Moving on.

A lot changed since I last blogged. A lot. Near the last few days of July, I ended things with my boyfriend (well, ex now). I had known for a couple of months prior to that day that I needed to break up with him. He wasn't who I was supposed to be with anymore..but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I was living my mundane life that had no excitement and barely any happiness. Like I told some friends of mine when explaining our relationship...it was good, but it wasn't great. It wasn't what I wanted. Yes, I could settle for an alright relationship, but why do that at my age? Why stop searching and seeking for the one that God has for you? After thinking about that over and over, my siblings randomly brought our relationship up. I broke. I knew God was confirming what I needed to do and that He was going to give me the strength to say "enoughs enough!"..and He did. The next day we broke up. Now I'm not saying that it was easy afterwards. Obviously you're going to hurt after realizing that your never going to see the person that you once loved ever again. It's a strange feeling. After we broke up however, God gave me this overwhelming peace and excitement for the future. I couldn't wait to work on me. To see what God wanted to do through me in this next season. Well here is what has happened: He's opened up amazing doors at my church to be our young adult group's worship leader. He's opened up the door for me to become a youth leader. He's given me great opportunities to talk to my fellow coworkers about Christ. He's brought some amazing people into my life. And He's even blessed me financially. But if I hadn't of moved out of where I was comfortable, none of these things could've happened. I wouldn't have been prepared and I basically would've been a hypocrite. But God forgives. And He blesses us even when we know we don't deserve it. He is always faithful and can and will bring us out of issues..but only when we're ready and when we ask for Him to help us.
