Hindsight

I guess I do a lot of thinking when I’m walking to campus, since there’s much more walking than last year. I passed by this car with a USC sticker on its windshield, and I don’t know why, but it struck me that I go to USC.

I know, I know. Duh. We know you go there.

But back in high school, even though I wanted to come here so bad, it was unthinkable. There was no way we could afford it, and I had pretty much decided that I was just going to University of Maryland, College Park.

I think back to all the things that have lead to this point, or at least, however many I can remember. And I know it’s lame, but I tear up a little.

To think that where we are is not by chance. But actually a series of events so set in motion by something much greater. God does indeed love me. That he crafted such a distinct destiny for me that I am only beginning to explore.

Thank you for this day, God. And every single day that you have made for a purpose I cannot see right now. Help me to live by your greater calling and to not get so bogged down by just what I want. Because your way is perfect.
