After not writing in weeks, not wanting to pick up pen paper ipad anything, I get the nudge to write.
Like I normally do with my journal open, I flip pages praying that something jumps off the pages from the past and grabs my attention.
Tonight it did.

"Because the Father has given ME full sufficiency in Him alone, as a thank you, I need to fulfill my ONE purpose to be used and spend every bit of my mental, nervous, and spiritual energy to disciple men and women to The Lord Jesus Christ. I am to do this no matter where I am. Church, classroom, or work."
The joy of this is that I found these words after writing...
"Because sometimes, just sometimes, The Lord has to open the door to allow things into your life to remind you that you, you aren't I'm control and that no matter how hard you try you will never be able to plan it all out, and you won't ever have it all figured out.
That something can be something awful bad or it could be awful good. I'm a firm believer The Lord has a sense of humor, but I'm even firmer believer that He knows what's best. So no 10 year 5 year or 1 year plan you could ever imagine will come to be. Some of it might, but most of it won't. Scripture tells is that there is nothing that can ever separate us from the perfect love of The Father, and because of that He has great plans for us that are FAR greater than anything our imperfect human minds could imagine.
He knows best. His ways are higher.
To the one who can and will do immeasurably more, to HIM be the glory (Eph 3:20)."
I find so much comfort in both of these, and I love as I sit here asking why to many things that just don't make sense in any way, The Lord has given me the answers right here, and both start with the word "because"
Praying that this meets you where you are. Praying that you aren't also awake at 2:15 am seeking and searching, but if you are know that He has a plan.
To Him be the glory.
