Message: Joy is here, SO WAKE UP!! :)
Life can be so unexpected. All the planning in the world can sometimes never have you prepared enough to handle some of the things that happen in our lives. A lot of the time it is during these times in our lives that we find ourselves in the hallways of life.
You know what I mean....
You aren't where you were but you definitely aren't where you are suppose to be. So while you are in this waiting place your mind is going 100mph. You are trying to figure out what happened, why are you where you are, and what could you have done differently. Life is crazy amazing in the case that, all of our decisions somehow connect with where we are right now.
As for me...
I haven't had the easiest college experience. A lot of the time, it was me trying to discover myself that made things so much more difficult. I am a psych student. So people would assume that I analyze others, no hunnies, I analyze myself. Which can be sooooooooo annoying. The thing is, I am the type of person that is honest with herself, when I know I can do better, I expect better from myself..even if I am not mentally or spiritually mature enough yet. This is sometimes a great thing, other times it's just personal abuse. So God has been showing me, that I am not as independent as my expectations expect me to be. So I am personally still coping with all this realness He is throwing at me. I am just so glad that He is constantly reassuring me that He has my back, even when I don't have my own.
I say all that to say this. Sometimes we need those hallways in life. Not to realize some life altering change but to simply realize that God still loves us, even in our unsure moments. His love. Those hallways come along right at those moments when we get too excited about which door to enter into next. Those hallways are meant to remind us that before our journeys even begun, in between the ones that have already occurred, God was still there and will always remain. Those random moments in the hallway can give you so much joy and strength if you use them right! I promise ;)
