The Journey Continues


As far as I can tell, today was my last day as a painter. For the last three months I have been blessed to have, as I affectionately called it, an "inbetween job". Something to hold me over until my "other job" begins. But these past three months have been so much more than just an opportunity to stash away cash and exist until my "real life" starts. 

    It only has three rotating sides!
  • I had the opportunity to spend a day crawling through a cave in southern Indiana
    
  • I visited the world's largest Rubik's cube (slightly disappointing, especially since it wasn't even a true Rubik's cube. Jacob, Rob and I have plans to build our own)
  • I finished reading "The New Testament and the People of God". I know it doesn't sound like much, but it was a big deal to me
I'll admit that this list doesn't look all that impressive.
But I've been able to invest quality time into friends and family. And I've learned a lot about myself and how I interact with God.



More than anything else though, I have been overwhelmed with the goodness of God. He is taking really good care of me...he always has. As I reflect on my journey up to this point, I am truly in awe of my King. Sometimes it seems that he orchestrates complicated strings of events just to get me into the position where he wants me.
My anticipation for the next 2-3 months is growing everyday. I cannot wait until I am able to give my full, undivided attention to the one who deserves it the most!
