The last time I was at Rainbow Row I was preparing to finish the last week of the most fun and difficult summer of my life. I was starting my major classes for multimedia journalism and I had just begun the journey to creating the @delight_unf chapter.
A year and a half ago I had little care of the world beyond my college safety net. I even used to say, “I’m fine if God doesn’t tell me what I’m supposed to do until a week after graduation!”
Approximately four months from graduation, that is not the peace I’m feeling now🥴
Here I am again, this time walking into my last semester leading Delight UNF, beginning my internship at the end of my college career, soaking up time surrounded by the best gals in the world and in a relationship with the most amazing man!!
Like most everyone, 2020 hasn’t been easy. I have done more reflecting and redirection this year than my whole life combined, but through the craziness God has broken me in the best way.
He has exposed my weaknesses and insecurities which has required me to consistently dwell in Him. He has been laying the foundation for what is to come by teaching me what it looks like to trust Him while my world beyond graduation is unknown.
As we step into this next year I am choosing to TRUST...
Even when I can’t see
Even when things don’t go as I plan
Even when I’m afraid (of struggles and blessings)
Because I know my God holds the future.
I will choose joy and to treasure the moments and memories I am making in this stage of life and let tomorrow worry about itself.
“People do their best making plans for their lives, but the Eternal guides each step.”
Proverbs 16:9
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”
Proverbs 3:5-6
