Aside from homework, Nexus has been the most exciting thing for me this week. The speaker was a girl who graduated from SSU this past year and she spoke about what kind of soil we are. This came out of Mark and I loved it; she really inspired me to let my faith get deep down into my heart. I think it really goes with what I've kind of been struggling with for the last few months, trusting in God's plan. I think I'm just so anxious sometimes to get things done my way on my time that I forget that He has it all planned out for me. I keep telling Chloe and Kaitlin that I'm SO tired of dating and I just want to find "the one" already, but I'm making a true effort to be patient and not just settle. Liz and I have conversations about this all the time and how I should know that God will bring someone into my life when the time is right. And no, this is not me complaining about being single... It's me being impatient about finding out who I'm going to be spending the rest of my life with! But I got so excited when I was talking to my mom the other day; she told me about how she was laying in bed and started to wonder what fabulous guy God had lined up for me to marry. It just reminded me that all this WILL be worth the wait. I know that I'm doing the best thing for myself right now by not dating so that I can focus on God and His plan instead of trying to force my own plans to work. Sometimes faith can be such a hard thing for me.... But I'm doing my best and I know that if I delight myself in the Lord then He will give me the desires of my heart (:
Take this world from me, I don't need it anymore. I am finally free... My heart is spoken for. Oh and I praise You, oh and I worship You. Covered by Your love divine, child of the risen Lord. To hear You say "This one's mine"... My heart is spoken for.
