'So it was not you who sent me here, but God' (Genesis. 45:8)
God's plan is far beyond us- we are taken and used, like Joseph.
'Be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God - what is good and acceptable and perfect' (Romans 12:2)
Prayer is a way that God guides us. Just be close to Him, open your heart, your soul and your mind to what he has to say.
'If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit' (Galatians 5:25)
Let us walk and move in the grace of God, doing all things for and with Him.
'And all this works together for our good and his good, and the good of others' (Romans 8:28).
Every situation that we find ourselves in, whether it be good or bad, painful or joyful, will somehow, in some way, work out to be His perfect plan, and ultimately bring glory to God.
Everyone goes through rough times, or find ourselves in tough situations where we are stumped, and have no idea what to do. You may think that one way is better than the other . . . but the constant haze in your mind is no help.
Praying for guidance seems to be getting old. You know that God answers all prayers in his perfect time . . .
Sometimes, i feel like there is no time left, and i wonder "did i miss God's guidance?"
-stop looking for something that's been right in front of you all along-

Lauren, your friends are here praying for you. We will always be there if you should ever ask or need us to be. I've never been very good at decifering how God answers my prayers but when the decision you must make comes about, you will know what to do because it will be the only thing that makes sense and feels right in your heart. I'm praying for you Lauren, God bless.
I love you Lauren (I sense you could use some love...oh and coffee...I look forward to that :D).
Lauren, I just totally stumbled across your blog site on accident...or maybe through divine providence - either way I was completely taken aback when I was reading and realized whose blog I happened to be reading. I didn't know you liked writing and its been so long since we've been together that your blog is like being able to look into the window of your heart...I love you, you know that? Someday I hope we can be together again, until then I guess e-mails and phone calls will have to work....I think that they should be closer together though. I apologize for not e-mailing back yet but last week was a nightmare as far as school is concerned, this week is starting out that way. I promise I will write soon though, I haven't forgotten you - as a matter of fact I think about you often....Random thought - your mom is an awesome cook:o) Wow, this is so great, finding your blog I mean...I think God planned that. Take haert Lauren, keep your focus on Christ and He will lead you in the way He would have you to go. He has a plan for you and will reveal it to you in His time, He knows your heart... I love you girl and I am praying for you...
Love Always,
Brownie Girl:o)
