Just A-S-K

My mom and I have recently enlisted each other as prayer partners. Aside from Scripture, we have been reading "Partners in Prayer" by John Maxwell. I've been reminded about "how to ask" when praying. It's simply "A-S-K": ask - seek - knock.

As I face yet another transition in my life, I have learned to ask, seek, and knock. I have asked, I have sought, and I have found a few different avenues. I have prayed for guidance re: which avenue to take, but I guess I'll never know until I "prayerfully knock".

Right now, I'm at a crossroad. I don't know where I'll end up geographically, but one thing I do know: that I desire to always be in the center of God's will. I constantly ask Him to lead me where He wants me to be and do what He wants me to do. So, whether that be here in Orlando or back in Honolulu or even in the North Pole - wherever He leads, I'll go.

Earlier today, I showed up for an appointment that did not give me any clarity prior to the event. The lady on the phone did not want to disclose too much information, but I went anyway, just to check it out. Apparently, it's a different type of career service where they charge you an upfront fee of $3K-$7K, regardless of the results. I politely thanked the "counselor" and left. Later on today, I have a 1PM conference call with my previous employer in Honolulu. If God decides to completely open this door, I'll be moving back to Honolulu, in God's time.

Wherever He leads, I'll go.
