Realizations

"The future can either be scary or exciting, i can generally be found on the confused end."

How true this statement has become. I'm not afraid of the future, but I'm also not jumping for joy as it comes near. I am enjoying living in the present, and not taking for granted the limited time I do have on this earth. So when it comes to future plans, I seem to find myself with my head tilted and a questioning look on my face. For a long time I thought I knew what I wanted and where I was going, but recently I have been forced to realize, that not all my dreams are in Gods will. I was recently having a conversation with a friend, and realized that much of my longings and desires were contradictory, and that I wouldn't be able to have it all, so confusion has begun to set in. Now, of course it doesn't help that I am prepping for finals, and ACT's, Senior pictures, College apps, Financial Aid, Scholarships, looking for work, and so the list goes on. but I truly believe that despite my confusion, I can be at peace knowing that God isn't confused about His plans for me, and that is what is keeping me going.

"For I know the plans I have for you"
Declares the Lord
"Plans to make you prosper,
Plans for a hope and a future."
