Don't you find that life is so wonderfully random? My life has been a series of random encounters, events, and people. I have found so much happiness in those random moments ; however, recently the random universe seems to have a little more order. As I have made a conscious effort to more closely align my life with God's Will, it is amazing how once random things start to become a little more intentionally designed. God is slowly showing me a small morsel of His Will through the people I have met and experiences that I have had lately. God has been placing people in my life who can empathize with my struggles and lovingly support me, but also who want/need to hear some of the lessons God has taught me. Isn't God's unconditional love astounding? He seeks to bless us when we seek Him.
Speaking of blessings, have I mentioned that I have spent the last three days in Denver? Colorado makes my heart smile like no other place that I have been in the world. Colorado feels like home and every time I visit my soul longs to be here permanently. It has always been such a struggle between simultaneously wanting to live close to friends, family and the church...and to run to the mountains...where God speaks to me every day through nature! I haven't figured out that internal struggle yet and I am leaving it to Christ to move me in the direction He wants me to go....but, I can't help wishing His plan involves Colorado :).
Let us learn this lesson from Nehemiah: you never lighten the load unless first you have felt the pressure in your own soul. You are never used of God to bring blessing until God has opened your eyes and made you see things as they are. – Alan Redpath -
