These are our travels.

Awaiting

The waiting game seems like forever sometimes. We wait for people, meetings, work, sleep, food, breaks. We wait for life to some and tell us what is next or where to go from here. But I have given up all of that and now wait for something that people only realize they need when life has seemed to pass them by.

God works in mysterious ways. He will tell us something and then, right on the cusp of you forgetting it He will come and, through circumstance, remind you of what He has spoken. Today was one of those days where God took up his bullhorn and decided it was time to set some things straight.

We each have a reason to live. Some of us choose things or people or systems, but each of us has something that we live our lives for. As for the general Christian consensus we would say that we live for Jesus Christ. Please do not misunderstand, while this is completely correct this is not what I am trying to explain to you. I wish to go much deeper.

I am in search of my destiny, my mission, what I was placed on this earth at this specific time in history for. Each of you has a story, a progression of events leading to a defining moment. Some of us take years to find it, others whole lifetimes, and worse still some never even ask the question.

I have lost sight of the grand story that we live in today as mankind. I have been caught up in the hopelessness of this day and age. And today He has set me straight. He placed me here at YWAM to have the time, courage, and opportunity to pursue what He has for me; to run after it with all of my strength and heart.

I am looking for His great cause for my life and being. You have provided me with an oppurtunity of such great magnitude that so few get. And so I am await His reply.
