Faith, Faith, and Definitely More Faith!

I will officially be a junior in about a week and I honestly have been so confused with God. I still have two more years of highschool and I don't know what God wants me to do or who to be. That may seem so petty to some of you for the reason that you may already be facing the world and our Lord hasn't revealed Himself or your plan yet. Some of you are taking up His plan already! Some of you may be in the same boat as me, just anxiously waiting for God to move the Oar and paddle or to just finally end up on whatever shore He is gonna take you to. Some of you aren't even thinking about your future yet.
      But we ALL are in one ocean together. The Ocean of Faith and Trust.

Recently, I have had to say goodbye to some dear friends of mine. They are at that age where they start their lives in college. Just another leap of faith with God, another stepping stone to His plan.

So, Haley? What is the point?
Answer: Wherever you go, Whatever place He takes you, Whenever you don't understand, just have Faith and Trust. 
But Haley, I hear that all the time, that is typical advice.
Answer: You know why we always here that ALL THE TIME? Because we ALWAYS need a reminder. See, it is so easy to just give up, but why give up when you haven't even seen the greatest part of the plan? Because it is easy to? Well, stop being weak. Reminder: You can do all things through Christ who gives you strength. Another Reminder: God doesn't call the equipped, He equips the called.

The Point:

 All of you new highschool students, the "almost done" highschool students, the new college students, thee "almost done" college students, and all the other ones that are still confused; no matter what, GO! Go for our Lord and He will equip you. He knows what you need; He just knows. But the biggest obstacle for us is to Trust and have Faith. Endure.
Allow God to take the oar, or the paddle, or the wheel in the boat that you are in. There will be storms, humongous waves, thunder, doom and gloom; BUT God will take you to shore and He will make sure that everything is right, good, pure, and holy. And do you really think that God doesn't know which wave is gonna hit you the hardest? Or what thunder bolt will strike you? Or the reason why you are having a problem trusting Him? God does not go back on His promises; He is nothing like the people who have broken your trust and spat it out like it was nothing. Cool thing about our God is He is not us or any human being that has hurt you. And the even better, coolest thing ever is that God will go wherever you go, and will stay wherever you stay. (Ruth 1:16) He isn't gonna dump you somewhere that He knows you wouldn't be okay, or able to survive at. He will be with you. Through it all. Through the hurt. Through the love. Through the choices. Through the craziness. Through the moves. Through this Plan that He has made to prosper us. Through everything; it all!

God has been telling me to do something and I was in that moment where I had no clue what He is trying to tell me. It was frustrating. But, through doing this post, I now know.
 
      "Haley Marie Dorsey, Trust and Faith. I will carry you through. I will love you through it. I will hold you together. I will be there. I will bring nothing but greatness. I am proud to be your father. Go. And I will be a right beside you."

I also believe that He has been telling that to some of you. Or some parts of it. Or just one word. But He has Called you. Just don't give up. It takes a lot of faith, faith, and definitely more faith!

With great love,
Haley Dorsey
