46- It's Incremental, But It's Something

The Title: It's about small small changes.

Moving Right Along: It's hard for me to really point out in what ways God has helped me grow or change. Not saying that He hasn't done this, just saying it's such a subtle process, it's often passed by in my mind. I recently encountered a situation (a good situation) and this is when I saw some change.

To be as vague and as specific as possible: If I met someone, I would immediately begin to wonder what kind of friendship would come of it. Should I trust this person, be around them, ignore them. If they made a promise and broke it, I'd be super effected by it. It was a mess.

I handle things differently, now that I am trusting God. I trust that every encounter I have has a purpose to it. No not everyone I meet is out to do me harm, not everyone I meet will end up being a lifelong friend, but I will learn something from them or teach them something. There's a reason God created these encounters, so I don't stress about them, I learn to enjoy them for what they are.

This is something small that I don't even know how it happened. But I learned that I am trusting God. I've learned that He won't lead me astray. And the hardest thing ever, that I'm still working on everyday, it learning to love people. This is my next journey, join me :)
