I’ve changed so much lately. It used to freak me out that I have no idea what I’m doing for a living. All through high school I believed that I needed to have my future figured out… I’ve always been driven and that has tied me to feeling like i have to know. Well… I don’t know and I don’t care. haha. I’m so excited about life now. I want to go and figure out what I want to do. It isn’t scary that I don’t know. It’s exciting. I'm young, I have a ton of opportunities, and soon a GT degree. God has brought me this far and he will carry me the rest of the way.
Letting go of the having to know has changed my life. I’m living by faith. Discovering who I am and getting to know God. The more he shows me the more I love him.

Hey Eddie! I just found out on facebook you had a blog and decided to take a look at it. Turns out most of what you write are things I can relate to. This post in particular is really good and reminds me of something I read a while ago: "Living a life of faith means never knowing where you are being led. But it does mean loving and knowing the One who is leading."
For a long time in my life I had things planned out and I thought I knew what was gonna happen to me. That easily made me think I had things under my control - which is a lie. It's been some months now that it all started to change and I realized my plans were nothing but MY own plans (and not God's). Back then I wasnt leaving any room at all for God to do whatever He wanted with my life. Like you, I'm still studying and right now I dont know what's gonna happen or what my life's gonna look like in the future, but I'm ok with that. I dont have to figure things out by myself anymore.
There's a song I really like that talks about all of this... it's "Here I am" by Downhere. Here is a link to the lyrics: http://www.songlyrics.com/downhere/here-i-am-lyrics/
Anyway, I added your blog to my Google Reader, so I'll be reading you from now on :P
um abraço from Brazil!
Thanks Gui! This was really encouraging. Keep me up to date on what happens in your life. I'm really interested in knowing where God leads you.
Thanks for the song. I went and listened to it. I'll have to add it to my library.
I always liked the Brazilian ç.
Un abrazo de Miami. God bless
