December 2017 began a new chapter in the story God continues to write for me. I started a new job at Athens College of Ministry as President Marcia Wilbur’s Administrative Assistant. In January I began classes to earn my Masters degree in Christian Ministry. This step is a huge leap of faith for me…however over the years as God has grown my faith, I’ve learned that when I truly live with my hands wide open and trust God when He calls me out to the scary parts of the ocean, He never lets me sink, He always raises me above the scary and unknown, and He deepens my faith and provides everything that I need.
April 20, 2017 marked the beginning of a four day journey to turn the page and end one chapter of this crazy thing called life. I flew to Texas to say goodbye and pack all our belongings and have them shipped back to GA. God called me home for this next season in life. When you choose to open your hand freely, let go of your desires and wishes, you allow God to lead you where He desires you to be. I don’t know what God has in store for me in Athens, but I do know that his will is better than my will and his ways are better than my ways. So today as I board the plane alone (another part of God’s plan and not mine – dad was supposed to be traveling with me but was hit hard early this am with the same stomach bug as mom) I’m trusting that I’m in God’s loving hand and that’s no better place to rest!
