Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with cries of joy. How awesome is the LORD Most High, the great King over all the earth! Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises. For God is the King of all the earth; sing to him a psalm of praise.
-Psalm 47:1-2, 6-7

Faithfulness
Recently I've been thinking more and more about the internship placement process I've walked through this past year...planning to go to NYC, then ending up in the Philippines; planning to do domestic child/family development, ending up doing international economic development; having all these options to do research in areas I'm familiar with, on topics I've looked into on my own, but then actually committing to do research in a field I have no experience in whatsoever (other than the research I did for my research paper). But, you know, our God really is awesome! I love that he laid all these options before me, blinded my eyes to these obscurities while I was walking, and then opened my eyes to the amazing way he had been guiding me all along - I never would have willingly made any of these choices on my own. I know that whatever fruit I reap from this trip will solely be His doing because, really, I am not able, but He is able.

I find it interesting how God always has us do things we would never expect :)
ReplyDeleteHey, Jessica! I am catching up on all of your blogs...praying for you as I read! ;) The 47th Psalm is one I sang in the children's choir a LONG time ago and just reading it brings the tune to mind. What an awesome call to worship for my morning...I thank the Lord for how He works!
