God...

God is good. His timing is perfet. I just wish that I always saw things in God's timing. You see what had happened was...I was planning on moving to Colorado Springs for a year of music school. My whole focus for everything I have been doing was to that end. Doors were swinging wide open and I was making great contacts at the school and church ( such as the president of the school) and all these great things. So I thought surely this was the direction in which God wanted me to head...and to a degree...my thinking was correct. The part of my thinking that was INcorrect was the part where I was thinking the best thing for me to do would be to go that school. God had a BETTER plan.
I say BETTER because I think that things and decisions in life are, alot of the time, not a question between right and wrong...but between good and best! If I would have gone to the school in CO...that would have been great! But through a series of events...I made some quick decisions and I believe that the BEST thing for me to do was to stay here...for now. So I didn't get to go to the school i was planning on going to but...I started at Destiny Bible College last Tuesday night and I can already tell that it is going to be amazing!
One bad thing though is that I had already quit my job because I was planning on leaving. So now that I am not leaving...I need a new job. I can't get my old job back because my brother already got hired. But hey...I'm the kind of guy that believes that as I seek God and his will...He will bring me to another job that is just AS good or BETTER than my last job. Needless to say...I am learning to TRUST in God and in the plans that he has for me. Not a blind ignorant "trust" or "faith"...you know the kind that people have where they sit back and believe that if God wants something to happen for them...it will...even though all the do day in and day out is sit on their butts and live their selfish lives. I'm talking about the kind of faith where I can continue to move forward...even though I can't see more than one step down the road. But hey...if I could see MORE than one step down the road...I might skip a step or two and miss out on some amazing things that God wants to do in me...for me...and through me...So all of that to say that I am content where I am...but am continually moving forward...hoping to accomplish those things that God has appointed me to do. Love Love....
