I'm realizing some things as I pack up and get ready for the fall semester. This semester is going to be about relationships. There is no question about that. That is going to mean getting to know the ladies in Phi Lamb better as well as demand more time, energy, discipline, and initiative on my part. Oh the great "personal growth opportunity." In this season of focusing on people (while learning to balance school), one of my biggest struggles will be living without knowing if one of those relationships will be "a more-than-friendship relationship." In more and more areas of my life, I'm seeing that my plans and desires may be good and right, but if that is not what God has purposed and planned for now, there is a reason. I have no right to know the reason (which is not my favorite thing to realize), but I can be completely sure that it is for my own good. Today, that means that I'm not living in the BCM house again and I don't have a boyfriend and I am still in Plano. And that is exactly where He wants me. This is reality, so my choice is how I look at my situation. Through God's perspective or through mine? With hope and faith or with self-pity, disappointment, and doubt? I think I'll go with the first perspective. It's based on just a little more insight and knowledge. :)
