What is happening?!?
Life is crazy. God is good. I have no idea what tomorrow holds for me.
Last week, well actually, just days ago, I was directing complaints to God that He wasn’t providing for me and that I was bored. But, and this is a pretty big thing for me, I didn’t stop at complaining. I went further: I apologized for complaining that the LORD, creator of the universe, hadn’t provided for me in the way that I had planned for Him to. I apologized for expecting Him to do so, because after all, “But who are you, a human being, to talk back to God? “Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, ‘Why did you make me like this?’”
I had no right to complain about God’s actions (or inaction as I perceived it to be) or misjudge His intentions, because I am the created not the creator.
Wouldn’t you know it, the very next day after I had apologized, I got a call for an interview. Right now; yes, at this very minute, I am sitting in a friend’s apartment in College Station, Texas. I am waiting not so patiently and pretty anxiously for this interview that will happen tomorrow.
God has plans. I don’t know if they are to give me a job at Texas A&M or just to get me into contact with friends that I have let slip through my realm of everyday thought. But I do know, that this trip has been crazy (and I’ve only been at A&M for 4 hours), awesome, and much needed. (Ask me about the drive sometime)
I don’t know what the outcome of tomorrow’s interview will be: I don’t know if I’ll be headed back to Ohio after 3 days or if I’ll be looking for a place to live for the next year. I do know that I am super excited to see what God will do next and where I’m going to be.
Living in Grace
