He created the moon that reflects the sun,
He designed this World.
Our God is a designer. I always thought of him as a creator... which he is. To know what goes into designing something, making sure all works together, and see the end product; Our God did that for this World. More importantly for our lives.
I am unsure of what my future holds right now. I am unsure of where I'm going, but I know that God is answering every prayer that I pray. I have recently received answers to prayers that I only half-heartedly prayed. They were things that I wanted, not necessarily needed. He has delivered.
The most important has been challenges. When I am not challenged often enough, I get bored and that leads to drastic changes in life. Moving, Short Hair, and new Jobs. I prayed last year for challenges that made me learn new and exciting things daily. He delivered. I am learning so much about business, life, love, and farming. My farm adventures are fun. Chasing cows, Rolling out bails of hay, and feeding chickens. All in high heels... :)
The second prayer I prayed was for good friends. I have a lack here in East Texas. Seems everyone my age is married, has kids, and are settled in their lives. I normally do OK with this type, but it seems they think I'm strange for not following that path. This year.. I have become in involved with the College Age Ministry at my church. This has brought 3 of the most amazing friends into my life. It makes me miss my college friends, but these 3 are such a blessing. They seriously walked into my life the day after I prayed for better, stronger friendships.
The third was for a relationship. He has not answered this one completely, but has offered me options. The most important thing about the options he has given me, is that I have turned down the ones I know are not good for me. 2 guys that have been brought into my life, I know are just there to be friends, learn from each other, and remind me of my standards. It's almost like a test I'm passing. While it takes restraint when I'm with them... I know in the end I will benefit from holding out. So.. while he may not have the right guy asking me out right now, and yes... I have a guy in mind, I know that he is going to bring amazingness in his timing.
God's timing and design are amazing. It all works together for the best. It all makes life worth living. His design of this World, His People, and Our Lives astounds me every morning. I have been brought to my knees so much this last month, and am so gracious for God listening to my heart, not my words.
I pray for my friends daily, and I hope that those prayers are being answered as well. Prayer is an amazing and Powerful thing, created by an Amazing and Powerful God.
