I made it across the country...




I spent the last week in North Carolina. We drove, and it was epic. I had alot of fun, I am very glad to be back in my home state, though.




I've spent alot of time today thinking about this :
17The LORD said, "Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do, 18seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him? 19For I have chosen him, that he may command his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing righteousness and justice, so that the LORD may bring to Abraham what he has promised him." - Genesis 18:17-19


I don't know God's plan in why he does things. Recently, I don't understand why God allows us to get hurt, and feel like we are being dragged through a trench with tons of barbed wire and pointy rocks. That is a mystery to me - But I guess that's who God is. It's kind of frustrating, but I guess at some point, this pain will be worth it, and I'll understand who God is better.

This verse reminds me that He has a plan for me - and He calls me to intimacy with Him, and only Him. He has chosen me - and because I am a believer, I am guaranteed the same promises he promised Abraham (It says that in Galatians). Thats so comforting.




I'm thinking about being crafty later tonight. I'll let you know, blog world, how it goes.
