Just like Jesus does

   

             It's quite ironic that the minute I decide to start a "travel blog" I stop traveling. 

Just like that life decided that I could use more homework, more work, more responsibilities. 

Starting at the beginning of this year I took off to California for a few days and since then I found myself almost every weekend heading somewhere new, somewhere where adventure awaited me. I could almost say that I was on a roll with heading somewhere north every month. That alone was just as ironic because at the beginning of this year I began my two year school program that had me sign my life away before I began. Yet somehow I found time on the weekends to get out and head somewhere. The busiest year of my life somehow also became the most relaxed. 

             I love traveling. Anywhere; anywhere you go in this world you will encounter our beautiful creator. Wether if it's starring out into the vast sea on the California coast or simply marveling at a tree down the street; God is present. So heading somewhere every weekend was really an escape for me; and escape from a busy school week, and escape to meditate on all God has done that week, and escape to recharge for the following week. With that being said, you can only imagine the crazy withdrawals I have been having these last few months from  going absolutely NOWHERE!

      I've opened this post multiple times these last few weeks, wondering what can I possibly update it with. But each time I've been reminded that I haven't gone anywhere and that I should probably get off and go finish my pile of homework or editing that I have screaming my name! I'm actually sitting in a cafe as we speak, drowning at a table all by myself in a pile of papers haha. Until I realized... 

      Until I realized I have been traveling! I have been more places these last two months then I've been all year. Not physically but spiritually and mentally. 

        

       It's been a crazy few months full of some highs and lows. I might have not always headed straight ahead on my path, my compass might have not always pointed north but that's the great thing about north. The gravitational pull will always bring your arrow around to point north, just like Jesus does. He always draws us back to him, to his love. So here I am back from another "adventure". I really wish I can sum all that has been going on in words. Maybe sometime this year I will find the words to  reflect back on this season of my life. The season of harvest. For that is all that I have been doing lately, harvesting Gods goodness, His undeserving goodness to me. If I can sum up all my rambling and leave you with one thing is that GOD IS WORTH WAITING ON. And even that alone sound absurd because who am I to say, God was worth my time. What value do I have to give to our all Mighty God? For it's in him alone that I find my value. 

So I rejoice in my victory I have found in Christ alone! 

The victory that has been brought through waiting and resting in Him. 

I waited patiently for the Lord;
    he turned to me and heard my cry.

Psalm 40:1

Thank you Jesus for always pointing us back to you!

May your compass always point to Him
