Leave.

I want to challenge you. Stop letting life just happen to you and around you. Waiting for the perfect moment for something and waiting for the perfect circumstance is sort of... fruitless. The perfect circumstances may never happen. The stars may never line up just like you think they should and God may not tell you in a burning bush, but good things are there and available. Sometimes they're inconvenient, but so worth it in the end. We were never promised ease, but I think in the end, when we get to sit on our porches and tell stories about the "good ol' days", it will all be worth it. The heartache and all. It all comes together to tell beautiful stories of who we are and who God is. If we let God get a hold of our box that we put our life in, let Him really shake it up, let Him do with it what He wants, how much more glorious will life be? SO MUCH! Sometimes, we look at things and think "Impossible." That's when God calls us to have courage. What if Joshua had though that the Battle of Jericho was impossible? What if Peter had thought walking onthe water was impossible? What if David waited until he thought the circumstances were perfect? What a beautiful picture of our God we have when all of these crazy things just come together. Just let God be God. He's better at it than we are, anyway...

Love. Peace. Life.
