Independent

The last week has had so many changes. I have starting moving a lot of my decorations to Drew's apartment so I don't have to move all of it at once. My friend Julie was with me moving my stuff, and we both just stared at the walls. We were a little freaked out. I haven't been out of that room in 10 years. All of the different moments we had growing up together were flashing before our eyes. I have all of my Mary Kay business supplies with me and a plant in my room. To my right is my wedding dress and a box bellow it full of wedding supplies. I started having a freak out moment! I just wanted to throw up! It's not that I don't want to marry Drew it's the fact that I'm going to have to become Independent for the first time.

The United States is dominated by this thought of being Independent. We never have one thought of leaning on somebody else or asking for help. There has to be a nice middle to everything. We don't want to be mooching off of other people, but we don't want to be so Independent that we don't let God ever step in.

I believe that in order to become Independent you must also at the same time become Dependent. God wants his children to be smart with their money, but he also wants to give them blessings too. God also wants us to lean on Him when out of the box days happen.

Proverbs 3:5-7

Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. Don't be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the LORD and turn away from evil.

Provers 3:9-10

Honor the LORD with your wealth and with the best part of everything you produce. Then he will fill your barns with grain, and your vats will overflow with good wine.
