In Him I hope

Soon, what I have worked for and at for 21 years will be over.  Its nudging I have ignored, denied and just plain reasoned away for a good while.  Until, I could no longer.  Still and yet, its persistence doesn’t make the decision to leave an easy one. 

I wonder if I am too old to seek something new.  Is it too late to cradle a dream in my arms that I have long hidden in my heart?  If I consider things in terms of what seems “reasonable” by this world, it just doesn’t seem to be the right time. 

Yet, I hear Him whisper, “yes, now.”  So, I follow.  I say “goodbye” to that which has been so kind and “hello” to things I have only dreamt about. 

In the midst of it all, I seek to remember…

“The LORD is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in him.”  -Lamentations 3:24

    Denise,
    It’s NEVER too late. God’s timing is perfect and He will use this time right now to push you to and through dreams. Because if I have learned anything about you so far it’s that your heart wants what the Lord places in it, and he wants to give you those desires. I am so excited to see the way that he uses the next season of your life.
    Thank you for being an example of what a Godly woman is called to be.

      His timing is perfect. Learning to trust more than doubt. It is a faith stretch for one who likes order and control! :o) Learning to lean on him!

    Sweet friend I am so excited to see what God has for you in this next year. You have been such a source of strength as you have encouraged me to follow and chase the desires He has placed in my heart. I continue to seek God’s favor upon you as He reveals what is your next chapter 🙂
