These past few months I have been in a fog, therefore my blogging has been on the back burner! I have been so focused on trying to get done with school and keeping my eyes on the finish line that I have been walking through my life as if I was a robot. Get up, go to work, work some, go to lunch, work some more, head home, eat dinner, go to bed, and then get up and start it all over again.
Do you know how many blessings a person can miss when they are walking around as if nothing else existed? Many! Now that I am done with school (yay finally) and trying to study for my boards and still enjoy summer, I am beginning to realize just how BIG our God is and how much He really does care about me.
God has prepared a beautiful future for me and has faithfully helped me through each and every milestone, but the sad thing is sometimes I do not even notice. God has gotten me through OT school (with my insanity)! God has given me beautiful and wonderful friends who encourage me and speak life into me! And the best thing of all is God has prepared a doorway, okay lets not even say prepared, lets be honest, God swung a doorway wide open for me to have a job doing OT, like I love, but also being able to do OT in Africa!! How cool is that! My two biggest passions......all wrapped up in one job! I was blown away!
I figured my dreams of doing OT in Africa and hopefully eventually opening up a medical clinic would take years and thousands and thousands of dollars. I knew it would have to take many people and something really big to make this dream come true. Boy was I wrong! Within a few short minutes of me speaking out my passions and dreams.....they were being created into a plan...a real plan that could happen within a year! HOW BIG IS OUR GOD!!!
I was talking to one of my dear friends and telling her the wonderful news and all about where I will be working and how excited I am and I said a few simple words to her that I feel like completely sums up my future......"It's going to be WILD!" I have no idea what my future holds, except that I have an apartment for another year, and I have a wonderful job doing what I love, other than that who knows....but what I do know is that God is not done with me! God has just began and if I let him continue to guide me and if I walk the path he has set for me then "It's going to be WILD". And for once in my life, I think I am a little bit ready for some WILDNESS, GREATNESS, and the UNKNOWN!
God cares....He really does! So don't walk around like a robot (even though its so hard not too) and miss His plan and His blessings....who knows, maybe your future holds a bit of WILDNESS too!
