No rest for the faithless

When I look back on who I used to be compared to now I laugh. My old self would never believe I'd turn out the way I am now. Constantly being chastised by my mother about my faith and beliefs. Well she was right in the end like all moms are. You can't ever prove mom wrong, she's been in the game longer than me. I never believed the idea of religion should be pushed onto non believers because what it comes down to is a personal choice. I'd find myself saying I'd never tell someone about God or why you should have faith in him. Now so much has happened in my life that I feel its a crime to not share how much better life can be if you just put a little trust in the man upstairs.

I come home to find people I care about in a rutt. They have problems that make the ones I had seem like nothing. I try to tell them to just ask for help. You'd be surprised at what can happen by just taking that little step. I have been planning on moving home for long time before I actually did it. I had a plan but it seemed so far fetched and as the months creeped by the plan began to fall apart. I had no idea how I was going to get home. I was praying before all of this and after. I got no answer though. Why am I saying all of this if after the months and months of praying, I did not get an answer or any clarification that I'll be alright. Because I already had the answer. A few months into moving to California, I ventured to a new church and I made a great friend. Turns out that friend would be the answer to how I would get home. You can say that it was just coincidence or luck but I know what it was. It was a plan executed long before I even knew what I wanted.

You want an answer? You have to ask and be patient because the solution is most likely already in the works as you ask for it. You want something? You have to ask if you should go after it. If you are meant to go after it then you'll be constantly pushed to chase. I am being pushed right now to chase something I know is a lost cause. For some reason though, I am seeing the signs everywhere no matter how hard I try to ignore them and go on with my life. I'm being lead in a direction that I can't control and I must say... I love it. So I reccomend sitting back, asking for help and let faith take the wheel now. You're in for something that will change your life forever.
