//:::DRUMROLL:::// {yer, that was suppose to be cool} I am off to Sydney next year... Not for a holiday or mini break but to... LIVE! For years I have said "I am not ever going to Bible College unless, God himself, comes down in the flesh and tells me to go!"
HA! Never, I mean... NEVER say something like that. I mean, God didn't come down in the flesh but he sure did reveal some things to me and sternly yet, graciously impressed on my heart not once BUT a few times {you could say that I am...stubborn ;) } that I was to go to Sydney and study at Hillsong College.
For me, that would require the BIGGEST faith step of my life. So, I am stepping out. Trusting and believing that he is going to catch me. I am leaving my family, friends,church, my job and everything that I know and love {even my Kitchen Aid...sob} everything that is sure,comfortable and known to embark on a journey that I am affectionately calling "A journey of a lifetime!"
There is something about doing things God's way. Something I have found about being in his will and follow his lead, there is a peace. I guess it's that peace that Paul writes about in Philippians ,"Peace that passes all understanding." I don't get it?! Well, my natural mind doesn't. It doesn't make any sense. How can it be that when you are in the midst of something so nerve wracking, scary and sad you can find your heart at peace? Thankful that God is Jehovah Shalom.
