When I first began this blog I was in Australia & I was experiencing a part of my journey that I never could have imagined. What I am realizing now is that my journey was only beginning in Sydney, Australia at Hillsong. Since returning to Pittsburgh July 2009, my journey here on earth has taken turns I never thought possible & has led me through lows & highs. I experienced months of roots being torn from Sydney & needing to transplanted in Pittsburgh. I met the man of my dreams, Ronald J. Lombardo & have been so blessed by him, but have been so challenged to maximize our relationship & partnership & to never take advantage – what does that look like for us? We know that God has something amazing for us now & in the future, but how do we do that together? I’ve invested my heart & my time into this community called the South Side & this church called Lifestone. During this time I’ve realized the importance of tilling the soil because to reap a harvest from seeds planted, a well nourished soil is needed, one where weeds, thorns, roots, & stones, are removed. I mean, a soil where evil spirits are dealt with; depressed spirits are rejuvenated with love, hope, & joy; where new life is made available. And most recently my journey has led me to engagement & wedding preparation, as well as trusting my Father with a career path that seems to be so close to where my dreams have been.
What has my journey taught me? It’s taught me to trust in my Father. Period. No extra gimmicks or tricks or steps to success. That’s it, trust God. In the past couple weeks where I’ve been in employment transition, my heart has found it’s complete trust in God. I know that my God will provide in all circumstances & that he will bring the Answer to the Questions that will come.
How do I continue my journey? Stir up the gifts & dreams that the God put in my heart, spend time in prayer, find myself in the Word, allow myself to be used by creating space & being flexible.
I know that the next 5 months are going to continue to take it’s twists & turns, but as I trust God & rely on his guidance I know that He will light my path as I am found seeking Him & loving His people. I look forward to being more purposeful in documenting this journey of adventure & excitement that God has allowed me to be a part of…..
