Storm

Yesterday was my first day of class for the fall, I was rather anxious about going simply because the class was at upstate campus. Essentially, having to travel up every Wednesday. I wasn't exactly sure about my transportation arrangement but I was prepared to go up by public transportation.

As I was about to get ready to move out of the house, my ride called me and said that there is an open space in the car. This reminded me about God's timing even in moments when I am ready to go the hard way, He comes and provide the "ram". It was rather intimidating to go to the upstate campus because of the reputation that I have heard. However, it was rather pleasant in many ways to the experience. I found other means of transportation having to met other city campus classmates.

This is a class that I had to take and by any means, it really is a class that I needed even as I journey through this phase of my life. I am looking forward to what God will show me for the next 3 months. After hearing from the professor yesterday, it is ever more comforting to know that my struggles are so refined for my purpose. But also more than anything, God reminded me that He is the ultimate call for my life and it does not matter where I end up in the next 5 years, or what I will be doing, as long as I have Him as Lord, I will live out everything I can for Him.

Trust is one of the biggest challenge for me this year. More than just a simply trust as many of us may come to place, but He constantly calls for something deeper. So it is rather scary at times when we surrender to God and tell Him that we will do whatever, or go wherever He calls, He may very well take our word for it and surprise us.

So I am trusting God not in holding on so tightly with my plans but to hold loosely to the sovereign plans that I cannot understand.

I see a storm brewing...
