I keep thinking I'm going to arrive at some point in life and everything is going to come together, but I'm realizing that there's no such thing. I'm learning that I've got my priorities all wrong. I'm not going to be fulfilled when I find a certain job or marry a certain person or move to a certain place. The only thing that really matters is glorifying God no matter where I'm at or who I'm with (although I'm not always sure what that looks like on a day-to-day basis..I'm learning). The things that really count are relationships not accomplishments. In the last few weeks when I've needed a friend, I've been challenged to reflect on what kind of friend I am to others. I'm realizing that I don't always do a very good job. I'm not always the kind of friend I'd like to have. Growth is good even if it's painful at times.

You're wrong about the friend thing...you're always a good friend!
