One year ago today, I graduated from college. WOW! What an accomplishment. Truly, though. Like I was walking around today and feeling strength knowing I have been out of college one whole year today already. God has really given me a sense of awareness this past year. I've been more aware of my surroundings - the people around me and how they affect who I am as a person, my home and how that affects me, and where I work. I think these three things God has spoken to me a lot about this past year with just coming to know the comfort that is Him. I mean, my life is far from perfect and you know what it is not supposed to be. I feel like a huge expectation when you have a bachelors degree is that you should be making the big bucks somewhere fancy pancy. Well, since college I have struggled financially and it has been painful and frustrating but God wants me in this place, I think. God doesn't want me to struggle all the time, no, but God wants me to feel a dependence on Him. I truly feel closer to God than I ever have in my life. He has shown me miraculous things this past year that I may never have seen if I was comfortable. When we are comfortable we often think we can do this life on our own. I know I have struggled with this several times in the past. Wanting to be the ruler of my own life. Well you guys, let me just tell ya how stupid that is. We cannot and should not want to do life on our own. It is physically draining and mentally unstable. I believe God wants us to depend on Him for everything. Whether it be that small crush you have that is taking over your mind - GIVE IT TO HIM! Or that job interview that didn't go so well - GIVE IT TO HIM! Or the rejection letter after rejection letter from countless places - GIVE IT TO HIM! I just really feel that since I've literally given everything to Him I'm not worried about them anymore because I know that God has already created a plan for them. So, I encourage you to give even the littlest of things to God. He might surprise your outcome and bring more Glory to the situation than you ever could have imagined.
