Moving Forward?

Have you ever had one of those moments where you are sitting still but something next to you is moving so you think that you are moving instead? You have this split second of confusion and you're not sure what's happening. I'm kinda having a reverse of that. In my split second of questioning I can say for sure I am the one moving.

Jason and I have been on this roller coaster ride this past year with finances, kids, jobs, and everything in between. We have lost jobs, cars, money, houses, and all sorts of stuff. My flesh keeps asking, "God, what is happening?" I went through times of anger, depression, and confusion. On the other side of it all though, God always had a plan. For such a long time things were moving around us and we were just sitting still. We stayed encouraged though that God was going to make a way.

Now, I find myself feeling like I'm moving and I'm sure that I am. God is showing me so many things that I need to see. It's like I'm finally starting to step into the places He has been preparing me for in the last year or so. I am learning how to seek after him even when everything is working against it, how to catch His vision for me now rather than my vision for myself in the future, and most of all that Jesus has got to be in the boat before I set sail.
