Looking up...and ahead

A year ago...
Things were different to say the least. I was looking ahead with fear about graduating and finding a job.
Right now...
I am sitting in my apartment--paying for rent/ utilities/ cable/ internet. I am looking forward to work tomorrow. I am right where I was afraid I wouldn't be.

So what's missing?

A relationship. No, not a boyfriend. I think I'm missing a relationship with God. A real relationship. I have always had an on-again, off-again thing going on with God. I have tried to be more on-again...but sometimes its difficult. Sometimes life gets in the way, which is ironic considering that God gave me life. Shouldn't life be the reason we are close to God, not our excuse for being far from him?

So for Lent, I will be looking up at God for guidance. And looking ahead to what God will be doing in my life in the next year...
