I know I am where I should be

Tonight, for the first time in a long time, I felt like I was where I should be. There was nothing that could have fit better then the events that lined up tonight. The last couple months I have been discourages again and again, there are three blogs that testify to that fact in my blog alone. I have felt like "a fish out of water" or as my friend said, "a piece waiting to fit in the puzzle" for so long, and in the back of my mind I have always wondered if I should even be here. Tonight told me that I am where I should be.

After class I went to the coffee shop for no reason, but to just see who was around, I ended up pick up a couple of Jones before I headed out. I looked down the hall and I notices that my best friend was walking down the hall toward me. I stopped and waited for her and I said something, to which she replied, would it be ok if we didn't talk? To this I was like, "oh, she is just got done with Chapel and wanted to take it in or pray to God alittle." So I was like ok, that is all cool.

As we walked she then opened up and started talking to me, she talked about something that were pressing hard on her and how she really needed to get them out. So we walked up to faith and talked. We got to her destination only to find that no one was there and she couldn't reach anyone about it. So I just invited her to continue to talk and come back to my apartment while she waited out of the cold night air. As we waited, we talked. Both of us were able to talk freely about what they were feeling and the weight was just lifted off both of our chests. The weight of our spiritual lives were lifted and freed. The burden of our secrets were gone, because they were no longer secrets. It was amazing that the time that we finished, the majority of our feelings and conversation, that she decided to check and see if they were home.

They were home and thus I walked her to the house and together we went into the house to chat with the family we both are getting to know pretty well. As we talked I to him and her to his wife, it became more and more apparent that God really set this night up long before my crappy months or the heaps of her burdens. For again the right place and right time came out. The wife asked me if I wanted to check out their daughter's ankle, because she rolled it the night before. So I after I was able to assess and give my nursing opinion I just felt so wanted/needed and complete. That I was in that hour of time or more, I was in God's will and there was no denying that fact.

So after I said my good-byes I headed home to finish my homework and right after I finished the more difficult of my two assignments, my roommate asked me if I wanted to watch a movie with him. This was cool cause I rarely get to see him if at all because he is always spending time with his gf. So I was like ok... I can handle two things at once. So together we watched Signs. A movie about God's hand in everything, that nothing is by chance but every word and event is there for a reason. There was this peace there that i have not had in a long time, that I was where I was suppose to be, cause I even got my last assignment in on time!

So Thank you God! I thank you that you are in control of my life, that I really don't have it all together, but you hold me in your hands. That you guide my every step, that in my trials you are there with me and have a plan for it. That the trails and snares that the devil throws at me, you use them for good. I thank you that the flaming arrows that are shot at me, are taking down by the shield of faith that you have given to me. That when I look at the armor I have not been wearing, it says property of God, and I know that it is perfect because it is yours! Bless me Father, for I am your son. Keep me Father in your arms and never let me go.
