"Do you want to go on an adventure?"

I think in everday life sometimes we get so caught up in it that we forget what life is all about.

As I've been dealing with figuring out what to do with my school situation, I was reminded today of what life is about. Just under a year ago, I came home from Los Angeles. And I remember thinking that I was shutting the door to that book of my life, and beginning to write a new novel in the series of my personal life. I was excited about the prospect of this new novel. But as I look back over the past 11 months, I realize there could have been so much more good excitement in that novel, but I chose to let life weigh me down, I chose to live in defeat and not really have a purpose that drove me. Not that the novel wasn't what it should be, but I can see where I allowed the pages to get dull by hiding away, and keeping to myself constantly.

This morning on my way to work as I was thinking about making this move to the college 15 hrs away, I heard God speak, "Do you want to go on an adventure with Me?" And I thought to myself, "HECK YES I DO!!" I mean come on, this is GOD we are talking about. THE Almighty God, the One who intricately formed us, and He wants ME to go on an adventure with Him?!?!?! Wow! Woot! Let's go! *giggles*
And now I think back over this day, I think God was speaking about more than just college. College will be a grand adventure, but I think He was also talking about my day to day, everyday life.

Will I allow it to be an adventure? Will I live it with excitement and purpose each day? With the mindset that it IS an adventure no matter how "mundane" it seem so to me? Will I let the pages of this novel be one of excitement and adventure? And not just a few of the pages, but all of the pages individually?
