She's Goin' Hollywood

Gonna miss her. But I also understand why she's doing this. Acting is her passion, and I agree it's necessary for all of us to examine who we really are and what we truly want in life. The outcome is unpredictable, but the Lord will be in the midst of her journey...as He is in all our journeys.

This is an issue in my life. Coming from a background where I wasn't allowed to "just be," I still have challenges getting in touch with desire. Because of this, I have trouble obeying the Word:

Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart. ~~Psalm 37:3-5

But because of Sarah's example and other wonderful mentors, this is becoming easier. There's no formula, but I do know if I pursue Him wholeheartedly, He will give.

I think you're doing the first part, Lisa -- delighting yourself in the Lord. It will be exciting to see how He answers the second. Keep pressing in!

Violet, I believe I experience more delight than at any other time, but it's taken work. Praise be to God!
