My Journey....Part 1: Everything Happens For a Reason

I believe that everything happens for a reason, heartbreaks happen to teach us how to Love, & what not to do to someone else's heart. Deaths of a Loved one teach us how to cherish the ones we still have here. Sometimes God purposely takes us out of one situation (i.e. a job , like me) to bring us into something new, something better. I would have never had the courage to leave my position & step out because I was comfortable where I was, Id become content in being stagnant....afraid of change & what that might mean, & so now I have no choice but to walk forward in search of something new. I believe I was let go specifically to find where God wants me to be, in order to prepare me for my next assignment in life. His Will, not my own, I must remember this Life is not about me, or what I want fmyself but what I can DO for others & what God wants for me. So as I lay my head to sleep tonight, I think back on many things I have gone through in the past few years that have certainly tested my heart & I realize I am still here, & that there HAS TO BE a real reason for that. I HAVE A PURPOSE & I will find it. So Lord, I ask; let YOUR will be done in my heart, in my soul & in my life. As I walk forward into a new journey, WALK WITH ME....I know You have more in mind for me in this world.... Show me. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
