Going not Knowing

"Going not Knowing." That was the title of the message today at First Baptist Orlando. It was about Abraham and how he didn't know where he was going when God called him to a foreign land. 

This post isn't really an update with lots of fun memories and pictures. It's just something that I wanted to share, and something that I want to remember in the days and years to come. 

Today was my last Sunday at First Baptist here in Orlando and I was so blessed by this message. Like so many others, I am "going not knowing." The number one question I received last weekend when I was home was, "What are you doing when you move back home??" I wish that after almost nine months of living here at Disney, trying to figure everything out, that I had an answer to that question. But I don't. For months I, along with many others, have prayed for direction and for God to tell me what I'm supposed to do with my life. To this day I still don't have an answer, and as of today, I am okay with that. I know that God does have a plan for my life and He will reveal it to me in HIS time. So I'm stepping out on faith. One of the quotes that the pastor shared today was this: "Living a life of faith means never knowing where you are being led." -Oswald Chambers

My prayer is that in the next few days, weeks, and months as I face decisions that I will remember these four things: 
1) Our going is about obedience.
2) Our going is not based on what, but on Whom.
3) Our going is not about where, but Whose we are.
4) Our going never ends.

Like I said earlier, this post is just a reminder for me. The words I heard this morning were exactly what I needed to hear and I want to remember that. I am so blessed to have been able to have been able to worship at First Baptist during my time here, and it will always hold a special place in my heart.
