Life and Times

This past weekend I had the pleasure of driving 5 hours to central Indiana to be an usher in a friend's wedding. I lived Chad and a number of the other men standing up in his wedding for 3 years. And although those are 3 of my most fond years in recent memory, I found myself oddly out of place among my college buddies and the city of Anderson. Despite only having lived in Detroit for a year and a half now, I can sense that God has brought me to a place of comfortableness I have not known since I was in school.

This feeling of settling down into life and such has always plagued me. I love change, thrive on newness and hope for the unexpected simply because it is energizing to me. However, I am beginning to seek that God would not give me a geographic change as much as a perspective change on who He is in my life v. who I claim He is in my life. I want to be inspired and able to do something in response to God in my life and have the resources in place to do to because I am in a place where I know people, where I have allowed roots to grow down deep. And even though this may not be a permanent place or feeling - I am relishing the moment of simply BEING where I AM is at. That is a mind bender to me, but I remain because He has continued to remain in me even when and especially when I don't deserve it. And my heart because of all this - it is changing.
