Comfort Zones

I wrote this as a note in my phone quite some time ago (February 5, 2015) and never got around to posting it. It has some lovely memories and a lot of confidence so I had to share!!! (: 

This last month has been a different one to say the least. To say the most, it has sucked. Moving back to college after break while everyone was going to classes and doing homework I have literally been playing the waiting game. Waiting to go to school, waiting to get a job, waiting for that job to finally put the pieces together so I can get started. Let me tell you, you think you would like to sit around the apartment and have now cares no worries, ya that ends in less then a week. We need things to do in order to keep our heads on straight and not go Insane. Well today the last piece of this puzzle was finally put in place and I got started. It was hard. It was scary. And it didn't feel like me at all. But it was right. Today was my first day of being a substitute teacher and I rocked it! It was the most fun day. I'm so glad my father in heaven has a perfect plan for my life. A plan that I know is far better and far more exciting than any plan I could ever come up with.

It's too easy to get frustrated. To not have faith in heavenly fathers plan for you. Even if you do have faith it's too easy to get distracted and lose that firm knowledge. Pray. When you do this and say I know this is what you want me to do and I know I can and will do it and do it well. There is a power that comes from that. A power that isn't measurable to others. But to you it will change everything. If you still struggle after that as I did, get a blessing. I promise that blessing will say things that you never even thought of. Last be brave. Get out of your comfort zones. I can't tell you how many times I was over tempted to give up on subbing and retreat to something less scary. But I never would have loved it as much as I love teaching. Teaching is my passion. God has always known that and sometimes he has to reassure me. But, I always have faith in him and his plan. It always comes together in the end.
