What do I know?

I spent the day praying, reading the bible and just seeking God's will in my life. I asked myself what do I know? 

I know what I want. I want to live differently than the normal American. I want to know God in the way those of the Bible do. I want to have an unshakable faith that believes all things are possible with the God who created this universe. I don't want to just say I believe this. I want to live in a way that displays this. I want to put all my trust in him and actually KNOW that my prayers are heard and they have power, His power.

I know what makes me happy. I'm happy when I help people. I'm happy when I can be with kids and just be myself. I'm happy when I take care of people. I'm happy when I can just be with people and talk about God.


I KNOW....

that God has a plan for me that is beyond what I can imagine. I know that if I choose to give my life to him and say, "Do what you want with this life," I will be more fulfilled than I could even imagine. I know that no amount of money can make me as fulfilled as I am when I give God my time and rid myself of distractions. This has been proven by the three summers I spent at Sommerset. I find myself discovering that the less I have, the happier I become. Some would say I have if backwards but I know that God's plan for me is something I will only find as I rid myself of distractions and seek him with all my mind, heart, and soul. I know he has put certain desires in my heart so that he can make them complete. Right now I don't know what the future holds but as long as I continue to put my trust in God I will be in good hands. I'm excited about the mysterious journey that he has placed before me. So, I don't know much but....

MOST IMPORTANTLY I KNOW THAT I DON'T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS. GOD DOES. THE ONLY WAY I CAN FIND THE ANSWERS IS TO SEEK HIM.

Your post encouraged me that God has a plan for me. Doubts and confusion have been plaguing me for a few days now, but I believe that God has better for me. I know that He does not want me to worry and fear tomorrow - but to live today in His strength.
