Transition...

Transition is defined as- the process or period of changing 

from one state or condition to another. 

All I can say is that is exactly what I am going through right now. Its a word I have constantly been using the past few months, and just trying to figure out what the heck is going on in my life. So many people have asked me, what's going with your life? Let's not kid ourselves, how in the world are we suppose to answer that kind of question? So, my answer to most is... I'm going through a transition right now! All I know is it's been a tough one at times, but I have been seeing the fruit come of this crazy time of transition in my life right now. So many people are going through many of the same things I am, looking for work, a place to leave, hoping to fit in somewhere and to just get through this period. 

During this period of uncertainty in my life, I have been blessed by many people and encouraged to not give up on a dream... a dream which includes me making Orange County my permanent home. There have also been the people in my life that say it is time to give up on this dream and just come back to the desert and deal with the fact that I have failed. I have chosen to hold onto what has given my heart life when I am feeling like I have failed. 

"God gives us desires in our hearts for a reason. They become dreams or a passion that we can not let go of. Just because a door has not been opened or a few have closed, does not mean we have to give up on that dream. It means that we have to keep praying and working hard, and in God's amazing timing, our desires and dreams will be fulfilled! Just as He had planned."

So, this Monday I am continuing on with being in transition and heading back out to the desert. But, its not because I have given up yet on this dream that has been placed in my heart, but rather for a simple reason... I have been told I can not live out of my car until I find work in Orange County. Yes, I know... a crazy idea, but I was actually considering it. However, this does not mean I will not be out here still being a part of the way God is moving in Orange County and in my life! It's just simply part of the crazy transition. 

God is moving in big ways in my life out here in Orange County and I know that He has a big plan, it's just a matter of His timing, which is never to early and never late... its always... just Perfect! So much growth is happening to, and I am finally experiencing things I have never experienced before, and I know that is all God's doing! I will keep my eyes on Jesus and know that I am safe and that He has a plan for this big transition I have been in and that makes me so excited!
