Destiny by Design

Wow. We are in our 7th week already. Really time flies here, we are past the half way point of lecture phase and outreach is just around the corner. This week we are studying Destiny by Design with David. I didn’t know that that was this weeks topic until Monday morning in class. The crazy thing is how God was already preparing me for the week without me knowing it. Now you know me, I always have been and likely always will be the girl with a million ideas of what to do in life. People here always ask “what are your plans for after DTS?” And I usually tell them a couple before they get the idea and change the topic … This weekend though I started thinking a lot about what it is that I actually am going to do after DTS. Go back home and work? Stay in YWAM? Go to University? The options are endless. I spent Sunday afternoon with a student in the FCD and we spent some time looking through U of N schools and talking about different options. Then came Monday morning when I found out we were going to be studying destiny. Where was this course years ago? Seriously. There is an acronoym for what we are learning.

This week taught me so much that I know I will continue to learn from. I know with this knowledge and more time in prayer God will reveal more and more to me the plans that he has for me. Instead now of begging God to tell me what that plan is I’ve realized that there is a possibility that if he told me what his plans are now, I wouldn’t believe him. So I know that in his perfect timing, so long as I continue to seek him, he will reveal it to me.

In fact this week he already started to show me a bit. I love the way God works in me. How he shows me a glimpse of something one day, and than weeks or months later he brings it back to remind me of what I already started learning and then he teaches me more.
