Recently I have come to the conclusion that God literally just places in me in situations. Most of the time I have no idea why I do what I do...it could be my interests, a sudden urge to get up out of my chair and walk somewhere, or just doing what I'm doing...not really asking for anything, but the opportunity is open. I don't always get the full plan He has, but it's okay because He does.
And He has been confirming His complete faithfulness to me so many ways these past few weeks. I am humbled by his grace and the opportunity I am allowed to participate in. With my new job I have had the privilege of being able to interview and meet some well-known speakers which seems kind of surreal. Even more surreal than that though, today I got a phone call from the government school inviting me to a reception with Michele Bachmann after convo Wed with a limited guest list and then to a reception for the Attorney General of VA. I didn't really know how to react because I feel very undeserving. I am not the best or most rehearsed in politics. I care on a daily basis about the things closest to my heart--my family, best friends, academics, making people's days and being an encouragement, and having fun and sweet conversations.
I don't really belong sometimes in the world I've been in, but for some reason God is arranging the details, making the plans for me and giving me a phone call and placement. I don't expect my life to change on Wed or anything of the sorts, nor even to meet Bachmann, but the experience is priceless and just another way that God is showing Himself faithful to me as I stay faithful to the call He has on my life. Of this I'm sure, I'm glad that I have no idea what the future holds, because I'm pretty sure I'd be scared out of my mind. I like the moment by moment direction. I need that.
May I never take His direction on my life foregranted nor forget How good He really is.
