Turnaround

Yesterday, I was prepared to write a lyrical, drawn-out post about how I've felt so very lost lately. How my brain hasn't been seeming to function on full capacity, my life feels like it has no direction, and I'm drowning in a whirlwind of unwritten words, harrowing thoughts, and distraught emotions. The cause? Unknown. But that's how I was feeling.

Today, I get to write about how God took the reins and is bringing me to a new place in my life, working in the specialty I've wanted since I graduated school; OB.

It's funny, every time I start to grab a hold of those reins, try to steer myself in a certain direction, He has other, better plans for me. You would think by now that I've grown accustomed to handing myself over to Him, resolving over and over that I need to give up control on the things that I cannot, but for some reason, I still try. It's unconscious, but it happens.

Now, it's time for my life to step off in another direction. I'm terrified, but oh so very excited.

Unfortunately, I have to make a few adjustments along the way that will test me some more.

But I'm prepared.
