life isn't a piece of cake

man, life can be rough sometimes. it seems like this has been the case for me and lacey lately. in a lot of different areas: friends, ministry, the future, church.

i don't want to go into a lot of details, but for us, it's one of those defining seasons. we have a lot going through our heads now and it just doesn't make sense. i feel alone and stuck. stuck trying to find myself and the route to my purpose, stuck away from people i love, just stuck in a very frustrating situation.

i'm just walking because that's all i know to do. i'm walking down this path that i know leads to god, but it's blank before me and i can't quite make out the next step. but as erwin mcmanus says, "go until you get a no." i'm just going to keep going until he says to stop. i've got to.

what's encouraging though is i still feel him near to me, and i still hear his voice.

all i know is that life is tough. jesus never promised luxury, but he did promise abundant life. i'm living that life. a life of assurance and trust in almighty god.

life isn't always a piece of cake. but when it's all said and done, i'm going to have my cake and eat it too.
