So....this is my first ever blog and I'm not exactly sure where this is going to go. First off let me say, I don't know how to sail. I have never been, and know nothing about it. I like to think that someday maybe I will try it, but I am kind of a big chicken and I'd probably be terrified that the boat would tip over. So the title of my blog isn't really about "sailing" it is more of a metaphor; about making sure that my focuses in life are in order so I can have....smoother sailing? Ha. Well this thing called life has certainly been filled with times of "rough seas" these past 12+ months and it has caused me to reevaulate my thinking. My anchor (my faith) in life was set a long time ago and during these ups and downs I have been been put to the test of how much do I really trust God with my future. I have learned a lot during my short 26 years of life and they are lessons I wouldn't trade for anything. My faith has deepened during these unplanned times of difficulties, the pain has been deep but the growth has been worth it. During difficulties we are able to see what we are truly made of, what we believe, and who we really put our faith in. I stand in the midst of a storm and I can say I truly feel safe. I trust God with my life and I know there is always a bigger picture that I cannot see, which sometimes I hate but other times I am grateful for!
So, this blog might be a smorgasbord of life lessons, memories, funny stories, and dreams for the future. Whatever this may be thanks for reading!
