What a wonderful day I had. Another day of getting some work done, spending time with the family and meeting some new people in this wonderful community of Culpeper.
In the last year, God has shown me repeatedly that He will not reveal His plans for me for the distant future. As much as I really desire to know "the scoop", that's just not His style. God promises me that His Word is a lamp to my feet. And just the other day I was sharing with someone about how relevant that promise - that Truth - is becoming in my life once again.
A lamp... Not a spotlight. Not a floodlight. Not a light that will shine miles down the path of life for me at my convenience so I can always feel comfortable. God's Word is a lamp that shines just bright enough for me to take the next step without falling. It's a lamp that keeps me safe in the midst of darkness. A lamp that keeps my trust anchored on Him and nothing else.
God has spoken into my life. He has drawn me to Him. He has done miracles in me and through me. And recently He has called me across the country to do His will here in Culpeper. It would have been easy to say, "I'm not going anywhere until You tell me what's going to happen." But I would have missed the adventure. I would have missed the blessings. I would have missed the miracles that He will do in and through COAHC. I'm so glad I'm here. I'm so glad that God's Word has spoken into my life and called me.
