Hello Friends!!
Don't you love it when you think you've got life figured out and then God tells you you're wrong?? I'm not joking. It's actually a really cool thing.
I thought I had it totally figured out that I wanted to work at Qwanoes for a year and be surrounded with people that know me as someone who loves Jesus and it being really easy to live a life wholly devoted to him. I thought it was the perfect time in my life to do that. I even said in my previous post. Then when they told me they didn't want me they said they thought it wasn't the right time in my life! I was so mad because I was convinced that this is where God wanted me.
But I've been thinking a lot about it. Why would God want me to be a Christian where it's easy?? I need to be his light to the dark world. I know that God wants me to be able to be as devoted to him here as I am at camp. I have always known that. I really think that with moving to Langley he is giving me a fresh start. The only people I know in Langley are Christians. That is the complete oppisite to Ladner. I mean I know some really awesome people in my church but we don't hang out too often because they are all quite a bit older than me. Which is fine. I still love them to bits and we have so much fun when we do hang out! I just need so friends my age that love Jesus as much as I do. Because I don't have any that live very close to me.
So all this being said, I am really excited for the fall. Living in a new place and meeting new people. I love being in a place where I don't know anything! I love it! But I am the most excited to see how God is going to use me out here. I am in need of a place to live out here in Langley and a job. But I'm not worried about that at all. I truly believe that God wants me out here now. I believe he has made that very clear. And I see that more and more every day with how he's been blessing me! God is good. I can never, ever, ever forget that. He is an amazing God who can do amazing things!
