Discovering the Obvious...

     So last night, like every night, I was lying there on the floor, (yes, I sleep on the floor. The lack of a bed in the room leaves more floor space for other things) trying to go to sleep, but all the thoughts in my head kept me up. So I started to ask God some questions. I asked about some of the things I've posted here; about my work with CEF, what I'm going to do over the summer, how I'm going to pay for CMI, which is coming up in the fall, and what I'm going to do after that. You see, I live my life by a simple set of rules, but I never really refined them until recently, when people started asking me what I would do in any given situation. It was then that I came up with one simple saying that defined it all. "Pray about it, and go on with life. When God wants to show you the answer, He'll show you, and you'll know." That was why I was asking God all these questions. Asking Him to show me what I needed to be shown, at His time and place.
     Of course, I didn't expect Him to answer so quickly. If you have been following my blog for awhile, or if you've gone back and read posts that you missed, you know that I've had this vision of a stained glass door of sorts that has been following me around. I've mentioned that I had some suspicions as to what was behind it, and some possible hints from God about what it led to, but now I'm convinced I know exactly what is behind it, I just don't know when I'll get to open the door. It was almost like God said, "What do you want Me to do? Put up a big neon sign with the answer!?!" God had already showed me, but I wasn't trusting what my brain was telling me. I couldn't bring myself to believe that the little hint was really God, and not just me twisting something to fit what I wanted. So like I said, when God wants to show you, He'll show you. Just ask Him and wait for His reply.
     So you could say, I discovered the obvious today. But however you want to put, I know I'm right where God wants me to be, and I'm really excited to see what He is going to do next!
