Something really hit me today. I graduate in about 218 days. I enter the real world is less than a year. This next year things are really starting to count. Part of that scares me. How do I know I'm ready for something that big? But how will I found out without taking that step? I've decided I want to move out next year. Yes, it will take a lot of planning and budgeting for sure, but I know it's something I want to do. I've been praying about it and that the Lord guide my steps. He's definitely doing so. He's already beginning to show me different things that will benefit for next year. God's very smart. He knows what He's doing and He will absolutely out you on the right path. Everything He puts in your path is to grow and strengthen your for your future. What I want you to hear is, don't give up. I really feel like the Lord is putting "Don't give up" on my heart for some people. Whether you even read this or just click on the link, do not give up. Every trial, every rough patch, every joyful moment, is shaping you for tomorrow. Do not give up now. Keep going. He will hold you up.

Earlier today my mom said something that kind of jumped out at me. She mentioned something in Habakkuk 3. But Habakkuk 3 wasn't what spoke to me. It was Habakkuk. So, me being who I am, I went to Habakkuk to see what God was trying to tell me. I start reading in the first chapter and found something I had underlined a while back ago. It was in verse 5 of chapter one and it said "Look around at the godless nations. Look long and hard. Brace yourself for a shock. Something's about to take place, and you're going to find it hard to believe." Hello! That was a hit to the face. I'm about to be a senior in high school and all of my friends and myself have a huge desire for this year. A couple of my friends have encountered some situations where they were either thinking about moving schools, or were moving schools. All God. Talk about a leap of faith, right? But, that's just a small step for God. He sees everything and just sees those huge leaps of faith as tiny steps for His glory. God has called us to be the light for our schools. He has put a strong desire on all of our hearts to change our schools. And I not only think it will happen, but I know something HUGE is going to happen for His kingdom this school year. With the accountability from my other senior friends, we're going to shake His kingdom big time. I've been just sitting here for so long I can't take it anymore. I didn't know how I could before, but now I'm ready to rock it. I pray that not only do my friends and I be the light in our schools, but that all seniors realize they are looked up to. But not only juniors who watch their every move because next year they're it, but this incoming freshman. High school is scary for your first year! I knew I was overwhelmed! But are you going to sit there and laugh and an incoming freshman feeling lost or alone? No! Hello!? Would you want that? I don't think so. There is a revolution for God's kingdom coming this school year. I can't contain my excitement!!! There is not only going to be God's children coming home, but freedom from bondage that students never thought they would feel free from. There will be restoration, healing, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Chains will be broke. And the enemy will RUN when every single student wakes up. Because he's already defeated, but he will be even more so. I don't know if that's even possible, but with God all things are possible so I'm still shooting for it. I also encourage some of you struggling with waiting and when the next step will come. Habakkuk 2:3 says "This vision is for a future time. It describes the end, and it will be fulfilled. If it seems slow in coming, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It will not be delayed." How comforting is that? Whether it be the end of the wilderness for you, the end of a season, the end of a specific part of your walk God is taking you on, or the end of time, God says in His word it will be fulfilled. And He says, also, it will NOT be delayed. Be world changers. Be His light and salt.

Alright, let me just say, God is way cooler than we give Him credit for. I admit, it's been a while since I have posted, but it's all in His timing, right? This summer God has really started to transform my heart. He has done things and grown me in ways I didn't even know were possible. Two months ago, I never would have thought I'd be this far in my walk with Him. Last night I heard a message from Eileen Hunter and man was she on fire. She talked about going from "Lame to Lethal" for God. How cool would it be to feel dangerous for God:)? She mentioned right when you wake up the enemy scurries because he's thinking "Oh no...here he or she goes again. She's awake and she's on fire." Hello?! I'm in!! Something my mom has told me lately is really listen to God for today, and tomorrow will work out. How true is that? Lemme tell ya, God has rocked my world. I have been sitting on a still roller coaster for Him. I'm SO tired of just sitting there!!! I'm ready for Him to ROCK my world. And lemme tell ya, He has. I really pray that people just spend time with Him. I spent five minutes listening to worship music before I got out of bed on day. It made all the difference. He's not asking for 6 hours! Although, that's how it should be. We sit there and think "I just have to spend an hour with Him then I get the rest if the day." Hello!? It should be the other way around! He should get 23 hours of our day and we have the other hour. After all, outlives are HIS. Just saying'. I'm back bloggin y'all. And I have so much on my heart I can't wait to share.
