I know its been a couple of weeks. A few people from my church family reminded me today that they haven't heard from me in a while. Things have been kinda crazy for me the past couple of weeks.
The 22nd was my birthday and a few of my friends planned to take me to Disneyland for three days. I had an amazing time with them. I know a lot of you are from the east coast so just to compare....Disneyland is a lot like Disneyworld, but a lot more fun and what seems like a lot more spread out. We did a lot of laughing, A LOT of walking, and a lot of sharing life with one another. I'm close with all three of them, but being in close quarters together for three and a half days, you get to know one another even better.
We were on our 8 hour drive back to Napa and I realized something as I was driving. Two of my friends were sleeping and the other one was reading his book, the music was turned down pretty low and it hit me. I'm so happy right now. I'm so happy to think that in just a few months time, I will be on a plane headed toward my destiny. I'm happy that I'm walking right toward God's purpose and plan for my life. I'm happy that I'm getting to spend these precious last moments with my friends. I'm happy that I'm getting a chance to take a break to go back east and spend some real time with my family. Most of all, I'm happy that I found a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Without Him, I wouldn't have any of these things. Without Him, I wouldn't be headed where I'm headed. Without Him, I would be trying to live my life on my own and would be failing miserably. I give God all the honor and glory for where He has brought me from and where I am headed, for who He has surrounded me with and all the support systems He has put in place for me. Without Him, I wouldn't have any of you.
They say Disneyland is the happiest place on earth. I say that can't be possible because the happiest place on earth is knowing Jesus as my personal Savior and walking in His will for my life.
Riding in the passenger seat,
