set sail, brave adventurer, into the unknown and beyond

I see this opportunity as a launching pad for the rest of my life.

I know nothing of what doors will fly open and ones that will be shut tight. It's the fear of the unknown. The fear that should (and it personally does) drive us to the trust in God...ie having faith in Him and all He can do.

I was talking with my dad just moments ago. He told me how this Christmas is extra special. He said its possibly the last one as an entire family. This realization made me think about a Semi Truck hitting a shoddy built house....ya I know...no real connection. But it made me think about how limited my time with my family is. I finally discovered what Season with God Im in....Advent....preparing the way! (in the real Advent's case, preparing the way for the Messiah's birth). It's humbling, and I sometimes take it for granted, but now knowing...Im trying to be studious: Learning what it means to follow the Spirit; learning about love; understanding sufferings roles and faces; consulting my dad and Daddy about things Im seeing.......its not wasted.

Im truly blessed to be in this position...Humbled, Honored, Hyped.....oh yeah dude

Set Sail, Brave Adventurer
Im in the dark, no light near my path
A voice cries out, clear and true
Take a step forward
I cannot comply, what if I fall?
Will I be left to die?
Get a hold of yourself
He knows, and He guides my steps
I trust you, Lord this is for You
The step is taken, and what a sight
The light shines, and darkness fails
Proven existance of the two
There truly is a God who loves
Truly, I need you
