I am headed to Atlanta. It is amazing to think that four years ago this month I started out in a new city with all new people. I remember how scared and lonely I felt and how I had no idea who I was. It is amazing that today I sit here in awe at who God has allowed me to be and what I have been blessed to experience.
Now I am starting all over again, new city, new outlook because this time I know that I am not alone. This time I have waiting near by a supportive sister, a church home, and a steadfast relationship with God.
Already there have been so many opportunities thrown my way and I have yet to move there. I hate to say it but I’m anxious. However, I am constantly reminding myself of Philippians 4:4-9
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
AMEN!
Keep Calm and Carry On
