all my roommates are gone- I'm moving in one week, my job is over in 9 days...and I really have no idea what to do with myself.
College is one long season of instability. Not only that, but my car was totaled by a drunk driver a few weeks ago... which leaves me without a vehicle. God has been so faithful to provide one every moment I've needed thus far.. so all glory to him- yet to say, just when I thought life was getting settled and normal... it's not. I have a sense that this is not going to be untypical of the future God has prepared for me. I will likely be a traveling missionary- not living an "unstable" life, but one in which HE is my only Rock- my fortress and my God.
God is teaching me to find his presence in the midst of the storm. For a while I would pray that the storm would go away and I would beg to know why God allowed me to be in the storm- but now I'm learning that God allows me to hide in the shadow of his wings, right in the middle of the storm, but not be affected by it. It is here in this secret place, that I have a front row seat to watch the power of displayed HE calms the storm.
So taking it one day at a time is pretty much my motto right now... each day has enough troubles of its own. and I have nothing but praise and thanksgiving to my Father.. who has been so faithful. I graduated from Biola- a place I never thought I would be able to afford or go to... I have had a car provided for me whenever its been needed... I am moving into free housing this summer, the fulfillment of God's word to me. He is great and greatly to be praised!
