God is Writing My Story

God is writing your story. Do you trust Him enough to let go of the pen?

God is Writing My Story
https://odysseyimages.s3.amazonaws.com/cropped_BJlIvzs3Z.jpeg


God is the writer of my story. I have a story; everyone does. My story reflects where I�ve been, where I am, and where I�m going. I may be co-writing this story, but God does the real work. He knew the beginning and He knows the end, so I�m just adding the small details.  He knew when and where I would be born. He knew my physical characteristics. He knew who my friends and family would be. He knew who I needed and who would change my life. God is all knowing. It�s crazy to think that He already knows what is in store for me. Even when I have no sense of direction, God still leads me down the right path. It�s His guidance that I have to thank him for everything in my life. 

He gave me free will to co-write my story. He gave me people who would lift me up. He gave me obstacles in life to test my faith and relationships. Sometimes, He even let people in my life for a reason or to teach me a lesson. He knew who I was even if I didn�t. Among all of these things and others, He gave me hope and happiness. 

In the past year specifically, I have realized how important it is to have faith in God�s plan. I used to plan for the future so much that I lost myself. I was no longer living in the present, and that�s when I realized that if I believe in God�s plan great things will happen. Now, I�m not saying that you don�t have to put in the work to get where you are wanting to go, but if you put in the work and believe in His plan, then it will all come together. You wouldn�t be reading this right now, if I wouldn�t have had put my faith in God�s plan. I had always loved writing, and because of a few people, my love for writing grew into what you are reading now. I had experienced a godwink. If you don�t know what a godwink is, let me explain. A godwink is an experience where you say, �Wow, what are the odds of that.� It�s simply a message from God giving you reassurance. It�s a sign that you are doing exactly what you should be doing.

There�s no telling when this chapter of my life is over, and a new one begins. There�s also no telling how many chapters there may be in my life or even your life. I�m fine with not knowing those things, as long as God is writing my story.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
