It was a time when I was discerning what direction the rest of my life would take--would I reesablish my accounting practice or would I follow my call to ministry. I worried about many things ... was I too old to return to college? What would formation be like? Being a woman, what struggles would I encounter? A very dear friend suggested that I was stressing so much about the "what ifs" of the future I was not enjoying the present!
Later, I found this verse that I've kept handy for times when I begin to drift back into the "what ifs" of my life ...
Your life is a sacred journey. And it is about change, growth, discovery, movement, transformation, continuously expanding your vision of what is possible, stretching your soul, learning to see clearly and deeply, listening to your intuition, taking courageous challenges at every step along the way. You are on the path... exactly where you are meant to be right now... And from here, you can only go forward, shaping your life story into a magnificent tale of triumph, of healing, of courage, of beauty, of wisdom, of power, of dignity, and of love.~~Caroline Adams
I want to keep this front and center during the rest of my MF journey!
