there is a time for everything

There is a time for everything, a season for every activity under the heavens.
-Ecclesiastes 3:1

This summer has been a summer of change(s).

I graduated from the university. My boyfriend and I split. I moved to South Carolina. I'm working at a new bbw location (with hopes of finding a full time job soon *crossing fingers*). And I'm searching for my first home of my own (*again, crossing fingers*).

Many changes have taken place as I have begun a new chapter in my life. Some of these changes have been difficult and even painful while others have been exciting and empowering. However, all of these changes have challenged me and pushed me to grow, often in ways I didn't imagine or expect.

After all the tears and heartache; laughs and smiles, I wouldn't do anything differently. It hasn't been easy and it won't always be easy. But there are two things I know for certain:

1) The LORD is with me, always. I may be a lamb among wolves, but the lion is patting by my side.

2) God did not say "With Christ all things are easy" or "I can do all things with ease through Christ who strengthens me." God did say "With Christ all things are possible and "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." The path head is not easy, but it is possible.

And so I walk in confindence with the my God now, and through the changes to come.
