Life is either a Great Adventure or Nothing-Helen Keller

As you have noticed, if you keep up with my blog at all, I changed the name to "a girl who is going out on a limb." Since this is MY blog, I have decided to dedicate for the next x amount of time to one particular thing: trying stuff. Tonight as I was remembering 2007 I thought about a sermon that I woke up to in Maggie Valley, NC with the loud, deep, almost man-like voice of the one and only Joyce Meyer. It was one of those divine appointments with the TV, if you know what I mean :). I happened to be agonizing over the decision to go back to Montreat or come home for a year. I had prayed and asked for every sign one could ask for. Well I wake up at probably 9 a.m. and I hear her say these exact words: "You don't know what the will of God is? You scared to make a move...?" (I'm going YES Joyce, that's me!!) "Well get out there and try some stuff." I've been thinking a lot about Proverbs 16:9. There is a precursor to the Lord "ordering our steps" We have to DO something first, we have to make a plan. So with that said, I plan to try new stuff everyday. I am going to document and everything :). It may be as small as trying a new food or exercise or as big as some adventurous activity. I am going to make a plan everyday and then see how it goes. The goal of this is to find new things that I like in order to develop or add to the person that I am so to speak. So stay tuned.

We make our own plans,

but the LORD decides

where we will go.-Proverbs 16:9
