I'll go where you want me to go!

"It may not be on the mountain height 

Or over the stormy sea, It may not be at the battle’s front My Lord will have need of me. But if, by a still, small voice he calls To paths that I do not know, I’ll answer, dear Lord, with my hand in thine: I’ll go where you want me to go."

Three years ago today, I started a new journey that brought me to where I am now. In my wildest dreams I never imagined that I would have made the choice to move across the country. I wanted to be close to my children and this seemed the most logical because of the proximity. I prayed and prayed to get a different answer, but again and again this seemed to be where I was meant to be. I have always believed in Divine will, that He will put me where He wants me to be. Afraid of the unknown, yet I trusted that if He brought me to it, He would take care of me and take me through it. My faith held strong and dispelled the fear deep inside me. The city with the highest crime rating in Canada of all places. He has given me many opportunities over the years to build my strength and courage so I thought I was caught up, but apparently not.  So much has happened over these past three years and there are days when fear tries to overwhelm me. But I hold on to my faith. I will never run away, I will wait until He calls and sends me on another path. I don't know why He chose here, but I will do my best until he is ready to take me somewhere else. I leave it in His hands. "I’ll go where you want me to go, dear Lord, Over mountain or plain or sea; I’ll say what you want me to say, dear Lord; I’ll be what you want me to be."
