I Don't Know Anything

Everyone asks themselves this question at least 1.5 gazillion (not an exact number) times in their lives, and I can't seem to stop asking myself that same question lately...

What do I want to be when I grow up?

Why yes, I'm 18 years old and I have no idea what I want to be when I grow up, and you know what?? That is completely okay. Not knowing your future is completely OKAY! It's completely normal in fact!! The only thing I know FOR SURE, is my Father in Heaven will love me even when I have NO clue what the heck is going on. Just because I'm clueless, doesn't mean He is!

I just need to take a deep breath. In. Out. In. Out. I have to always remember that even though I might not know my future, my loving God has already been there and back.

One verse that has stuck with me a lot lately, and fits really well with this, is a verse from Psalm. "What a God! His road stretches straight and smooth! Every God direction is road-tested. Everyone who runs towards Him makes it" (Psalm 18:30 The Message).

So, God might take me somewhere I'm unfamiliar with, but it's not unfamiliar to Him. He's BEEN there! He's TESTED it already for me. My fear of the unknown future doesn't even have to exist, because HE exists. I find peace in knowing that God has already been in my future, and He'll walk right by my side all the way.

This week I encourage you to find peace in the unknown. Whatever it may be that has you worried, don't worry child! Your Father is working towards bringing you peace. You don't have to worry about the future.

PEACE and Blessings,

Olivia Ruby

Ps- You should listen to the song "The Unknown" by Anthem Lights! It is perfect for what I'm trying to say! And it's sung by attractive males with a catchy tune ;)
