Spread Your Wings and Prepare to Fly
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.- Colossians 3:17

"Couldn't wait to get going, but wasn't quite ready to leave"
As I sit here in the Seattle-Tacoma airport waiting to board the final leg of my journey to California I can't help but look back on the past eighteen years of my life. Everything that I have ever known, I left when I stepped on the plane. The security of home, the privacy of a room that I was blessed to call my own, the stability of routine.
Shattered...
But not in a bad way.
I am starting a new stage of life. And soon, this new life will be the norm. Every relationship, everything I have ever known is changing, but God has a plan in it all. So through it all I can feel peace. God is my stability. When everything else is changing, He is not. Knowing that, eliminates any feelings of restlessness, any doubts, any worries. I am His child and I am in His hands. And that, my friends, is a beautiful thought.
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.- Jeremiah 29:11
