I keep hearing people talking about their walk of faith.. at first I had no idea what the heck that was.. but I wanted to start walkin' that's for sure. Before a couple years ago I never gave faith much of a thought. I went to church and youth group and that was it. Then I started getting older and asking questions about what I believed and what I wanted my life to reflect. Faith became a hugee question in my life. What was my faith? Was I living the way God wanted me to? What could I change? So many questions that I had no answers for. until.. I had a long discussion about God with my good friend. She knew her God and was living her life with him as a main focus. I was completely lost. How the heck did people even get God into their lives? I spent many nights lying in bed just thinking about how God had made an impact on my life. Then I remembered.. I was in Africa in the middle of a wildlife preserve, in a princess bed, talking about what faith was and how to live it out in everyday life. I didn't pay much thought to it then as I was only 16. Now a year later at 17 I wanna know Him and I want God in my life from now on. My new years resolutions changed from lose some weight, meet new friends, get good grades to find a person to help me in my walk of faith, start a one on one bible study, pray for things, let God into my heart for good, let Him take care of me because I can't do it all by myself.. I learned that the hard way. I have had a rough last couple of years but I know that God has a plan for me if I let Him lead me. I was scared at first but then I thought I need this. This will be good for me. My whole attitude about life changed. I was no longer just living for me I was living for God.
So from now on my life will be for God. I want to know Him and learn from Him and through him. I want God to have complete control. I'm letting go. He knows his plans for me and I know that I can trust in Him. He is my rock. He will always be with me.. even when others aren't. Scared and vulnerable I give myself to Him. I'm ready to see what he has to give me. I'm ready for the challenge, and I know I have many people who will help me through my walk. I'm taking it one step at a time.
