I feel the same way as Tabitha, but could not word it better! I, too, will pray for you as you struggle with unmet expectations, a sense of aloneness, and your frustration with your circumstances. Remember, you don't have to be "capable of what God needs you to do." He will work through you; just allow yourself to be a conduit and He will put you in the right places and put the right words in your mouth.<br />I love you, AmyI'm Still Learninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14708569477808470263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5101481274255289204.post-54609917608966678592010-11-05T22:23:53.733-04:002010-11-05T22:23:53.733-04:00girl-- REMEMBER NOTHING IS WRITTEN IN STONE. NOTHI...girl-- REMEMBER NOTHING IS WRITTEN IN STONE. NOTHING IS "FINAL", except Him-- "It is Finished." <br />You have freedom mixed with responsibility. Life takes SO many twists and turns, and sometimes your brain just reels around from all the spinning. ANYTHING that puts you on your face before Him is NOT BAD altogether and will be ultimately used for your good. I will be praying with you for clarity... for your future...for your choices. But remember, MANY people change plans mid-flight. Parting of finding who you are or WHO YOU ARE IN HIM, is learning who you are NOT. I will pray for endurance in the temporary.... BUT also for COURAGE for the future. Do not be afraid to make other choices, that may even scare you to death. This is real life. After highschool, especially one that has challenged you so keenly and kept you so focused, it can be positively confusing to feel like there is too much freedom or too many hoops and not someone there to push you in a direction. LISTEN TO HIM. Don't waste your loneliness. I want you to email me your mailing address-- will you???<br />We love you and are *PROUD* of you, Ellen! You are growing into your skin! You are growing INTO Him. Keep pressing.<br />Love, tabthe Stork Nesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06643677100908826114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5101481274255289204.post-91665420195316028572010-10-25T00:55:57.349-04:002010-10-25T00:55:57.349-04:00ah yes! much better :)ah yes! much better :)mirandagailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05465044722388322408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5101481274255289204.post-29584225534857932382010-10-24T18:30:03.354-04:002010-10-24T18:30:03.354-04:00Is this better?

I read it anyway as best as I could. <br /><br />I'm sorry that there is much frustration, but I'm delighted that your growing closer to Him! Keep us updated!
