Changing



I miss being small.
Lately I find myself changing a lot. Things are more real. Problems trouble me more, and joys I experience so much deeper. I had a conversation with my Mother about wishing I was older. She said not to wish it away. I think I'm beginning to see it. I'm getting ready to close a chapter in my life. I will never get this time back. In some ways it is scary, and in others it is exciting. God gave me a beautiful childhood,a beautiful teenhood(is that a word?),and soon(January 25,2014) I will be entering adulthood. Since I'm graduating a year early some of it will come early I suppose. In some ways I feel it already has. Inside I am changing. I can see so much now how God is shaping and molding me into who He wants me to be. Sometimes it hurts,sometimes it's joyful. The long and the short of it is, life is a grand adventure. It has its peaks and valleys,but I wouldn't trade my life for anything. God has a plan for my life. I can't see it,but I know it is there. Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. I know this probably has made little sense,but to all of my lovely readers,just remember......God has a plan for you. He is shaping you and molding you. He loves you. Each person is special. You have a place in this world.....

It was scary for me too, growing up and making the change from childhood to adulthood. But you, like me, are blessed to know Jesus and a wonderful family support! : ) Besides, with family and good friends it can be an exciting adventure! :D And congrats on graduating a year early!
