"Wait and See"

So I've decided that since I have some extra time on my hands, I should start a blog. I used to love writing on my xanga when I was in high school, but that no longer exists... haha. Anyway, I think this will be a good way for me to think/ write about some things, so I can try to figure a few things out about life after college.

I'm in this weird place now, between college and post-college life... I mean, I'm in the post-college life section now, but it still doesn't really seem like it. Everything keeps changing and transitioning all around me. I'm not good at all with transitions. I know that we need transitions in our lives to be healthy, but do they all have to happen at the same time?! I feel like nothing is staying the same... relationships are changing, work is changing and not exactly steady, life in general just keeps taking different turns... It's exciting sometimes, but lately, I haven't been excited about any of these transitions....

However, I have been reminded of Hebrews 13:8 these past few days. "Jesus is the SAME yesterday, today, and forever." Although everything in my life seems to be transitioning, moving on, changing, Jesus doesn't change. He is faithful to be constant and the same all the time. He doesn't change when my career changes... He doesn't change when everyone goes back to school, except for me... He is faithful and constant.... always the same, never changing.

The title of my blog is from a song by Brandon Heath. It talks about the fact that there are things happening in life sometimes that we don't understand... but as Christians, we have a hope in knowing that God is up to something awesome... we just have to "wait and see."

Just a part of this song... download it... It's awesome.

"Still wondering why I’m here
Still wrestling with my fear
But oh, He’s up to something
And the farther on I go
I’ve seen enough to know
That I’m, not here for nothing
He’s up to something
So now’s my time to be a man
Follow my heart as far as I can
No telling where I’m ending up tonight
I never slow down or so it seems
But singing my heart it’s one of my dreams
All I gotta do is hold on tight
There is hope for me yet
Because God won’t forget
All the plans he’s made for me
I have to wait and see
He’s not finished with me yet"

Thanks for reading...
