"Gracious uncertainty is the mark of the spiritual life. To be certain of God means that we are uncertain in all our ways, not knowing what tomorrow may bring. This is generally expressed with a sigh of sadness but it should be an expression of breathless expectation.”
~Oswald Chambers
As high school comes to an end in three weeks, a new time in my life is coming. What will happen? So little is set in stone right now. A year ago, I would have worried and panicked. However, now I am embracing the opportunities I have. I could:
*Go to Uganda for a couple months for an internship
*Or maybe go with my sister to Haiti for a week
*Or help to the write the bible study curriculum for the kids at GA
*Or do make more mixed media pieces and collections
*Or learn to speak more spanish
*Or study art history
*Or go to college church with some of friends staying local for college
*Or buy a car
*Or learn to cook
*Or get an internship at my church or another non-profit
*Or work at Starbucks
*Or go back to Mexico with my sister's grade
*Or maybe help plan a mission trip
*Or visit my relatives in Missouri and help my grandma
*Or go on a mission trip with Operation Mobilization
What Lord? Where Lord? I'm waiting here in breathless expectation.
