such is life..
life is not always what we think
or what we want..
but it is what we need.

still in search of a "real" job..
i know that it's a process..
and patience certainly plays a role in it as well
it certainly builds my faith

everyday it makes me more thankful
and certain of God's secure hand over my life
and i will wait patiently
some days are better than others
but in the end i know, my God is a good God.
and he cares for me.

I want my life to be meaningful
to make an effect on others
and glorify God..
my goal is to have my life be a reflection of God

"God is a consuming Fire. He alone can refine us like gold,
and separate us from the slag and dross of our selfish
individualities to fuse us to this wholeness of perfect unity
that will reflect His own Triune Life forever.."
-thomas merton, new seeds of contemplation

"... if you let God set you free from your own selfishness
and if you life for love alone" - thomas merton
