Today, I did something I had never done before.
Something that I have known was going to happen for months, but that I had put off doing.
Something that I thought I was ready for, but it turns out I wasn't quite.
Something that I did with a pounding heart and tears in my eyes…
I turned in my letter of resignation.

And as I handed it in, I was plagued by a rush of thoughts:
What am I doing?
This is my financial security.
I don't know how to be a missionary.
I don't know how to preach.
I don't even know how to keep a blog regularly.

I DON'T…
have to do ANY of those things.

I just have to being willing to let God do them.
He will provide me with the finances necessary.
He will teach me what to do and give me the words to say.

It's a seemingly small thing, I know, but this one act was a huge step for me. It was me letting go of the first job I had using my college degree, of the job I've had for 8 years that I really enjoy, of working with people who have become my family… and officially moving on to what has prepared for me next…  Greater things I can't even imagine (Eph 3:20).  And, as bittersweet as today was, I can't wait to see what is in store!!
