Wow – we have a lot to catch up on.
I honestly can’t tell you the last time I even came to this blog.
I talked so much on here and in everyday life about pouring more time into it. I know I have a calling to help people and I know it’s through posts like these, but let’s be honest, I’ve avoided it out of embarrassment.
I didn’t want to be the corny girl who had a blog she wrote all of her feelings down in. I have the same feelings about YouTube. I’m even sitting here in a coffee shop in fear someone will look over my shoulder and judge me.
But I KNOW it’s my calling to help others through the eyes of my journey – and who am I to deny it out of fear.
So here I am, starting fresh, and giving you a life update.
I’m in a brand new, shiny city 10 hours away from everything I’ve ever known.
I moved to Richmond almost a month ago and I can 100% in confidence say it’s one of the hardest challenges I’ve faced.
The new age of technology is great. I can distract myself through FaceTime with my family, texting and snapchatting (bleh) my friends, and engage in mindless scrolling that only kills my self-confidence; but nothing can replace the feeling of being surrounded by people you love.
I spent DAYS sobbing every morning, knowing I made the right decision but questioning if it was the right timing. Was I ready to move so far away so fast? Is this the job position I’m supposed to be in? Am I even in the right corner of my field?
So many what-ifs, but I heard an amazing song this morning that reminded me of so many things.
The same God that brought me prosperity, loving relationships and joyous life is the same God that put me here to bring me all of those same things.
I know challenges will come and I know lessons will have to be learned, but I also know I am here to serve a greater purpose than I can even comprehend.
Why did my calling lead me here? I’m not sure, but I know I’m going all in and putting my faith in that same God.
There will be more to come and probably another pending life update, but I hope you guys continue to stick around and learn alongside me.
