I have about three weeks left here in the Philippines, an ample amount of time. But, I find myself getting restless. I have discovered a pattern in my life. Near the end of any of my adventures, I get restless and want to be done and move on to other things.

In high school, my senior year came and I was so ready to get out; to graduate and move  on to earn big dollars at the Pig. Later I made the decision to do Com

Life, and I was ready to leave Zion and find some independence in GA, although I didn't want to leave the great ol'Pig. Hehe. As ComLife came to an end, I found myself in the last few months getting restless and something inside me wanting to move on. I had to practically seat belt myself there.

Now, it's happening again, I am ready to move on and start a new adventure. I've thought to myself,

"Self! Why? Why do you do this? Are you not content and happy where you are?"

No, I am, I am quite content. I love the ministry I'm involved in, the relationships I've made, and the people I live with, of course things are not perfect here, but, where are things perfect? Life is pleasant for me here.

This time I don't want to be restless and fidgety. I've been praying and asking the Lord for more discipline in my life; to be satisfied these next few weeks and not to look to the future and what it holds for me; to focus on the ‘here and now‘. My desire isn't to leave here now so I can go to my future, but many times that is what my flesh wants; it wants to live in the future...but how in the world can it do that?

I am trying to break the pattern. Please partner with me in prayer. I want to finish strong, to make these next few weeks the most I can. To live in the ‘here and now‘.

Also, I will not post what I'm doing next in life, till I leave the Philippines, then I'll tell all of it!

PS. Life is "adventure".
