Over the past seven odd years I have found myself living in various different locations....from Boston, to Newport Beach, Swanzey Lake, London....now to Chicago.
Throughout my decision process as to "where" to move, i have tried to be faithful to pray and trust that God has prepared the way for each local. Of course, faith is an action, so if we want to see God move we got to pick up our feet! The version in Genesis where God says to Abram, "Go and I WILL show you the land I have given you!" The tense of word 'will' has always struck me as indicative of God's nature. Part of faith is trusting in what we can't see....luckily faith is a gift and we can ask for more of it!
Anyways, point of my ramble....in each of the places I have moved there has been that moment when I am walking around like normal and suddenly it strikes me that I am home. I am exactly where God wants me and I have an overwhelming feeling of joy and peace the washes over me like a wave of grace from God the Father:-).....today I received a wave!
I don't know what God has in store for my life, but I know that it will be an adventure. I don't know what this Chicago life will look like, but I am excited. I have no idea what the future hold, but I will GO, and He WILL show me:-)
