First, let me say that I went back on my new years resolution a long time ago. I promised myself that I would write regularly on my blog. I failed with that resolution probably the first week of the new year. That’s why I hate resolutions! Too much pressure.

I stopped writing because I thought I didn’t have anything else to say because nothing in my life had changed. I figured what was the point of writing when no one could see (or read) the growth or be inspired to keep the faith. Nothing was changing for the better but what I have been finding out is nothing is changing for the worse either. I discovered to start appreciating the things that was around me because God was taking me to another level. Total immersion in faith.

Nothing immediately is changing because I need to understand what it means to fully rely on God and his purpose for me. If I had found a job that paid me the same or more than I was making at my last job I would not have a full understanding of what true faith means. The bible says, faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.” (NLT, Hebrews 11:1) I will find a job or more importantly a career in God’s timing not mine. Thought it is a very scary path to travel because of its unfamiliarity, I will not be afraid because “even if I shall walk in the valleys of the shadows of death, I will not be afraid of evil, because you are with me; your rod and your staff they comfort me.” (Aramaic Bible in Plain English, Psalms 23:4)

God has been showing me amazing things during this down time. He is showing me that I do inspire because of my faith walk that I am on. I tell my stories and give encouragement to the next person that may be walking in the valley of the shadows of death. I let people know that sometimes we have to walk in the shadows because we do need to let some things die so we can have a glorious resurrection.

So, I’m back. This is Where I Enter….. again!
