it is a firm foundation

 

and I will build my life upon Your love it is a firm foundation.

and I will put my trust in You alone and I will not retake it.

I don’t know if it is something to do with me or if this happens to everyone at this time of the year but from December 26th to probably the end of February, my life always just feels like one big question mark. I am not one of those people who makes big “new year resolution” plans but as January rolls around I always feel the pressure to make some sort of big life change and set a theme for the year. This year is no different but at the same time it is because I have no way of even making a rough plan to follow in 2019. The amount of times I have said I don’t know in the last 2 months is astronomical. No I don’t know what I’ll be doing on the race, no I don’t know how I’m going to raise all that money, no I don’t know what I’m going to bring, no I don’t know what I’m going to do after the race (1.that is over a year away and 2. I haven’t even started the race yet!! Come on people!), and no I don’t know what the future will look like with out a college degree.

Okay guys, that brings me to a question I can answer. What are with those random sentences at the begging of this post? They are the bridge to the song Build My Life by Housefires. The question/concern that I get a lot when people find out how I dropped out of college and have no intention of ever going back is, how will you create a stable foundation for yourself and future family? Recently these lyrics have become my answer the “I don’t know’s”. Don’t get me wrong I still have no idea what the day to day details or even the next few years will look like, but I do know that I will build my life on the foundation of Christ’s love and it is a firm foundation.

So I guess that I do have a sort of “new years resolution” in 2019 and for the rest of my life here on earth I will build my life upon His love, I will put my trust in Him alone and I will not retake it.
