For the 3rd time in the past 6 months I have had my room situation altered, and subsequently rearranged. I spent about 4 hours moving around furniture in my room and loved every minute of it! You see, for the sake of irony, the interior design genius of my mother and sister has taken hold within me as well!
For those who have lived with me in dorm, I don't feel I'm out of place, saying my room setups always look pretty dang tasty! After 5 years in dorm, I know how to work the angles in these ever-so-versatile apartments. Of course before I can toot my own horn any further, it is worth recalling that I will be moving out in less than two months and the joy of my current setting shall be lost again...
It really seems there is a lot of change going on (and in particular), change with a lot of uncertainty! Where will I be living? Where will I be working? Where am I getting married? Which Mission organization do we join? Which country are we serving long term?
...I really don't know. But would you believe that living a life of devotion and obedience to Christ sometimes gets a little nomadic?
Abraham...Moses...Paul...to name a few...
Even with the strong, soul rendering instruction from the Most High God may leave the day-to-day details up to faith. He called Abraham to leave his home and travel to a new land, but as far as I know, that may have been the extent of the details for such a complex trip. But that "silence" does not mean He was unconcerned. For He does not remain silent if He is still providing day by day; revealing Himself little by little. Ask me what questions He HAS answered over the past few weeks and then try telling me I'm lost in a desert!
Lost? Definitely not. Even though I have no idea where I am most days.
I'm following.
Blessings,
Jake Rivers
