Looking Forward

The future looms large on the horizon but as I look forward I am no longer filled with dread or doubt about where I will be or who I will be with. I used to question my future, my own judgment, and whether I would make the right decisions, but after a long quiet time today and some sage advice from a wiser woman than myself, I feel as though i can look to the future knowing that the Lord has my best at heart. How have I ever doubted that what He does is good; I don't see my future, but He does. Trusting Him has never been so hard, but I know that is all I have as reassurance that no matter what happens, what is meant to be will be, and all things work out for the best in the end. I just have to trust, continue to pray, and really rest on Him during this period in my life because only He provides peace that surpasses all understanding. No matter where I go to grad school or what job I get or where I move or who I end up with, I find joy and rest in the fact that God has already gone before me and He has already made the path ready for me to tread.
