Running!

I lived in Alberta while I went to Bible school. I love love love Alberta. I think my favourite part was the fact that I was only three hours from the Rocky Mountains!!! Ever since I came back home from Alberta, I have had a longing to go back there, and have been looking for a reason to go back.

In the past 2 months, I had been considering moving to Sylvan Lake, Alberta. My reason for going: I was running. Running from where God really wanted me. I wanted to get as far away as I could from where He wants me! I don’t want to admit this, but I have been running from where God has wanted me for the past two and a half years. For two and a half years God has placed on my heart to move to Regina. Three hours away from my family and friends. This August ,God again, made it known to me and it has come up many many times since then. My excuse for not going was always “I don’t know anybody there, I would be lonely”. Well, I really cant use that excuse anymore!!!! :)

So how come I don’t want to go there? Whats my reason? I’m scared to go there, scared because of two family members that live there. I know my chances of seeing them there are slim, but it still scares me big time. If they saw me, I really don’t know what they would do to me but it would not be pleasant. Thinking about what they would do to me just makes me go weak in the knees.

So how come God wants me there? I really don’t know. The only way to find out is to stop running, trust God and go where He wants me to go!

So I am praying, praying that God gives me courage, wisdom and strength to make this move and face whatever challenges lay ahead of me.

　

Shalom!
