God Knows Best.

School as always has been amazing, I am learning so many new things and am getting spoken into by my classmates, leaders and speakers continually.
One thing that I have gotten huge revelation on this year so far is to ask God what my passions, dreams, and hopes are. I have been in this season for quite some time now of not knowing what I am truly passionate about and what I want to do with my life and how do I want my life to make its imprint on this world. Ever since GX God has just been rearranging my life and I am seeing the need so much more now for Him to take the lead. God has definitely got bigger dreams for me than I do for myself, and I have full confidence in Him and His ability to lead me.
The other day I was talking to God and expressing my confused state of slight stagnancy, although I feel like I will be at Bethel for a while longer, I don't know exactly what I am to focus on, and His simple yet profound response was "You never asked Me". It makes me laugh when I realize that I never asked my Creator what my purpose is, and how He tells me so simply why I don't know my destiny yet. Sometimes He leaves our destinies a mystery...but sometimes we leave our destinies a mystery because we fail to ask God "what am I?".
Since then I have come to the realization as to how important it is to daily as God "what am I?". He answers best, He knows best. I love God so much for how He talks to me in a way that can most impact me, simple. He doesn't give some huge theological, philosophical response, He knows my language just like He knows your language.
Now the challenge.
Will I remind myself to ask God to remind me who I am. In doing so the answer of the question hidden below the surface of that question..."what's my purpose?". I will most definitely try, and I would recommend you to do the same.
God does know best.


Jeremiah 29:11

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
