I've heard people say that God opens and closes doors in a persons life. Right now I am experiencing a combination...I would say that God is "clopening" doors in my life right now. And, while it is true that sometimes I feel like I am not sure I am coming or going...feelings can be deceiving. What is true is that I am not exactly coming or going...it is more like I am becoming. And I am not sure that makes sense to anyone...it is only beginning to make sense to me.
In the sketch I did today, there is a door with a welcome mat...instead of the mat welcoming me in....it is welcoming me out. It is like God beckoning me to trust and step through the door. welcoming me on a new adventure with him. I want to be courageous and authentic on my journey...sometimes I am neither...but that is what I yearn to be. So today, as I feel more comfortable than I did even yesterday about being on the threshold of a new chapter in my life I am comforted knowing that God has plans and they are good...plans to give me a future and a hope...my job is to seek him with my whole heart.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart
