in the quietude.

I feel like I'm on a journey of discovery right now. Understanding my place in life. Understanding my motivation for the things that I do. Understanding what I'm doing here. Understanding how to just BE... 

There are a ton of things sprinting through my mind right now. God what is your place for me? What should be the root of my motivations? How can I trust You more deeply then myself in a society that trains people to be self-dependent? When can I become so able to listen to Your voice that all other noise is muted? 

I'm beginning to have a strong appreciation in the silence of being alone. For when I am alone, I am able to process some of these questions and thoughts. Yet, it is also in the quiet that I begin to get antsy and impatient as well...Dah! Oh, the longing for complete dependance upon the Lord in these times of seeming nothingness...which are really meant to be times of complete fulness.
