Strength Will Rise

  A few months ago, I told my mom in the car on the way to school one morning,

  "I want to grow this summer. I want to make a difference. I want to be challenged...I want to become more of the woman that God has created me to be..."

   At the time, I was referring to taking a mission trip. With a possibility of 5 different mission trips, all to different countries, the outlook of growing in the Lord and making a difference looked very probable. Although, God kept closing the doors.
   
  Looking back, even though it's still in the month of July, I'm beginning to see why. Without typing all the chaos out, God IS growing me into the woman He's created me to be, right in my home town. This summer has been the most challenging, the most emotional, but by far; the most rewarding in the benefits that will be reaped later. Clearer direction as to where my passions and my desires meet God's plan for my life has been given. Strength has been discovered even in my weakest hour. God's voice has become more than the whisper it used to always be.
