Weird....


God works everything out in the end. That's not a question. Thats not a theory. That is the absolute truth. Everything I can possibly worry about is a moot point once God steps in and makes things clear. Most people wouldn't understand that. Trusting God involves way too much sacrifice. I didn't even completely trust God for the past year and a half but he still managed to show me who's got things under control. I get myself stuck in a mess of confusion and then try to get myself out of it, then, all of the sudden I'm out and I know that I'm not the one that did it. Today was one of those days that most people would look at as a horrible day. I woke up with all these worries and thoughts about what I need to do, and drastically just a handful of hours later, its all clear. Today, I lost my job. For the second time in 6 months I have found myself in sudden unemployment. No warning, not really anything that I did to deserve this. But with everything God's been doing in my life leading me up to today, it came as no surprise. I took it in stride, knowing that God is beginning to answer a prayer that I prayed just 12 hours before. My prayer was one of the first that I've ever prayed publicly that was in expectation of the next step. The vision of what God wants to do with my life is becoming clear, and as a result I will be leaving New Brunswick for a short while. Its not permanent, I just think God needs some time to prepare me for the next step which has everything to do with New Brunswick and what he originally called me to do here way back in March 2004. I'm only days away from my departure, and I don't think anyone knows. Except for a few. I don't want to make it a big deal. My hope is for me to disappear for a while and when I come back find, that no one really noticed that i was gone, but that they see a huge difference in my life and wonder what happened. That would be pretty awesome.

Hey Donnie--I hope you're doing some good emotional recuperating down there. You've had a lot of hard stuff dished to you of late.
