the beginning

Exams are in the midst right now. I'm not really scared, sort of have a nice peace around me, know God's going to work it out.

He also revealed my work to me through Conitras today, caught me by surprise. So this group God led me to last year out of loneliness, Saturdays in Christ, is a relatively new Bible study group here that helped tremendously in my growth. With my transfer on the rise, I was talking to Conitras (founder) about it, and she was basically like, well, let me know when Charleston is ready for Saturdays in Christ and let me know so I can help you out, fund it, and put you in charge.

then my eyes got big. Thanks God.

I need this type of direction in my life. I need a purpose. My family is a big purpose, and a big reason i need to come back to be a lil bit closer, or attempt to, and work on my sister and God and making that an equation....and just a lot of work on me too. I thank God for growth, and growing...cause He knows I've got a while to go.

and I know I fell off for a second, but I think that's why he ordered my steps the way he did in preparation for Charleston. It is by NO coincidence that the first people I've met there have been Christians. I just have to whisper a little thanks to His way, and accept the gifts as they come. This should be pretty exciting.

it's sort of humbling when i think about it. How, Chapel hill was a decision at first for ME. I swore at the time that I had control over my destiny, and that i was making the best decision for myself, and God allowed me to think that, then after He opened my eyes, and showed me that it was really He who allowed me not to screw up my life by going to Coastal Carolina, and growing me here, and will be putting me back where i think i really belonged in the first place, but was not ready and willing to accept that as his will. I dont want to think, but sometimes i can't help to, on what blessings i probably missed, but i can't discount the blessings i came across at chapel hill. C'Cora and Aiyana, Anthony, Abrina, Conitras, BSU, Saturdays in Christ, and just people wanting to love up on me, and allowing me to love up on them....

So now that i'm finally on the right path to my purpose, wow, i dont so much know what it holds...i must be ready for the unveiling.

let there be light...

so, i realized with the popularity of my livejournal i could no longer fully express everything going on in my world without fear from the outside world seeping in. Besides, that was of a life in UNC Chapel hill, and time are-a-changing, so i need to change with it.

nothing will look the same anymore.

so here's to realness, no-holding-back journaling. we'll see how this goes.
